Gutierrez on his way to Seattle; Indians Will Receive Two Youngsters

The shock of this trade is still not wearing off and I was hoping that it wasn't going to be true. But it looks like it's going to get done. Thankfully.. The Indians aren't getting Aaron Heilman, Endy Chavez or first baseman Mike Carp. The deal breaks down as this. Mets...

No Mustard on that one.. Royals shutout Tribe

I want to lead off with something that struck me as I saw Trevor Crowe step up to the plate.Has Eric Wedge turned a corner.... Or is he just as biased as I thought he was?I'm starting to think the latter is true, but I hope the first is the case.One of my biggest complaints about...

I told Dwight there is honor losing, which we all know is completely ridiculous

For title reference.. Check 1:15. I know... I know... But he's right... In a Michael Scott-sort of way. Even in a meaningless spring game, losing 17-7 isn't cool. It sort of is a kick in the stomach to know your pitchers really sucked. This is Goodyear though, but still. The...

Everybody was prospect. Look how most turn out.

Mlb_may_17_52e8
Around this time of year, the term “prospect” becomes the sexiest word to baseball insiders and the most mysterious to the casual fan. I mean, aren’t they all prospects at some point? The typical pro is probably significantly better than any guy you’ve ever played with. Hell...
