The Indians could have got a quality veteran to solve the utility question, and put a few more butts in the seats by bringing back a fan favorite and potential Hall-of-Fame inductee. What was it, 1.2 mil? I doubt they will get a decent UTL guy for much less, certainly not one who can generate as much fan goodwill, which they wil

Hey guys, Brewers fan here. Just thinking about the past couple seasons and was curious where Matt LaPorta stands in terms of big league playing time in 2010. Is he ready to start? Bat off the bench? Another season in AAA? This kid was ticket

Former Indians pitcher Tim Belcher is the team’s new pitching coach, the first member of manager Manny Acta’s staff.
Belcher has spent the past eight years as a special assistant to baseball operations in the Indians organization. He was responsible for evaluating players in Cleveland’s system and scouted other teams

6 months in advance, Manny Acta has already named his opening day starter. Wow. It's Jake Westbrook according to the Boston Globe.
Any thoughts on why Acta did it so early, or any thoughts on Westbrook at all?

Great to see one of our favorites return to the Tribe. Sandy should be a great coach as a former catcher.
I have never been so glad about a base coach before lol
pretty bad when the biggest star on the team is the 1st base coach!

I see we may see a Cliff Lee and ALCS MVP C.C. Sabathia showdown. Downright hilarious that title starved "mistake by the lake" wouldnt pony up and keep one of these guys. Another reason why its been 16,375 days since a professional sporst title or even an NBA Finals win in that city. LOL!
Ill take 0-16 any da

There were ex-Indians scattered all over the place in the post season. Why do the Indians let all these guys go instead of keeping them, winning, selling out the stadium and making millions? You had that formula going like a charm in the 90s. Wha' happened? Doesn't the current owner want to make money?

Ok I want Grady Sizemore on my team being logical what will it take to pry him away from the Indians. Lets say that I'm a GM and am willing to make a fair offer. I have some young talent as well as some veterans, I have outfielders, infielders,and pitching. Throw out some

The Tampa Bay Rays have signed Derek Shelton as their hitting coach. Now we'll see what he's made of...
We have a good idea that Manny Acta will get the manager job since he's being pushed by the Indians and the local media, who will fill our role as hitting coach? No, n

No, its the truth.... Washington Nationals (former) skipper who lost 103 games this year is set to meet Cleveland Indians General Manager, Mark Shapiro, for the 2010 opening managerial position. As if 97 games losses weren't enough? It was 97 games (I think). Regardless, Dolan must t

CC Sabathia vs. Cliff Lee in Game One of the World Series......can it get any worse ?
Wait, it can, you guys have arguably the worst team in the NFL with the worst coach, and you just traded your best player to the Jets for nothing.

Don't like it at all. I wanted Bobby V, but I'm sure it came down to us being cheap.
Well, we got our latino influence now on the team now.
My only hope is the Jon Nunnally is our hitting coach.

Thank god. I no longer have to watch this terrible excuse of a baseball team. I hope Eric Wedge and his coaches have their lockers already cleaned out, so we can hire someone who is baseball smart and will actually manage the game isn't of standing around looking stupid, in some wind breaker trash bag looking outfit, the sad news however is that 2010 will be much like this season.
