Cleveland still not planning on spending much in free agency

Here’s to more good than bad this week.

Here’s what I’m hearing as spring training approaches | cleveland.com

Just sadness. From Terry Pluto:

When Tribe President Chris Antonetti said the team did have some money to spend after trading Francisco Lindor and Carlos Carrasco to the Mets, I tried to find out how much. The payroll is in the $35 million to $40 million range. I’m hearing they can add another $5 million to perhaps $10 million (at the most).

Maybe watching the 2021 MVP will make you feel better.
