why would dunn’s value have been hurt?? The only reputation hurt in that little incident was JP’s .

I could only imagine that Dunn thought that the little spat they had would make him seem like a tough person to get along with when it came to the front office. I can definitely see why he would think that because often times the full details of things like that aren’t released which means a lot gets left to the imagination.

Well there was also that whole worldwide economic meltdown that occurred right before he hit free agency.

Well I’m sure we could blame Riccardi for that one too.

Implications of the Vernon Wells signing?

wow it seems like most of the returns from Cliff Lee deals aren’t panning out at all, even the trade mariners to texas had an issue (not regarding talent, but umm “rape” issues), and the potential deal with the yankees had 2B with an ankle issue. I just find that interesting.

Jason Knapp is Cleveland’s “last hope” in the Cliff Lee deal? Really, Dan? Not giving it much time are you. It may seem like a lifetime ago but Lee was only traded a year and half ago. Three of the four guys are already up with the big club and Carrasco is slated for the rotation this year after just being brought up last year. A little perspective, please.

Oh I know you didn’t reply to my post, but if that’s the case then I’ll admit my mistake. I don’t follow the Indians, and didn’t know the progress of their Cliff Lee haul, but point stands to certain degree to the other Lee deals. But they are irrelevant to this post now…

Either that or Dan doesn’t know what he’s talking about. 3 of the 4 minor league players Cleveland got from Philly are up in the majors already.

I don’t understand why Carlos Carrasco gets no love. Compare his numbers to Kyle Drabek whom all the sports writers fawn over. Knapp and Carrasco could turn out to be #1 and 2 in the Indian’s rotation. That’s not a good return for Lee?
heyirma
I just don’t think Dan followed up. He saw the article on Knapp, couldn’t think of anyone else Cleveland got off the top of his head, and made his comment. That’s some good sportwriting.

Not with carmona in the rotation
