I will. Think the Indians really care how they make the playoffs? Would you?

Yes, I do think the Indians care how they make the playoffs. Wouldn't you want to be part of a team who overcame a 15 game deficit in the final 2 months of the season?

No way. I think they'll make the playoffs, and once they get there, they're the team to beat. They're the most complete team in the AL -- bar none.

Of course. But your OP makes it seem like the WC is not something to be desired. It obviously is.

Is there any doubt that Shapiro should get Executive of the Year?

yeah, i guess not, truly the only good pick up we had was chacon (and al leiter for one game against boston). embree, lawton, leiter the rest of the season, nomo, bellhorn, most of those pickups are busted.

It didn't work, but the effort could be respected. The pitching mid-season was clearly broken. Nobody was willing to part with desirable pitchers, so rather than ignoring the problem they hit the scrap heap. No way I thought Chacon would be this good.
