CLEVELAND -- Soon to be known as the Guardians, the Indians aren't leaving home anytime soon.

Also, team is partnering with the city, Cuyahoga County and the state to spend $435 million for renovations on the ballpark, which opened as Jacobs Field in 1994 and is now one of Major League Baseball's oldest facilities.
