"The Indians are expected to make a decision Monday on whether they'll exercise the 2012 club options on center fielder Grady Sizemore and right-hander Fausto Carmona.

GM Chris Antonetti said he'd most likely wait until the deadline to make the call and it looks like that's what he'll do. A decision on all big-league club options must be made three days after the final game of the World Series, which was Friday.

The Indians hold a $9 million option on Sizemore and a $7 million option on Carmona. Sizemore, 29, can become a free agent if the option is declined. Carmona would still be under team control if the option is declined because he doesn't have six years in service time. "
