Indians outfielder David Dellucci will miss at least the first three Cactus League games after cutting his left thumb while packing for spring training. Dellucci, who throws left-handed, slammed a trailer tailgate on his thumb at his home in Baton Rouge, La., on Feb. 1. He needed three stitches to close the gash and a hand specialist performed minor surgery.
