CanOfCorn Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 QUOTE(thedoctor @ Nov 8, 2006 -> 02:22 PM) for two minor leaguers: cleveland plain dealer blog very nice pickup for both sides, dealing out of strength is always a good thing. Although I would think the Tribe would be more interested in pitching, but hey, I'm not Mark Sha-PIE-ro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWSGuy406 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 QUOTE(jphat007 @ Nov 8, 2006 -> 09:16 PM) Nice .318 OBP Yeah, well, he's a rookie playing in a bad hitting park. He's also playing second-base; there aren't a lot of great hitting secondbasemen. The positional average is lower than, say, RF or 3B. He put up a 94 OPS+ this past season. But Kouzmanoff is a pretty good prospect, and this trade means Cleveland has total belief in Andy Marte's developement. Marte's past 500+ ABs have not been very pretty... I'd say a pretty decent trade for both teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipps Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 This guy is going to be a pain in our a**es for a few years.I dont like this one bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Barfield's a guy I think would be PERFECT for the lower half of the order for us, if we didn't have Tadahito Iguchi. He's the type of speedy player that Ozzie likes. That OBP should rise, and he'll be under the Indians control for the next 5 seasons. Excellent trade by Shapiro.

The AL central is going to be tough next year. I don't think the wild card will come from our division becasue thre will be 4 teams in great competition.

Agreed, i wouldn't be supprised if they moved Luna and Blake. Also they've got Trevor Crowe('05 1st round pick 14th overall) on the up and coming hes destroying the AFL(.333/.443/.417, 15BB/9SO 3/3SB all in 19Gs/72ABs) I think hes going to get a very long look in ST, he might even win the bid for opening day LF.

So I think Crowe will get another season in the minors regardless of what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
