Smoke Signals-Kevin Goldstein of Baseball Prospectus and 2009 Indians 6th round pick 1B Ben Carlson
Paul and Tony talk to Kevin Goldstein about a lot of our top prospects. Some pretty interesting insights on Santana, Weglarz, and Rondon.
A Third Starter is the Indians Top Priority
There's a lot of new information in this piece by Terry Pluto such as:
- The Indians now view a third starter as the top priority
- The Indians are leaning towards giving the closer position to Jensen Lewis rather than sign a FA/Trade for a closer
- And the Front Office believes that Huff might be able to handle pitching 3rd in the rotation next year

Apparently the new word is that the pirates ended talks with the Indians regarding Jason Bay because a package of Gutz, Shoppach,Lee and a minor leaguer was not enough for Bay and Ronny Paulino.

Just a thought...Bonds in LF?

Before everyone freaks just think about it. If we put down our emotions I think that this is an idea worth considering given the current trade market and the likelihood of a decreased price.

Indians resume interest in Percival

"Remember when the hottest rumor centered around which team would sign Troy Percival? Percival ultimately signed with St. Louis, but the Indians were one of many teams rumored to be in on him.
Now comes word via MLB.com's Jim Molony that the Indians might "try to make a pitch" to acquire Percival from the Cardinals. Percival has pitched 14.2 innings for the Cardinals, and he's been very sharp with a 3.75 K/BB. I'm sure he'd be open to a role in the back of Cleveland's pen.
The Tribe would probably have even more interest in Jason Isringhausen, but he's said to be unavailable."

Apologize if this has been posted already. I know there was a diary about Hafner turning down an offer earlier this year but this seems to be a new development

I'd say its well worth it. As Gammon notes pitching is at a premium and I think we can get a lot for Lee even with him having a bad half.
