As you may have already seen on the fantastic Let’s Go Tribe yesterday, the Indians made their decisions on Carlos Carrasco and Brandon Guyer.
Picking up Carrasco’s option was a no-brainer. Only Paul Hoynes thought there was any chance of him becoming a free agent. Guyer’s value was less definite but it was presumed that the Indians would probably pick his up too. They did not. It’s hard to fault them for this, considering one of his two defining traits leads directly to injuries.
