Michael Aubrey will be called up to the Cleveland Indians on Saturday, KTBS has learned through sources in Cleveland.  The former Southwood High School and Tulane star has bounced around the lower rungs of the Indians farm system through the first five seasons of his professional career.  Until the first part of May, Aubrey had never had an at bat above the "AA" level in the Minors.  After shuffling off to Buffalo ("AAA" Indians squad), Aubrey ripped the cover off the ball, hitting a robust .341 over his first ten games. 

The Indians are expected to make a pair of moves on the roster today, clearing a spot for Aubrey by Saturday.  For the 11th overall selection of the 2003 June Amateur draft who has battled numerous injuries over the past five seasons, it's a promotion that will be well worth the wait.
