Moss' time in Bucs' Minors sparks power

ST. PETERSBURG -- Indians manager Terry Francona was not going to pretend to know the details of the reported rift between the Angels' front office and coaching staff, but the situation unfolding in Los Angeles did give him a platform to once again praise the cohesive bond that exists in Cleveland.

Francona made it no secret when he took over the managerial duties prior to the 2013 season that his rapport with team president Mark Shapiro and general manager Chris Antonetti played the largest role in his decision to take the job. In the years since coming to Cleveland, Francona said the cooperation between the front office and on-field staff has only become stronger.
