Late last week it was revealed that the Cleveland Indians, along with the Philadelphia Phillies, were in heavy pursuit of Texas Rangers third baseman/right fielder/dong smasher Joey Gallo. Like many of you, I wondered why. Why would the Indians want a sub-sub-par defender in the outfield who can hit home runs and do almost literally nothing else.
I joined in the playful bewilderment over the Indians “aggressively” pursuing a tree trunk of a man that can’t play the outfield. It just didn’t click.
Folks, I have seen the light.
