Wedge leftovers would be eye-opening to Acta.

An article writen by Jim Ingraham that was in the News-Herald today that I thought was both comical and truthful to a point.

The other day, my Brother told my Dad and me that one of his teachers thinks that the Cavs will win more games than the Indians did this year. At first i thought that this was an ridiculous statement however, as i thought about it, it began to seem like a major possibility. This got me wondering how many times this has happend in history where a cities NBA team wins more games than their MLB game. I haven't done any research on it yet but i decided before i do that I would ask LGT if they knew.

Byrd to migrate west?

Why don't the Indians try to resign Paul Byrd. He is a veteran who already is liked by the fans. He also has playoff experience. You also can't tell me you wouldn't want to have Byrd pitching the final out to clinch the Central over someone like Scott Lewis. Byrd would also be a pretty cheap pick up considering the fact that a star like Abreu only got 5 million. I just wanted to find out what you guys thought.

Hopeful

With the continuing success of the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Browns firing of Romeo Crennel the Cleveland Indians are being overshadowed. However, the Tribe has finally shown that they want to be a winner by going out and making a few offseason moves without giving up anything in the process. At the start of the offseason I was a bit worried that Shapiro would just stay put and do nothing. I guess I should have had a little bit of faith in him. I also like the promising young talent we have in our farm system. They include Matt LaPorta, Wes Hodges, Adam Miller, Trevor Crowe, Luis Valbuena, Beau Mills, Carlos Santana, David Huff.... the list goes on. Now to get to my point. With all this offseason shopping is it still crucial for the Tribe to add a middle of the rotation pitcher and if so who is the Tribe looking at? My final question is why would the Indians want DeRosa and 3rd base when he played 2nd all of last year. Wouldn't Asdrubal make a better fit at SS that Peralta? So far this offseason i have seen two articles about the possible rebound of the Tribe. Although they aren't guaranteeing it it makes me excited for the possibility of another exciting ride aboard the Tribe Express.

Omar Vizquel in 09'?

I really don't know if this is something that the Indians even consider going into the offseason. However, I noticed that there is a guy named Omar Vizquel that will be a free agent. Do you think that Shapiro would ever bring Omar back (if he decided to play one more year).This would increase fan support, leadership, and maybe even bring back the magic of the 90's. I also think Omar would be fine with not playing on a daily basis, Like Trot Nixon did in 07'. Omar has meant so much to this city and it sure would be nice to see him in a Tribe uniform for his final year. Hasn't he even said he wants to finish his career in Cleveland. Does anyone agree with this?
