CLEVELAND, Ohio -- It was 100 years ago this week that Tris Speaker was traded to the Cleveland Indians.
And I love the story about the deal. It's about money.
It's about a future Hall of Famer who was being disrespected by the Boston Red Sox.
It's about money.
It's about that same future Hall of Famer not wanting to play for the Indians.
It's about money.
It's about how that future Hall of Famer eventually did come to Cleveland -- and stuck it to the Red Sox in the process.
IT'S REALLY ABOUT MONEY
In 1915, Tris Speaker was a star center fielder for Boston, which won the World Series.
