Want out of Cleveland? Win a Cy Young!


2007 Cy Young Award winner - CC Sabathia.
2008...Sabathia gone.

2008 Cy Young Award winner - Cliff Lee
2009....Lee gone.

Unreal. The fire sale begins anew. Can we please get an owner who wants to win again? Good luck selling this team to the city in 2010. And then don't bitch that you can't sign a big name because attendance is piss poor.

This hurts.

"Losing one Cy Young winner one year and another the very next year is probably hard for a fan to swallow. It's the nature of the game. It's something you're really going to have to talk to Shapiro about, as far as his outlook and his intent with the whole deal. Obviously, he feels he's making the team better with those deals. It's not my job to grade it. It's my job to pitch."

As a Twins fan, I'm pleased to see Indians ownership do everything to ensure the Indians never actually become a threat in the Central Division.

Of course, we'll see what happens when Mauer's contract comes up. Will the Twin's open the wallet or let the Yankees/Red Sox have him.
