I read on Indians.com that Clev is saying he’s going to beat that timetable on his recovery.

They both want it to get done, but I doubt its actually possible. So in that respect, I guess they are negotiating.

I hope that Lindor stays, but I am skeptical. The Indians have offered him more money than he can spend in a lifetime. If he truly wants to stay, sign the contract.

I'd have no issue with a 3 or 4 year contract but I don't want them getting hamstrung, long-term, by a 10-12 year deal. If they can't do a shorter deal, I could see the Tribe putting together a low ball/good faith type of package to say "we tried."

And Carrasco hobbles into the clubhouse on a crutch experiencing "discomfort" in his right leg this morning.

I don’t see Carrasco coming back and being effective.

Welp, start the season with basically the 2019 Clipper starting rotation

Should move Carrasco back to the pen.

I’m not confident he can even do that.

Hoping it's not the case but have heard speculation that this latest setback could be due to a return of his issue last year.

Shame that he couldn't get healthy, I really enjoyed him in Cleveland.

Always liked Lonnie. ... 

He spent his entire career with the Tribe... never having an official major league AB with the Pirates.

One of my co-owners of our company is out at Spring Training taking in today's game.

A little surprised, but not shocked, that the Tribe's home opener is still not sold out. Over the past 4-5 years the longest it took to sell out was an hour.
