Top Five Tribe Prospects heading into 2008
Top Five Tribe Prospects heading into 2008

POJO_Risin POJO_Risin posted 12/26/2007 from mvn.com

The Cleveland Indians have become a model organization in building and re-building a minor league system. Some fans would say to a fault, as Mark Shapiro has seemed to be the antithesis of his mentor, John Hart, in dealing away those prospects. As Tribe Report has dealt with the numerous trade rumors over the offseason, it has become apparent that perhaps the Indians and their fans may have...

By the Numbers: 2007 Player Payroll for the 30 MLB Club

Maury Maury posted 1/25/2008 from www.bizofbaseball.com

Here's a detailed look at player payroll for all 30 clubs by Opening Day and End of Year figures... Oh, and by Marginal Wins/Marginal Payroll.. Who spent the most per win, who spent the least, who spent the most wisely, who spent like a drunken sailor and woke up with a hangover. Dan O'Dowd is King. Jim Duquette and Jim Flanagan are Fools. Sabean and Shapiro bookend, as well.

NJ.com: Pride of the Yankees found this 6/15/2008 on www.nypost.com

Indians GM Mark Shapiro is both a realist and an executive who is willing to act quickly. And his club has played so poorly and has so many key injuries (Jake Westbrook, Fausto Carmona, Travis Hafner, Victor Martinez) that he is leaning more toward...

The Hardball Times The Hardball Times found this 2/9/2008 on www.hardballtimes.com

Peter Gammons just related a fun story. Apparently, Bill Parcells and Mark Shapiro met at Scott Pioli's wedding (who was marrying Parcells's daughter). At the time, Shapiro was farm director for the Indians. Parcells asked him how things were going. Shapiro started talking about about his players and their injuries when Parcells interrupted him and said, "Nobody gives a shit."

Why the Cleveland Indians are EVERYONE’S bargaining chip

POJO_Risin POJO_Risin posted 12/18/2007 from mvn.com

Calling all GM’s and million dollar agents and looking to get top dollar! If you haven’t done so already, make sure that you give Mark Shapiro and the Cleveland Indians a phone call. Will the Tribe make you an over-the-top offer that is sure to make the rest of the Majors scratch their head? No, Shapiro won’t make deals like that. He’s not exactly frugal, but he’s not going to...

Will Joe Borowski be the Cleveland Closer?

POJO_Risin POJO_Risin posted 12/20/2007 from mvn.com

Is Joe Borowski going to cause the greater Cleveland area to up their life insurance policies this season, or are Mark Shapiro and Eric Wedge going to ensure the Cleveland Indians have a lock down closer in 2008? Tune in to MVN's Tribe Report for the first look at the back end of the bullpen.

The Indians will conduct a press conference on Thursday, April 10 at 3PM ET at Progressive Field. Mark Shapiro, Chris Antonetti and a member of the club's 25-man roster will be on hand tomorrow at 3PM. Hmmm...this sounds like a signing to me.

Carl Pavano is so upset about his salary that he's stopped paying his agent. He hasn't stopped playing baseball, though, that part was just a coincidence.

Oh Look, More Sabathia Trade Rumors!

RockKing RockKing posted 28 days ago from www.waitingfornextyear.com

It’s been about two or three days since we’ve last touched on the possibilities of C.C. Sabathia being traded out of Cleveland. Paul Hoynes recently mentioned that the Tribe is in no hurry to find a suitor, which is actually surprising news. Somehow, I have a feeling that Mark Shapiro is fielding (and making) phone [...]
