My only fear with Maybin is if he gets Peralta syndrome he could finish a season hitting .026. I mean he'll make Bourn look like Ted Williams. On the other hand, it's possible he could come into his own, which could make him a steal.

What did "I love you Cleveland" say we would have to give up to get him:huh: Maybe it would be a player to be named later since it would be a waiver deal.

didnt go into that...marlins are in rebuilding mode as well so i imagine they would want some prospects i imagine...im guess the hope is that they put him on waivers soon and someone claims him this offseason or before next season

BOSTON, Mass. -- If this is the good news regarding catcher Carlos Santana, what would the bad news have been?
​
Santana, the Indians top prospect, will undergo surgery on his left knee Friday at the Cleveland Clinic and miss the rest of the season. Lonnie Soloff, Indians head athletic trainer, said Santana will need the next four to six months to recover from the operation.

Dr. Rick Parker will do the surgery at the Cleveland Clinic. He will repair the strained lateral collateral ligament on the knee.
​
"Carlos is expected to make a full recovery by the beginning of the 2011 championship season," said Soloff.

Soloff said this was not reconstructive surgery, which usually requires six month to a year of recovery time, because Santana is not having a ligament from another part of his body or a cadaver transplanted into his knee.

Santana was injured in a collision at home plate Monday night with Boston outfielder Ryan Kalish. On a single to right field, Kalish tried to score from second. Santana caught the throw from Shin-Soo Choo, turned and was rocked by Kalish's slide. He was knocked head over heels and a cleat in his left baseball spike caught in the dirt.

He held onto the ball for the out, but was taken off the field on cart with his left leg in an air cast.
Soloff said it is a rare baseball injury.

"Every indication is that the injury to Carlos' knee is outside the knee," said Soloff. "In a case of an ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) or PCL (posterior cruciate ligament) surgery, those reconstructions are on the inside of the knee."

Even though the Indians lost last night Tomlin looks like the real deal. It looks like the Indians pitching is starting to come around with the exception of Masterson but they really need to get some bad and hopefully the young guys with the experience they are getting this year will be much better next year. Only one can hope.
