Why are the Indians and Mark Shapiro so dumb? And I mean REALLY dumb?
Cliff Lee for those three jokes and Carrasco? Really?
I thought Shapiro said he had to be blown away to trade Lee... and he traded Lee and Fransico for Knapp, a pitcher who probably won't make it to the big leagues, Lou Marson, when the Indians already have the number one catching prospect in teh country waiting in double A, and Donald makes me the most angry. The Indians already have four guys on their big league roster capable of playing SS... yet they go after this guy! Really?
And finally Carrasco... who I'll admit is good, but he ain't no Kyle Drabek. If I was Shapiro I wouldn't think about trading Lee to the Philles unless we got Drabek... adn what do you know! We didn't get Drabek.
Well... on the upside we finally got rid of Fransico so now Michael Brantley can come up....

I hope they boo his *** out of Progressive Field. I hope he doesn't have the balls to go to fan night before next season because I will dog his *** same with Wedge. Call it Irate fan night I guess.
Why are people not getting that he juist traded two good players in two days Garko now lee, who is next Martinez and Sizemore?

I am really pissed. Shapiro needs to be fired along with Wedge. 7 seasons and 1 playoff appearance. It is time to walk. besides what other big move did Shapiro make? The CC deal could be a big bust. I am sick of this and I hope fans boycott the Indians and don't go to there games. The Indians have no Ace and most likely none of the pitchers they picked up will be an Ace. Without an Ace you can't compete in this league. Carrasco maybe be a good 3 or 2 guy but not ace like Drabek or clay Buckholtz pitcher. This is a BS trade. We have Santana as the future catcher no need for this other guy. And Carbera is ss so it is not a big need like 3rd base and 2nd base and first are now.

Cliff Lee had one good year out of eight seasons. Overrated I think. I don't think it was the best trade for the tribe but I think the prospects they got with Carrasco is enticing. Personally I think Carrasco will be a better pitcher than Lee in the long run or even now.

Relax...they're doing it for money purposes. The Phillies did get the better end of the deal, but now the Indians, with a lower payroll and more money to spare, can look for someone big next season.

I'm speacheless as to where this team wants to go. They sure as heck don't want to win. Someone put Larry Dolan on TV and let's see him explain his thought process on this one.

They probably just wanted to have a HUGE salary dump. This achieved that.
