Notes:
- Last I checked, Cody Allen was in the Twins minor league system but not on their 40-man. He could be in Siberia for all I know.
- Guys like Trevor Bauer and Brad Miller who played on the Indians this season are only having their WAR with their new team counted.
- Former Indian Lonnie Chisenhall is on the Pittsburgh Pirates but has missed the entire season thus far due to injury.
- Carlos Gonzalez and Mark Reynolds are both free agents, but have played in the majors in 2019.
- Cameron Maybin and Matt Joyce are both included since they were around in March/April of this season, despite not playing for the Indians during the regular season.
