  • Indians Announce '16 Player-Development
    Indians announce '16 player-development staff By Jordan Bastian / MLB.com | @MLBastian | January 11th, 2016 CLEVELAND -- John McDonald spent the better part of two decades putting dazzling defense on display on the big league stage. The Indians announced Monday that the former shortstop will now be charged with helping mold the developing infielders within their farm system. McDonald, who served as a special assistant to player development last year for Cleveland, will take over as the Tribe's Minor League infield coordinator this year. According to a release by the ballclub, the 41-year-old McDonald will be "the primary resource to Minor League coaches in the implementing and monitoring of individual infielder player plans." The Indians selected McDonald in the 12th round of the 1996 Draft, and he turned himself into one of baseball's elite infield defenders over the course of a 16-year career, which included parts of seven seasons with Cleveland. Dating back to 1990, McDonald is one of only 10 shortstops to register at least 51 Defensive Runs Saved. The Indians have also hired former pitcher Bruce Chen, who retired in 2015 after a two-start stint with Cleveland, to be a Minor League cultural development coordinator. Chen pitched in 17 seasons in the Majors with 11 teams, appearing in 400 games. Chen -- a native of Panama who speaks multiple languages -- will assist all organizational players in the transition to professional baseball, with a focus on Latin-born players. Cleveland also announced Triple-A Columbus manager Chris Tremie, Double-A manager Dave Wallace and Class A Advanced Lynchburg manager Mark Budzinski will all return to the same role in 2016.

  • Indians Are Ready and Armed to Win the AL Central If Minnesota Falters
    Indians are ready and armed to win the AL Central if Minnesota falters 2. Cleveland Indians: I really want to put this team ahead of Minnesota. Why? Well, because the Indians at one point in the season had a chance to take command of the division, but failed to do so. Cleveland played their best baseball during the months of June and July where they earned a record of 31-25 over those two months. What hurt them besides their initial slide after getting even with Minnesota was how they started and finished. The Indians won just nine of 22 games in April and went 27-31 from August 1st on. Five players made the American League All-Star squad selected by Yankees Manager Joe Torre, in conjunction with Major League Baseball. One of them was not 1B/DH Travis Hafner, who ranked second in the league in OPS behind Boston’s Manny Ramirez. Not to mention, the gritty 27-year-old had ten more base hits (150) than games played. Cleveland’s team MVP: Catcher Victor Martinez - .300BA, 30HR, and 100RBI production capabilites. As far as the rotation goes, the Indians may have the best one in this division. C.C. Sabathia has already made a name for himself as a big, yet effective left-hander. He’s got 54 wins to his credit in only four major league seasons. Sabathia wants to get his ERA down to where Jake Westbrook (14-9 3.38ERA) has his at. Westbrook also pitched five complete games, most in the AL Central a season ago.
