There’s been a lot of bad news out of Cleveland the last few days. With Brantley, Diaz, Encarnacion, and Gomes, names of our past are departing in favor of a muddled future. This early-stage “retooling” is awfully uncomfortable. As long as they make moves to compensate and actually get better, no stress. But for now all we have to look at is some empty roster spots and a young first baseman with a familiar name. Jake Bauers was a favorite of the Tampa front office and fan base for much of his young career. I suppose it’s time we got our own hype train running, huh?
