A whole lotta what ifs going to be asked if Cleveland makes it past Tampa 😔

Yup, Sox played the Rays tough all year too. 😢

I hope Getz takes notes on how to improve a club without giving up big time prospects. That was a masterclass of a deadline by Cleveland:

Griffin - 6.2ip, 10ks, 3er
Adell - 8 RBIs, .988 OPS
Lowe - .400 OBP, .700 OPS

Cleveland does what Cleveland does.

Been doing it for a decade.

Yeah, but are they going to have studs like Castillo and Doyle around for additional years?

Do you think the location of the new stadium will be good for them?

Without a doubt, most in the Metro area live in Tampa and the northern suburbs. For those fans it’s a bad trek down to St. Pete especially on weekdays during rush hour with all the bridges having huge traffic jams. Fans in the towns east of the Bay have to travel up to 30 miles out of their way as they have to take I-75 south to 275 and then come back north across the Sunshine Skyway bridge. Actually for me here in Port Charlotte and fans in Bradenton, Sarasota and Venice it will be a longer trip. What the difference in attendance will be is anyone’s guess but the Lightning and the Bucs draw very well in Tampa, my guess the Rays will probably average 5,000 fans more a game with a lot more in the first few years. We take 3-4 cruises a year out of Tampa and we can get to the port which is right next door to Benchmark Arena in less than 90 minutes and it would probably be about 15 minutes more to the new ballpark.
