Tribe gets nice haul for Casey Blake
The Tribe got quite a nice return in their trade of Casey Blake to the Dodger.
A strikeout arm for the pen - something they have sorely lacked for a long time and a young catcher. who - based on numbers and his abiloity to switch hit - sounds like a young Victor Martinez.
