Locked On Guardians - Daily Podcast On The Cleveland Guardians

After the show yesterday I was asked if the Indians did consider moving Lindor then to what teams would it make the most sense. The short answer is no trade really makes any sense at least for now. The long answer is that there are really just two national league teams that stand out as legitimate landing spots if the Indians did retool this offseason.

In today's episode we look at the trade idea from the New York Post about Lindor the Yankees. We discuss how bad this trade idea is, and again focus on how weak the Yankees minors are. The Yankees really can only look to improve via free agency or minor trades, due to this reason. We look at why this trade idea is foolish and why frankly the Yankees do not make trade sense for the Indians or most other teams.

We continue with the question from Friday to explore some under the radar names for the Indians to consider in free agency this year. We look at hitters and pitchers, who might not be big names but could likely bring value to an Indians team which should have a few bucks to spend in FA this year.

We pick up where we left off with the Clippers top ten. We talk about the top five prospects four of which are in the Indians top 10 and two are in the top five. These are all prospects that should be ready to help the Indians in 2020.

The Clippers are an interesting mix of prospects and 30-year-old former major leaguers. The talent level is higher than it was in Akron, but the overall pool of players is much smaller. I again go deep so we profile prospects 10-6 here, and will cover the rest of the top ten tomorrow on Locked On Indians.

The Akron RubberDucks were all pitching and no bats this year. They have eight arms on my top 10 prospects list for the level and had another three pitchers graduate to the majors who started the year there. It was a reliever haven, in general, though several interesting starters also made their way there. As the season went on some interesting bats were promoted to Akron but much of the year it was a squad of players with low chances of major league futures.

We spend some time going around the teams in the ALDS and talk about former Indians signaling out Cameron Maybin as the one who got away this year. Then we finish up our talk from Yesterday on Lynchburg's top 10.

First I give you a recommendation of a site to go check to get more info on the AZL Indians, after that we dive into Lynchburg a place that saw a lot of players pass through. It had a massive migration about halfway through the year, which lead to some difficulty in terms of a top 10. We get the top ten started but spent so long on each player this is turning into a two-parter.
