File- This Sept. 25, 2011 file photo shows New York Yankees' Nick Swisher celebrating his two-run home run off Minnesota Twins pitcher Esmerling Vasquez in the fourth inning of a baseball game in Minneapolis. Two people familiar with the negotiations said Swisher has agreed to a $56 million, four-year contract with the Indians, who used the free agent outfielder's deep Ohio connections to convince him to join the club. The people spoke on condition of anonymity Sunday Dec. 23, 2012, because Swisher must take a physical before the deal can be finalized. The Indians are expected to announce Swisher's signing after Christmas, one of the people said. (AP Photo/Jim Mone, File)
