Cleveland Indians

[edit]

Price was traded from the Red Sox to the Cleveland Indians with Nick Hagadone and Justin Masterson for Víctor Martínez on July 31, 2009.[3] He finished the 2009 season with the Kinston Indians. In 2010 he was promoted to the Akron Aeros, and finished the season with a 6–3 record and 3.25 ERA in 40 games.[2] After spending the offseason with the Peoria Javelinas in the Arizona Fall League, Price spent 2011 with Akron, going 2–3 with a 2.79 ERA in 28 games.[2] He split the 2012 and 2013 seasons between Akron and the Columbus Clippers, with his best numbers coming in 2013 with Akron, finishing that part of the season with a 1–0 record and 0.56 ERA in 12 games.[2] He was added to the team's 40-man roster on November 20, 2013.[4]

After spending the 2014 season again between the now-Akron RubberDucks and Columbus, Price made his major league debut on September 1, 2014. He gave up a home run to Miguel Cabrera in his first game and made two further appearances that September, all in relief.[5] After playing in four games for Columbus early in the 2015 season,[2] Price decided to retire rather accept a demotion from Columbus to Akron.[6]
