All-encompassing Cleveland Indians thread. 46 days until Opening Day.

Anyone had a good Indians sig?
I have been trying to catch up on 96 years of history before opening day.

I do think that they might need to go out on the market in a couple years and invest in a middle of the lineup anchor to build around along with Santana. TBH, I don't see anyone like that in their system.

Perfect case IMO would be to have Grady and Hafner get back to somewhere near their prime #'s and try and load up on some pitching. Oakland for some reason seems like a team that could use both and have enough arms to deal at both levels. A good amount of teams scream that they need offensive help and have pitching. Just a thought.

Well said.

You know what; I don't think I've seen a Indians signature in a few years now that I think about it...I'd liked to see someone make one.

I've always rooted for them just because of the movie Major League.  I always have an Indians hat in my rotation 

As for this years team, I'm really curious as to how Sizemore will respond once he comes back.  Some guys are never the same after being out that long.

Glad we in the rotation 

Surprisingly very excited for the season.  Hopefully Sizemore does work again

Prediction time:  When will Hafner get injured?

All the Cavs fans need to channel their energy from that win last night and gear it towards the Indians now.

I don't, either. Some seem to think Nick Weglarz could be that, some don't. I'm a don't.

Asdrubal, Brantley, Fausto and Masterson.

LaPorta obviously needs to, but I'm not counting on it. Same with Hafner.
