I wouldn't be surprised. Channel 8 said that he is having hip replacement surgery and foot surgery. Tito said that he will evaluate his future after the surgeries.

A couple of weeks ago on 1100 he said that he hopes to be involved in some capacity in an organization's minor league system when his managing says are over.

He should retire. A rebuild won’t be good for his already terrible health.

Wow.

That’s a lot to digest.

I agree, and if he retires soon, the organization can do a search for their next guy. If he waits until spring to retire or is forced to medically, the tribe is limited to someone already in the organization. Not to say that the next isn't already in the organization, but it would be nice to have a wider choice of options.

I wanted Sandy initially, but thought he was terrible last year. Wouldnt mind giving him another chance, but apparently that wont be the case this season.

We traded Rosario for the panda. That should put us in the world series.

Lol. Rosario turned out to be a terrible signing.

I’m surprised the Guardians dealt with the Braves. 😎

(I had to look up which Rosario…..Eddie)

Who’s next to go?

Mercado in LF here on out will be interesting. I like Oscar, he'll make some really good plays with the glove and will hustle, but my goodness, his arm is very weak and inaccurate. Hard to believe that the Tribe played him so often in center, a two hop throw to the relay man almost everytime is just terrible. Lol, at least from Left his throws to second and third (the vicinity of, never to the bag) get there on one bounce. He needs the work.

Go Tribe!

I'd like to see him and Zimmer in the outfield regularly to see if they can offer anything going forward.

Bradley, Zimmer, Mercado (I guess) and Clemente should play every day from her on out. Yu Change and Owen Miller I dont think will factor into the future, so lets not waste ABs on them.

Yu Change

That’s what my wife often says to me when I get dressed to go out.

He’s supposedly better than the CF we have.

He's the straw that stirs the drink to bring together our collection of misfit toys. Since we have given up on the season, we will probably sweep the Sox.

What the hell is going on?

Indians.com hasn’t posted any of these transactions yet.

Edit: they just posted them up
