It’s not quite baseball season, but some of the top prospects in the Indians’ organization are in town now for the 15th edition of the team’s winter development program. The program runs Jan. 16-27 in Cleveland and in Goodyear, Ariz., and is designed to help acclimate the players to Progressive Field and Cleveland. Along with various workouts, they hear speakers such as Cavaliers General Manager Chris Grant, Browns coach Pat Shurmur, former Boston Red Sox manager Terry Francona, former Indians pitcher Jason Bere, Peter Gammons of the MLB Network, St. Ignatius football coach Chuck Kyle and Vanderbilt baseball coach Tim Corbin.

Players participating are: right-hander Austin Adams, right-hander Rob Bryson, catcher Chun Chen, outfielder Aaron Cunningham, infielder Juan Diaz, outfielder Tim Fedroff, outfielder Jordan Henry, left-hander T.J. McFarland, outfielder Thomas Neal, catcher Roberto Perez and right-hander Tyler Sturdevant.

Plain Dealer photographer Chuck Crow spent Thursday with the prospects. On this day, they started with yoga and stretching followed by a session with a speaker. The prospects then traveled to Case Western Reserve University for fundamental, agility and conditioning work, including a throwing session. After lunch, they heard two more speakers before calling it a day.
