Indians Fire Sale Coming?
The Indians have once again started poorly (14-26) and are currently in last place in the AL Central. The question now becomes whether or not they will blow up this team and try to rebuild. There are certainly guys that other teams will have a lot of interest in. Some of the rumors have been...Boston reportedly is interested in Victor Martinez to shoulder the offensive load because of a slumping David Ortiz. It's been speculated that the Mets also may go after Mark DeRosa to help replace injured first baseman Carlos Delgado. Cliff Lee, last year's Cy Young winner, is said to be on several contenders' wish list.
I think there is a good chance that some of this will happen. I still don't believe V-Mart is coming to Boston, because I think the asking price is going to be too high (though I would love to see it). DeRosa, and Less I do believe will be traded. Lee is a guy that the Indians could trade get a lot of nice prospects for. I know he won the Cy Young last year, but I still have no faith in that guy. Anyways should be interesting to see what the Indians do if they are not able to turn this season around.
