Four Keys for the Indians Offseason to Be Successful and Still Make a Title Run in 2019

4. Find a Diamond in the Rough

The Indians front office has no issue with giving chances to players that are interested in coming in, working hard, and trying to boost this team with a hard work ethic.

They have found certain players over the years in free agency, ones that slip through the cracks of other teams and end up sitting out there – even last season there was one in Rajai Davis, who while he wasn’t the impact player he was in 2016, he did add a veteran presence.

Two years ago they found Austin Jackson, and another from last season was Cabrera, who wound up hitting .280 after he was on the roster, was let go, and then came back.

It will be interesting to see what players they can get to come to this team in 2019, but let’s not forget there’s two things the Indians can offer a vet – a chance to play, and even more so a chance to play in the postseason if you take care of business in the AL Central.

There’s not many other teams, if any, that can almost ensure that you will play as well as be on the postseason roster if you can produce.
