Last week, I brought up the potential damage control the Cleveland Indians may have to run after spending the past three months actively shopping ace Corey Kluber.
Yesterday, we found out Kluber isn’t the only player the Indians may need to smooth things over with.
Speaking with Paul Hoynes of Cleveland.com, team president Chris Antonetti was asked if this winter’s cost-cutting had anything to do with freeing up money for a contract extension with All-Star shortstop Francisco Lindor.
Seen as one of the game’s rising stars and also entering the first of three remaining years of team control, Lindor is clearly someone Cleveland should be looking to retain.
