Baseball Blogs Weigh In: Sabathia, Yonder, Maybin

By Mike Axisa | August 12, 2011 at 6:19pm CDT

On this date in 1994, the MLB Players' Association went on strike, leading to the cancellation of the World Series and a delayed start to the 1995 season. Dave Winfield was traded from the Twins to the Indians for a player to be named later two weeks after the strike but before the season was officially canceled, so the player to be named later was never actually named. Instead, Indians' executives took Twins' executives out to dinner and picked up the tab as compensation for the trade. Winfield, a Hall of Famer, was traded for dinner.

Here are this week's links, which will hopefully net the authors something more than a nice dinner one day…

  • Cream City Cables thinks the sky is the limit for the Brewers offense.
  • Detroit Baseball Page wrote about ex-Tiger Cameron Maybin.
