The Indians are still in discussions to move one of their top starters, and by all indications it’s sounding more and more like a deal might be coming sooner than later with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Jon Morosi of MLB.com reported early on Thursday that the Indians and Dodgers are chatting, and that “discussions continue” between the two teams for a deal that could send two-time Cy Young Award winner Corey Kluber out west.
The big player coming back to the Indians in the deal would be Yasiel Puig, who would fill a huge hole for the Indians and right away be penciled in as the teams’ everyday rightfielder.
