I don't think Boston lost as much as some people think. Bay is a good player, at a much cheaper price, and he will actually play defense. LA made out,...
I actually left Cleveland and moved out to Los Angeles back in october. Its weird to see Casey Blake and Manny follow me out here. The Dodgers organization...
My Time Warner pooped out Wed. night, and wasn't restored until Friday, so I've been out of touch. Thursday, my brother and I visited the Lake County Captains...
The announcers during the game last night (radio) said that Victor will probably go out on a rehab assignment about the time the current road trip ends. He is...
All you hear is the chirping of crickets. The problem is that you apparently can't translate what they are really saying: Wait until next year! ... From:...
If they acted like this year was going to do anything to improve the next year or two (other than getting a couple of prospects), then it would be worth paying...
Two things. First, Eric Wedge is not the one to be yelled at concerning the closer. That should be directed at Mark Shapiro. Wedge can only play the players...
... Mickey's right: in this Baseball Prospectus piece, John Perrotto has Wedge all but calling Shapiro out to get him a Real Closer: *The Indians, at 49-63 and...
I posted a snip from an article a little bit ago, that quoted someone from the Indians' minor league system. It's an organizational decision not to groom...
//*Perez certainly has the stuff to be considered a closer, but Wedge doesn't seem to be too keen on moving the 25-year-old into that role. "He's been very...
... I'd take that, of course. Those guys were real good. Just not at closing. But they sure had some great years setting up. And we could use that, too. ...
... Maybe the kid they got from LA in the Blake deal is the closer of the surprisingly-near future. Except, of course, the Wedgster would never consider going...
Lordy, you're right. I had mercifully forgotten about that. I withdraw the editorial comment, but still wonder if the ex-Dodger wunderkind will get a shot at...

... Interesting list. But I don't understand what you mean, because few of these were groomed to be closers, and all obviously went through the minors. See...
Yes. Manning got on his case for sleeping, but then forgave him because that's just how the game was going. What Manning missed was that there were TWO teams...
... What makes you think any top free agent will come to Cleveland? They wouldn't come during the Jacobs years, when the Indians made the playoffs every year...
yes that's right. Eckersley was a starter. Jose Mesa was once the Indians opening day starter. If I remember correctly, they basically took away one of...
