Been following the Tribe since the late ‘60s, but have never been so cynical as I have been the past two seasons. Trading away Cy Young winners in consecutive seasons and not getting a single bonafide major league player in return (just a bunch of “prospects”) really upset me.

Is it just me, or is FR really slow lately?

They both had expiring contracts. You think that a team is going to give up the farm--literally--to get a pitcher with an expiring contract?

The Jimenez deal with a head scratcher. CC and Lee made sense.
