  • Here Are Key Faqs About Indians' Offseason by Jordan
    Here are key FAQs about Indians' offseason By Jordan Bastian MLB.com @MLBastian CLEVELAND -- The sting of another early October exit will linger for a while, but the Indians' decision-makers must now turn their attention to next year. This week, manager Terry Francona, along with president of baseball operations Chris Antonetti and general manager Mike Chernoff, have already held end-of-year meetings with Cleveland's players, coaches and staff. The goal is to gather input on this past season, make plans for the offseason months ahead and asssess the direction to take for 2019. "It's really important to separate the feelings from the process," Antonetti said. "The feelings hurt a lot. It's disappointment. It's frustration. It's a lot of things. But what we need to do and what we always do, is we always reflect back organizationally and think about, 'What were the things within our control and what can we do better?' We do that at the end of every season, and this season will be no different. "It's already started, in fact. We've had exit interviews with players. We've got feedback from staff. And we'll do our own internal assessment, and we'll reach out to others and get those reflections back from it and try to learn from it. What are things that we can do better as an organization and improve upon for next year?" With that in mind, here are some FAQs about the Tribe's offseason: 1. How many Cleveland players will be eligible for free agency this winter? The Indians will have four high-profile free agents this winter in third baseman Josh Donaldson, left fielder Michael Brantley, lefty Andrew Miller and righty Cody Allen.
