Olson is expected to take on a sizeable role as the team's left-handed specialist now that Boone Logan (lat) has been moved to the 60-day DL, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Olson dominated left-handed hitters in 34 appearances for Triple-A Columbus this year, holding that group to a .125 (9-for-71) average. Overall, the 27-year-old posted a 3.21 ERA with an impressive 11.6 K/9 through 42 innings for the Clippers.

Olson was recalled from Triple-A Columbus on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

With Josh Tomlin (hamstring) moving to the disabled list, Olson will head back to the majors to provide some bullpen help to the big-league club. In two appearances with Cleveland, the left-hander didn't allow a run and struck out one batter in an inning of work.

Olson was optioned to Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

The southpaw appeared twice since being called up to the big leagues, amassing one scoreless inning in total. However, with Austin Jackson returning from the disabled list, there was no room for Olson in the big leagues. Olson will head back to the minors to further his development as a reliever.

Olson's contract was purchased by the Indians on Friday and he will join the team immediately.

EDGE Analysis

Olson will get his first call-up since being claimed by off waivers by the Indians last season, though his stay may be temporary one. The left-hander, who owns a 3.32 ERA and an exceptional 52:11 K:BB over 40.2 innings with Triple-A Columbus this season, takes the bullpen spot of Boone Logan, who was placed on the 10-day DL with a lat strain. Look for Olson to be used exclusively in low-leverage situations while he's with the team.

Olson was outrighted to Triple-A Columbus on Friday and placed on the 7-day DL with an illness.

EDGE Analysis

Designated for assignment earlier this month, Olson passed through waivers unclaimed and will now report outright to Columbus. Olson, 26, has bounced between three organizations this year and has struggled at every stop, posting a 5.27 ERA in 41 innings between three Triple-A affiliates. It's hard to imagine he will be among the team's September callups now that he's off the 40-man roster.

Olson was designated for assignment Thursday following the Indians' win over the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Olson was DFA'd in a corresponding move to Michael Martinez getting claimed off waivers Thursday. The southpaw was originally claimed off waivers early in July after being DFA'd by the Royals, and before that, the Yankees. This will mark the third time he has been designated for assignment this season, but could get snagged by a team looking for left-handed organizational depth.

Olson was claimed off waivers by Cleveland on Saturday, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Olson was designated for assignment on July 5 by Kansas City and was scooped up by the Indians during his waiver period. The 26-year-old has spent the majority of this season with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre where he's compiled a 5.27 ERA and 1.43 WHIP over 27.1 innings. He'll head to Triple-A Columbus now to continue his 2016 campaign.

Olson has been designated for assignment Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Olson was claimed off waivers by the Royals in mid-June and made five appearances with Triple-A Omaha before being DFA'd on Tuesday. During 6.1 innings of work with Omaha, Olson compiled a 2.84 ERA with a 1.89 WHIP, allowing 10 hits and only striking out two batters during that span. He struggled earlier this season with the Yankees' Triple-A club, and has only made 12 appearances in the majors during his four year professional career.

Olson was claimed off waivers by the Royals on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Olson was designated for assignment by the Yankees last week to clear room on the 40-man roster, but he was scooped up by Kansas City and will be assigned to Triple-A Omaha. The pitcher struggled to the tune of a 5.27 ERA with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and can be stretched out as a starter in addition to working out of the bullpen.

EDGE Analysis

The Yankees selected the contract of Anthony Swarzak in a corresponding move, so Olson was moved to clear a space on the 40-man roster. The lefty has struggled to the tune of a 5.27 ERA at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in 11 appearances this season.
