Via Indians Prospect Insider  |  February 08, 2012
Kotchman not the right-handed option many were hoping for (photo: MLB)The talk of the Cleveland offseason, long before, really, has been a lack of right-handed hitters in the Indians' lineup in general, but especially a lack of power from the right side.It is no secret that exactly zero of the team's projected regular position players are strictly right-handed, as only switch...
