Interesting. Seems like the Indians are looking for another bat and pitcher....

With how aggressive we were last season, I expect our front office to do the same this year.
Just because Lucroy vetoed the trade doesn't mean we didn't agree to trade away a huge chunk of our farm system. As much as we all want to say Mejia, McKenzie, etc are untouchable--I think our front office disagrees.
Santana, if everyone is healthy. Brantley, Zimmer and Lonnie are also all lefties, so I don't think they all play everyday, anyways. Maybe 3 games a week in the OF, 3 games at DH.If we're all healthy, where do you play him? Brantley/Zimmer/Lonnie has been pretty good this year, and the only other options are Santana/Edwin.
Yeah, given that's it's in Division, price might've been too steep.Plus, what would it have taken to get this done? I imagine you're parting with some legit prospects--probably one of Zimmer/Mejia/McKenzie, or multiple talented guys like Allen/Benson.
I think they would trade those guys for Stanton in a heartbeat.

Until Dolan realizes what he got himself into with that mega contract on top of signing Lindor to a rich contract and the payroll skyrocketing like it's California.
Indians won't trade for Stanton regardless. 21k fans a night won't get that contract done.
I'm not calling Dolan cheap either, but I'd call him cheap on Stanton.
Don't think the Tribe have made any moves / said anything in the media to really suggest we are all in for this year.
gio stanton pls

This Stanton stuff is crazy talk, we should know better...
Miami will either have to accept a lesser package for their contract they signed him too, or agree to pay a fraction of it.
Paul George has a better chance coming to the cavs at the trade deadline than Stanton does to the Indians.
I need to use Ben's green font.Not in a million years.
