Indians activated 1B Matt LaPorta from the 15-day disabled list. As expected. LaPorta has been sidelined since mid-June with a right ankle sprain. He returns to a .242/.309/.424 batting line to go along with eight homers and 31 RBI over 220 plate appearances. Carlos Santana saw most of the playing time at first base during his absence, but he'll now head back behind the plate.
