Byte-Sized Baseball Cast 1.5: Dominance in Detroit and Tribe Clubhouse Drama
In the return of the Byte-Sized Baseball Cast, Jake discusses the Tribe's sweep of the Tigers over the weekend as well as the drama in the clubhouse concerning starters Zach Plesac and Mike Clevinger breaking COVID-19 protocols last week and the fallout that has ensued.
Byte-Sized Baseball Cast 1.4: Lindor Extension Talks Stall
It's something everyone expected, but didn't want to admit: the Indians and Francisco Lindor are no closer to agreeing to an extension than they have been. That was the sentiment when the All-Star shortstop announced to the media this week that negotiations were put on hold for the season. So the question is where do the Indians go from here? Do they start considering a trade? Can they still remain competitive after he's no longer on the roster? These are questions I try to address in this week's Byte Sized Baseball Cast.

Byte-Sized Baseball Cast 1.3: State of the Tribe Farm System 2020
The MLB Pipeline top 30 Indians prospect list has been released, which makes this a good time to get into what's going on with the Tribe farm system heading into 2020 and which players could be on the rise in their development this season. Find out more about the Indians' heavy investment into the international market, who could be Francisco Lindor's successor, and which top prospects could impact the big league club this year.

Byte-Sized Baseball Cast 1.2: Bauers and Zimmer Seeking Redemption, Prospect Talk & Lonnie Baseball's Retirement
Cactus League play has officially kicked off, which means we're another step closer to the 2020 regular season. As the Indians continue their spring preparations, I'd like to give my thoughts on two players who have come into camp with a lot of confidence heading into the year and are hoping to reestablish their worth on the big-league squad. Plus, I give my top three prospects who could make an MLB impact in 2020 and wax nostalgic on Lonnie Chisenhall's career in Cleveland in the wake of his retirement announcement.
