If Trevor Bauer was Cleveland Indians’ GM, he would trade Corey Kluber and himself | Cleveland.com
A click-baity title followed by a fairly reasonable article. Someone was talking about something similar to this earlier, I feel...
If I were to be traded, the only thing I wouldn’t miss about Cleveland is Paul Hoynse articles. The whole (bauer says something + 24 hours in the basement = click bait title + bauer shitpost) formula is just so transparent, stale, and absurd. pic.twitter.com/9yQLUz2bbl

Around the league
- Edwin Diaz and Robinson Cano have been traded to the New York Mets.
- The Mets may not be done yet:
Sources say the Mets have spoken with the Indians about Corey Kluber. The two teams had talked about Yan Gomes before he was dealt to the Nationals, but the Mets' interest now appears to also extend to Kluber, who had Mets manager Mickey Callaway as a pitching coach in Cleveland.
