I am not ok with Wade in an Indians uniform. Dodgers, Rangers, Nationals, Marlins, Mariners, Giants, Red Sox, all fine. No to the Indians.

Kennedy

vs min 0 hr
@ hou 1 hr
vs det 0 hr
@ laa 2 hr
@ sea 0 hr
@ cle 0 hr

after 6 starts, gap's ERA was 2.13 and he had only given up 3 HR in 38 innings (0.03 HR per inning)

then this happened
@ nyy 3 hr
vs bos 1 hr
@ min 1 hr
vs tb 0 hr
@ cle 2 hr
@ chw 4 hr
vs cle 2 hr
@ nym 2 hr
vs hou 1 hr
@ phi 1 hr
@ tor 1 hr
@ det 1 hr
vs cle 4 hr
vs laa 0 hr

next 14 starts: 5.54 ERA, 23 HR in 76+ innings (0.30 HR per inning)

to me trading within the division is even better because not only do you get their good young players, but they lose them.

i would say 1 hr per start is what you want out of your starter, so maybe let's just look at games where there was 0 hr or more than 1 hr

vs min 0 hr
vs det 0 hr
vs tb 0 hr
vs laa 0 hr
@ sea 0 hr
@ cle 0 hr

vs cle 2 hr
vs cle 4 hr
@ laa 2 hr
@ cle 2 hr
@ nym 2 hr
@ nyy 3 hr
@ chw 4 hr

his only 2 shitty home games were both vs cleveland. maybe instead of pushing the fences back, Ned could just not start gap vs cleveland

Including the Rios buyout in this year's salaries seems odd, and it is a small fraction of that 58 million

Yeah, we're not going to the playoffs next year either, so I could give a crap if he has the greatest season of all time for the Indians. It's gonna be a real kick in the nuts when their best 3-4 prospects whip their asses for the next 5 years after that. I'd love to trade with the Indians, as long as they have really good minor league talent to be acquired.

hey chodecat. quit chodecatting and realize if we didn't have all this wasted money wrapped up in Vargas/Infante and Kennedy we won't be using Wade as a vehicle for salary dump and would perhaps consider cashing in on his actual value.

When he's playing well, is there a more fun player to watch in baseball than Yordano Ventura?
