The 2015 Cleveland Indians

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Indians may have three co- Cy Young winners.
 
Between Kluber, Carrasco, and Bauer...good lord could we have dominant pitching...and then Salazar and House...solid

Central division favorites baby !

Salazar needs to return to that form when we first called him up. Im just curious about the bullpen, in the MLB it seems like every other year a bullpen is having troubles.

Anyone play with opening day lineups yet?

FWI Kluber is pitching at 4pm on STO

Much like today's lineup:

CF Bourn
2B Kipnis
LF Brantley
1B Santana
DH Moss
C Gomes
RF Raiburn
3B Chisenhall
SS Ramirez

Depending on if Swisher is be back. He is just now starting to run the bases today.

It probably won't happen due to loyalty but I wouldn't mind having Ramirez or Gomes hitting second.

They'll probably have a DH until Swisher comes back though, right?

I always forget the Astros are in the AL. Move Santana or Moss to DH and put Raybern in RF. Book it. Take it to the bank.

Seems a vast majority of fans knew this was going to happen, speaking out about this knowledge right after it happened.

The organization needed to hear your voice, guys.

Reminescent of when I called exactly how many games some shitty pitcher would go for until he got hurt a few years ago.

Did the same with Floyd this year.
 
Figures. Can't believe Floyd was given a contract with a guaranteed rotation spot.

My problem with the guaranteed rotation spot wasn't the injury risk, it was that I didn't believe a healthy Gavin Floyd at this point in his career was a better option than what the Indians already had. I'm fairly sure they would have given the #5 spot to House, with Salazar heading off to Columbus, which would have been awful (not that House is bad, but I just don't see any sense in sending down a guy with the upside of Salazar so they could start a 32 year old coming off two major injuries, who before his injuries was an average pitcher at best).

Doesn't matter now anyway.
 
@The Oi

When are you going to post your prediction of the Indians record in picture format? One of my favorite parts of spring training.
 
I can't imagine Jose Ramirez really has that much value. He's a decent player and all, but come on. I'd trade him for a difference maker in a heart beat and hand the position over to Lindor.
