Based on the numbers, Kipnis Should...

  ...be the starting second baseman in the All Star game. Only Cano can lay an argument against it. He has 11 homers, hitting 297, but only 29 RBI. And...he has swiped only one base. Cano's glove is a little better, but all and all, America should all be Kipnesses.
  
  Kinsler and Pedroia cannot sniff his shorts so far.

  We are all Kipnises

  I really hope they can the guy a few days off so he doesnt wear down, hes the only player on the team to play every single game this season. IMO we have the best middle infield combo in the AL.
  
  The biggest surprise so far is Brantley, he has really come along since the start of the year.
  
  Biggest dissappointment is easily Santana, the guy has a vicious swing that results in a lot of air.

  Make fun of them, but the Indians at least develop talent and have been in the thick of things.
  
  The hallowed Browns haven't done either in 10 years.
  
  Kipnis is a stud though

  I'm not sure how long the Tribe has 'control' of his contract, but I'm thinking it's at least 3 more years minimum.

  Pretty sure he will not be a free agent until after the 2017 season, and that is if the Tribe doesn't look to buy his first free agent year like they have done with guys like Santana and Cabrera (and many others in the past).

  What do the Browns have to do with this? You could have used any other baseball team (i.e. pirates) as an example of a team that hasn't developed talent in the past 10 years, yet you had to use a football team (shocking it was the Browns /sarcasm), in a league that is structured in a completely different way.
  
  Just wanted to shed some light on the idiocy, so you understand why 95% of your posts receive backlash. I am pretty sure you are well aware of what you are doing though.

  Right now Kipnis isnt even in the top 5 and Acab is 5th among shortstops.
