Inbox: Will Salazar Return to the Rotation? by Jordan Bastian MLB.Com @Mlbastian @Bennythejet2017 Sort out the Bullpen/Rotation Logjam When Salazar Is Healthy Inbox: Will Salazar return to the rotation? By Jordan Bastian MLB.com @MLBastian @BennyTheJet2017 Sort out the bullpen/rotation logjam when Salazar is healthy. Will he start off at AAA & have to earn spot? Would it be rotation or bullpen spot? If he comes back, who gets sent down? #indiansinbox The first issue here is Danny Salazar's timeline for return. The Indians have taken a very conservative approach to Salazar's comeback from right shoulder inflammation -- an issue that flared up in January -- so it is hard to project when the righty might be a viable option for the MLB rotation. The good thing here is that he has been honest with the Indians about how he has felt rather than pushing through discomfort. When Salazar is built up again for a starting role, the next step would be a Minor League rehab stint. That is the only scenario in which the hard-throwing righty would be at Triple-A. Remember, Salazar, 28, is out of options. So, once he is healthy and ready to be activated, he must join Cleveland's big league roster. It's impossible to predict what else might be going on with the MLB rotation when that time comes. If everyone is healthy and pitching well -- the perfect-world scenario that every team dreams about -- I could see Cleveland continuing to allow Salazar to take his time on a rehab assignment. Then, the debate about starting vs. relieving might come into play. Earlier this spring, manager Terry Francona said Salazar could be "lights out" as a reliever, but he noted that the pitcher also performs better with a routine schedule. That's difficult to do in the bullpen. So, this would likely come down to what is going on in the rotation when Salazar needs to be activated. Is one of the other pitchers struggling? Is there someone else banged up and need of a trip to the DL? Would one of the other starters be better suited for a move to the bullpen to clear room for Salazar? Mike Clevinger and Josh Tomlin have worked out of the 'pen in the past. Right now, the only certainty is Salazar starting the season on the shelf. The other answers will come later on. The Indians are pretty excited about catching prospects Francisco Mejia (No. 1 on the Tribe's Top 30 prospects list, per MLB Pipeline) and Eric Haase (No, 20), too. And, given the recent release of veteran Ryan Hanigan, who was in camp as a non-roster invitee, Mejia and Haase look like the next-man-up candidates in the event of an injury to either Roberto Perez or Yan Gomes. Indians first-base coach Sandy Alomar Jr., who doubles as the team's catching instructor, has been impressed by the defensive strides made by both Mejia and Haase. Here are some of Francona's recent comments on the catchers' skills behind the plate: On Mejia... "Sandy's been working with a lot on his transfer," Francona said. "He's got a really strong arm. He's been trying to clean up his transfer a little bit. But, like most young catchers, experience is the biggest thing. Running a game, learning how to guide a pitcher through a tough inning, and things like that. He's got all the physical tools that you'd ever want." On Haase... "[Sandy] really enjoys him," Francona said. "He thinks that, although he doesn't have like Perez and Gomes arm strength, he's got plenty of arm. But, he's so receptive at the plate. He's getting better at receiving. He's fine back there and he cares about running the game and all the things you're looking for in a catcher. He does a really good job." They will be splitting up the catching duties at Columbus. I wouldn't expect it to be a traditional starter-backup type of innings distribution. Plus, Cleveland plans on having Mejia get some action in the outfield early on this season. Given the presence of Perez and Gomes, and how highly the Indians value Mejia's offensive abilities, the team is exploring ways to potentially expedite the prospect's path to the Majors. Will the way the free-agent period played out this offseason have any effect on the likelihood that Andrew Miller or Cody Allen will sign an extension? -- Andy L., Aurora, Colo. As tough as this offseason was for many free agents, the relief market was mostly exempt from the issues. A lot of setup-type relievers earned multi-year contracts over the winter. Former Tribe reliever Bryan Shaw, for example, netted a three-year, $27 million contract with the Rockies. That means Shaw has the same average salary as the one Miller ($9 million) will have this year with Cleveland. So, given the current market for impact relievers, it still seems likely that Miller and Allen will hit free agency next offseason. When looking at the players on the roster bubble without Minor League options or opportunity (Erik Gonzalez, Giovanny Urshela and Ryan Merritt, for example), do you see the Indians being able to deal for any value in return? -- Dan C., San Diego Sure. If those players don't make the active roster, and don't wind up on the disabled list to start the season, they would need to be exposed to waivers before a potential trip to the Minor Leagues. The issue with trying to trade players in that situation is that the other 29 teams know they will be up for grabs via waivers, so it's difficult to net a great return in those kind of deals. The Indians would likely see what interest there might be among teams who are lower in the waiver-priority list. Do you think the Indians will explore trading Gomes or Perez to the Brewers after the Stephen Vogt injury? It seems like a good opportunity to clear up some playing time for Mejia. -- Mitchell M., Lima, Ohio That doesn't seem realistic, no. While Mejia is polished as a hitter, the Indians still feel he has work to do on the defensive side of things. With a veteran pitching staff serving as the backbone of a team with its sights set on winning the World Series, Cleveland loves its MLB tandem of Perez and Gomes. Mejia will likely be up with the Indians at some point this year, but it won't be on Opening Day unless something unexpected happens. @sean_lynsk What will be the Tribes 7 8 9 inning pitching rotation. Who is the bridge to Cody? Allen will once again get the bulk of the opportunities as Cleveland's closer, with Miller serving as the high-leverage weapon. That said, there could be times where they swap roles, depending on the situation or if Francona feels the workload needs to be eased for one of the relievers. For the setup role, expect Francona to do a lot of mixing and matching. Tyler Olson will handle mostly left-handed batters. Francona loves Nick Goody for righties. The manager calls Dan Otero his "wild card," meaning he can come in at any point for any situation. Zach McAllister will likely get more high-leverage chances now that Shaw is no longer in the fold. What you won't see if Francona designating specific pitchers for specific innings. @ShoelessJoeHQ #IndiansInbox: Does Ben Taylor have a shot at getting some higher leverage innings at some point this year? How does the FO view him? Right now, Ben Taylor provides the Indians with some experienced depth. One of the reasons they acquired him from the Red Sox earlier this spring was due to his having a pair of Minor League options. The team feels Taylor still has some development left, but he's been in the big leagues, so that gives the club a nice layer of depth behind the Major League bullpen. Cleveland Indians pitcher Josh Tomlin inspired by his father -- Terry Pluto By Terry Pluto, The Plain Dealer [email protected] GOODYEAR, Arizona -- In the Tomlin family, people don't quit. Just look at Josh Tomlin, who pitched his way into the American League's best starting rotation primarily because of determination and perspiration. The Cleveland Indians righthander has come back from major elbow and shoulder surgeries. He's had to prove scouts and coaches wrong for thinking a 6-foot righthander with a below-average fastball would have no big league future. He was the 581st pick in the 2006 draft. In the minors, every year he'd open the season in the bullpen because the bigger, stronger and higher- priced prospects were supposed to be the starters. But within a few months, Tomlin would pitch his way into the rotation and win games. He did it over and over, year after year. He has a 56-28 minor league record with a 3.14 ERA. He was a "fringe prospect" with "below average stuff" who shouldn't even have made the Majors, much less be in his eighth season with the Tribe. But here is Tomlin at the age of 33, defying the odds with his 88-mph fastball and perhaps the best control in the majors. Last season, he had only 14 walks -- compared to 26 starts! No way should Tomlin have a 59-48 career record with the Tribe, but he does. "That comes from my father," said Tomlin. "He said never back down from anybody. And he said if you get knocked down, then get back up." MOVING FORWARD A conversation about pitching turned to Jerry Tomlin, Josh's 59-year-old father.

  • Peter Gammons: the Cleveland Indians, Best Run Team in Professional Sports March 5, 2018 by Peter Gammons 7 Comments PHOENIX—T
    Peter Gammons: The Cleveland Indians, best run team in professional sports March 5, 2018 by Peter Gammons 7 Comments PHOENIX—The Cleveland Indians have won 454 games the last five years, 22 more than the runner-up Boston Red Sox. In those years, the Indians spent $414M less in payroll than Boston, which at the start speaks volumes about how well the Indians have been run. Two years ago, they got to the tenth inning of an incredible World Series game 7, in a rain delay. Last October they lost an agonizing 5th game of the ALDS to the Yankees, with Corey Kluber, the best pitcher in the American League hurt. They had a 22 game winning streak that ran until September 15, their +254 run differential was 56 runs better than the next best American League team (Houston), they won 102 games, they led the league in earned run average, their starters were 81-38 and they had four players hit between 29 and 38 homers, including 29 apiece from the left side of their infield, Francisco Lindor and Jose Ramirez. And they even drew 2.05M (22nd in MLB) to the ballpark formerly known as The Jake, the only time in this five year run they drew more than 1.6M or were higher than 28th in the majors. That is the reality they live with. One could argue that in terms of talent and human player development, the growth of young front office talent (6 current general managers and three club presidents), they are presently the best run organization in the sport, especially given their financial restraints.

  • Indians Party Like It's 1997 After Winning Pennant
    Indians party like it's 1997 after winning pennant Cleveland will host Game 1 of the World Series for first time in its history By Jordan Bastian / MLB.com | @MLBastian | 12:38 AM ET TORONTO -- They took turns passing the trophy around. A bottle in one hand and the hardware in the other, one by one, Cleveland's players savored their moment. They would stare at it, champagne dripping from the gold eagle that sits atop the black base, pausing for a moment before posing for photos. In that brief personal moment, the players probably thought about all that had to happen for the Indians to reach this stage, for that trophy to be placed in their arms. Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Blue Jays in Game 5 of the American League Championship Series, a victory that clinched the franchise's sixth AL pennant, gave the world a look at what has defined this Indians team all season long, and why it is now going to the World Series. "I'm just really happy that we're standing here today," said Indians president Chris Antonetti, as his players partied on the other side of Rogers Centre's visitors' clubhouse. "However we got here, I'm not sure I've reflected back on. But this team, the resiliency, the grit, the perseverance to overcome all that they've gone through over the course of the season ..." More champagne bottles popped behind him. "The guys we have are not focused on who's not here," he continued, "but focused on the guys that are here and [they] try to find a way to help them win.

  • Clips for 7-12-10
    MEDIA CLIPS – July 20, 2017 Arenado thrives with unconventional technique Uncommon footwork paying off at plate for Rox slugger By Joe Trezza / MLB.com | 10:00 AM ET NEW YORK -- Give it a few years, some in the Rockies' organization believe, and the Major Leagues could be a league littered with players like Nolan Arenado. Not in terms of production -- not everyone woke up Thursday fresh off a three- homer game and eyeing a third straight RBI title -- but in hitting approach and style. Baseball is a copycat game. Do something at the plate a little differently and very well, and soon someone is bound to mirror it. Baseball people don't think it a coincidence Giants prospect Christian Arroyo resembles Buster Posey in stance and swing, or how Jose Bautista's leg kick led to Josh Donaldson's and Justin Turner's, and on and on. The next trend may come from a mechanical tweak in Arenado's load some are calling the driving force behind not just the third baseman's homers, but also his future standing as a pioneer. "It's now three straight years, and he comes in at the break and he's leading baseball in RBI," Rockies broadcaster and former outfielder Ryan Spilborghs said. "You start paying attention to him. Mechanically, what does he do?" It's what Arenado does with his back (right) foot, specifically, during his swing that is turning heads. Slow down the video of his three-homer game Wednesday. Before each one, Arenado actually lifts his back foot off the ground prior to stepping with the front foot, a momentum-creating motion that essentially gives him a running start into the pitch.
