Indians Will Listen To Trade Offers On Veterans
6 years agoDue to market restraints, the Cleveland Indians will listen to trade offers for some of their veterans this winter, including starting pitchers Corey Kluber and Carlos Carrasco, designated hitter Edwin Encarnacion and catcher Yan Gomes. Shortstop Francisco Lindor and infielder Jose Ramirez will definitely be held. Despite being on the wrong side of 30 years old, both Kluber and Carrasco will be attractive because they are two of the better pitchers in baseball and are on team-friendly deals. Encarnacion will be 36 next year and while he still has plenty of power (32 homers in 2018), he's nearing the end of his career and is an injury concern. Gomes will be 32 next summer and had a fine season, hitting .266/.313/.449 with 16 long balls and 48 RBI in 112 games for the Tribe.
