To the Dolan family.......as we transition out of this holiday season........... We're about to pi$& away the pre-arbitration and arbitration years of some of the best young starting pitching in the game. Mr. Dolan..... Oh wait. The "No offense" was simply supposed to acknowledge the fact that "we" (and I'm using that term more loosely with every passing second) won't score any damn runs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thelonebillsfan Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Wolf and Gimenez are nice pieces, Rosario needs to move to 2B or center but he can still be effective. Greene is nothing. It's not the worst return in the world for the Indians but it is really, really bad even if it was just for Lindor, for Lindor AND Carrasco? Brutally bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mse326 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 I mean I get that with Dolan being who he is Lindor was going to be traded. And I get that knowing that teams were going to offer less. But there is no way this was the best offer. Not only do you get a horrendous return you don't even get the most you could have. This is Manfred needs to say no "for good of the game" level bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FGK Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 When I moved to CA in 2017 I adopted the Padres as my west coast/NL team. I liked the small (for the west coast) market and the vibe of the team, and I didn't feel like I was jumping on a bandwagon because they hadn't gotten good yet and the Dodgers were already, well, the Dodgers. So routing for anyone else in their division felt like voting for the underdog. It's been bananas to me to see how differently the two teams have approached the last couple years. Both teams are really good at player development. But the Padres have used it to get a core of young, cost-controlled guys and then burning the excess for pieces to help them compete. Cleveland uses their good player development as an excuse to never pay anyone and to trade away anyone getting close to FA. The difference in attitude by ownership is amazing, and clearly is at the root of the difference in how fun it is to be a fan of either team right now. So I won't be buying any Cleveland (Indians? Spiders? Cheapskates?) merchandise or watching any of their games on a platform from which they would gain ad revenue until the Dolans sell the team. I'm pretty comfortable with that decision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 I bet this team relocates. It will suck, but I won’t miss Dolan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slateman Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Honestly, given how little leverage the Indians had, that's a pretty good deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
