Yes!

In 1958, I was in kindergarten!

Off topic.  I assumed BRF was the elder statesman on this forum.

lol, don't I know it 

Francona on Salazar, "................he's not going to be competing to make our club.", (referring to end of spring training).

Still recovering from shoulder surgery.

The Tribe has acquired Kevin Pawlecki ( .218 Ba 14 Hrs and 75 RBIs lifetime) from the Mets for 2 minor leaguers.  Yawn.

From what I saw he isn’t good at throwing out runners either.

Chris Antoinette says he has an upside... that’s good, I’d hate to think he didn’t.

Anybody out there on the OC think the Tribe should make a play for Moose Moustakas?

He’s still out there, and the Tribe’s outfield is still muddied. That would allow us to put Kip out there for a full season, since that seems to be his post season position anyway.

Heard Zimmer speak at their winter fiesta thingy. Sounds like he thinks he'll be ready for opening day. And Bauer continues to be a clown.

Predicted at 2/16.  Adam Jones at similar price for one year makes more sense. 

Still standing by nothing until trade deadline and Corey Dickerson.

I’d take Adam Jones. Wanted him at deadline. Professional hitter, and can play corner OF at his age.

I don’t hate Adam Jones... I hate that at this point he’s our best option... an option that we may not even avail ourselves of.

Meanwhile, Cody Allen heading to the Angels on a one year deal.

The mass exodus of talent continues with nothing to replace it.
