Imagine if we had kept Phillips
I loved Phillips so much as a player and was so mad when they got rid of him. Glad the analytics back me up.
I we gonna do one of these for lindor lol. Im just lazy
Any way you guy higher resolution? I can’t read any of that.
Forgot about Jason Knapp. He was a 2nd round pick with a 97 mph fastball. Had some arm injury and never really wore the uniform much at all.
Remember when Yasiel Puig was the hottest thing in baseball?
woah
Chris Archer would have been helpful in 2016
Bravo on putting this together!
The front office is usually excellent at selling guys at their peak value. It seems like most guys traded fall apart shortly after being traded. Obviously there a few exceptions, but generally it’s true. They are great at buying low, and selling high.
If I was a GM for another team, I wouldn’t even answer a call from a 216 area code.
It obviously ended better for us but this guy is still one of my favorite Cleveland pitchers of all time.

Really interesting graphic and shows a series of good decisions on the organization’s part. Not sure if giving them credit for 18 WAR because Donald happened to be part of the Choo for Bauer trade is fair to the process though. That he never played a game for AZ (or any team after leaving Cleveland) shows how consequential he was to that deal.
Now blow your mind and do Clase’s tree 🤯
Is it fair to say Lindor has 21 WAR? Most of that is on a new contract. He would never have gotten 21 WAR for us, he was a goner after 1 more season.
Zero titles
I can’t zoom in to see any details without it being blurry

Fantastic breakdown … and to think there’s still moving parts on this 22 years later
