Indians' Brady Aiken: Preparing to tackle first full season

Aiken will open the season at Low-A Lake County and start the Captains' home opener April 8.

The ballyhoo behind Aiken was loud and proud when Cleveland drafted him with its top pick in 2015. A series of arm troubles led to Tommy John surgery and caused the prospect to fall off the radar in many circles. However, all indications are that the left-hander will begin 2017 healthier than he's been since entering professional baseball. Aiken is only 20 years old, and he can surely put himself back on the prospect map with a strong performance in his first full campaign.
