If I’m the Indians, I’m looking to trade Edwin in the off-season.
Then, you re-sign Brantley and work him into the 1B/DH rotation with Yonder. I really think he could bring plus defense to the position.

What kind of value would you expect to get for a 36 year old EE coming off what is probably going to be his worst season since 2011? I'd imagine the majority of NL teams would have minimal interest.
Which teams would bite?EE is a fine player, but I think when he signed that contract a lot of us looked at him a a two year player.
A few lotto ticket prospects and the space to retain a few guys is good enough for me.
The thought of losing out on Allen, Brantley, and especially Miller just kills me. Love all 3 and want them all to stay here for the long haul, but it's just not how it'll work for the Indians because of the money they will commond.
Could we keep 2 out of 3? Think it's obvious you keep Miller and Brantley. If you had to keep just one...?
Man this winter is gonna be tough for us.
True. I would like to at least keep 2 out of those 3 though.If the Indians are able to keep one, it seems like it has to be Brantley.
There’s just no in-house option to replace him.
The Indians, in theory, can still put together a very serviceable bullpen next year even if they lose Allen and Miller now that they have Hand and Cimber locked in.
