what happened to shaprio? Is he the president of the team now? Man do u long for the days of Hart and Hargrove? In the early-mid 90's the tribe were the model franchise on how to build a young team and keep it together.
Shapiro is now the team's president. Antonetti was his asst. gm and understudy so he was naturally promoted. Many former Indians asst's are around the league. Josh Byrnes, Neal Huntington, Dan O'Dowd just to name a few... However, the way Antonetti runs things is confusing. He makes mind boggling moves (like making 2 trades this year to acquire left handed bats when our whole team bats...left handed)...
I miss the days of John Hart yeah. He wasn't afraid to spend nor make steals in trades. But what I really long for is an owner who CARED about the team and wanted to spend...wanted to win. Richard (Can't say what he goes by on here...might be blanked out) Jacobs did. Larry Dolan cares more about his pocket books and the team has suffered for it.
