Indians Willing To Listen On Masterson, Cabrera

By Luke Adams 2 | December 10, 2013 at 10:41am CDT

10:41am: Despite their need for a shortstop, the Mets aren't in on Cabrera, according to Joel Sherman of the New York Post (on Twitter).

TUESDAY, 10:32am: The Indians are also willing to listen on Asdrubal Cabrera, reports Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports (Twitter links). As Morosi notes, Cleveland has a potential franchise shortstop on the horizon in Francisco Lindor. Their willingness to shop Cabrera isn't surprising given Lindor's presence, Cabrera's $10MM salary in 2014 and the fact that Cabrera slumped to a .242/.299/.402 batting line in 2013.

MONDAY: The Indians are open to fielding Justin Masterson trade pitches, according to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports (via Twitter). Rosenthal reports that Cleveland will listen on Masterson, with the idea of targeting players that would remain under team control for more years.

Masterson, 28, enjoyed one of the best seasons of his career in 2013, posting a 3.45 ERA and 9.1 K/9 in 32 outings (29 starts) for the Indians. However, he's entering his final arbitration-eligible season, meaning he'll likely earn between $9-10MM in 2014, based on Matt Swartz's projections. Masterson will also be eligible for free agency a year from now, so the Indians will have to decide soon whether or not he'll be part of the club's long-term plan.

    More than likely we’d require an MLB ready SP along with Middlebrooks and a bullpen guy…at least that’s what I would think would be fair.

    Well I suppose that depends upon your definition of “tremendous”. Sure fans like him, I like him too. RBIs are of very little importance in player evaluation though, and the idea of “clutch” hitting over a large sample size has been essentially debunked. There is something to be said for a cheap 1.5-2 WAR player, but nothing tremendous imo.
