Yeah it's a dice throw, but Cleveland has likely done well.Quote:

Twins will never get out of last place at this rate. Live with it.
The Tribe get more for 1 year of Choo then the Twins did of 3 years of Span.
Or six years of Johan.Quote:

Every other fan base in baseball is complaining that their GM should've topped this.Quote:

The Span trade was a good one regardless of this ridiculous trade that the Indians pulled off.
