According to ESPN’s transaction tracker, the the Cleveland Indians have made 46 trades since 2002. Give or take one or two. Of those, five have been with an AL Central team, pretty evenly spread around the division. Only the Tigers haven’t swapped for a Tribe player. Adding to that, The only player of real consequence that was moved was Carl Pavano back in 2009. Not that he was great for the Twins or anything, but he did beat the Tribe a few times and have a sub-4.00 ERA one year. Other than him, it was a bunch of nothing going to division rivals, which is par for the course across sports.
The Indians could use several players from their rebuilding rivals
