Cleveland Indians: Tribe rundown- February 20th, 2019

Well, with baseball news heating up and the Cleveland Indians being days away from their first Spring Training game; it’s time for the rundown to return.

Hello to our beloved readers. The rundown is back now that we’re getting back into the swing of baseball season. The Cleveland Indians have all reported to camp and the first Spring Training game is on Saturday. Baseball is finally back, baby.

With baseball being back that means, we have Trevor Bauer coming back into the news cycle. Of course, this time it’s about his dating life. We don’t dive into the details here. It’s not really of serious interest, but yeah. Bauer is really catching flack from the media. We need games to actually start so we don’t have to focus on these stories.

Okay, on to actual baseball news. There was a free agent signing recently that you might have heard about. That’s right; the Indians have signed Tyler Clippard to a minor league deal. Clippard is a bit of a journeyman, although he had respectable 3.67 ERA last season. Clippard is a two-time All-Star from his days with the Nationals, so he’ll look to get back to that level if he can make the big-league club.
