Cleveland Indians Must Turn Free Agent Rumors Into Deals

Related Topics: Cleveland Indians, Free agent

The Cleveland Indians came about as close as a team can come to winning a championship in 2016, and are favorites to be back in a similar position in 2017.

There aren’t any glaring holes on the roster, but the team cannot afford to decrease in talent, even if only by a small margin. The expected addition of Michael Brantley should only help the Indians, while a full season from Yan Gomes will add to the existing talent base.

But one spot in the lineup is yet to be fulfilled, and that is the one vacated by Mike Napoli.
