Many Levels of Pro Baseball in NE Ohio
Indians fans lucky to have so many farm teams nearby
Tuesday, July 8, 2008

Sad to see CC Sabathia being traded. The Cleveland Indians are now looking to young players, including minor league players, for their future. Area fans are lucky in that they're able to watch many of those prospects play - without even leaving the region. WKSU Commentator Paul Gaston appreciates that ...

Paul Gaston a former sports writer, spoke at the 50th anniversary of the Baseball of Hall of Fame induction ceremonies. He's now a professor, who lives in Hudson.














Listener Comments:



I was listening to Paul Gaston go on about how wonderful N.E. Ohio is if you like baseball. He apparently was trying to compare it to other areas of the country. The Indians ought to hire him as a 'PR' man because he is sure putting out their company line. Without going on and on about how places like Phoenix,Dallas etc. etc have much more and better baseball available, year around in some cases, one can not get past the futility of the big league team in Cleveland and the ongoing inability or unwillingness of ownership and management to consistently do what needs to be done to get 'over the top'.

No I'll take my baseball elsewhere. At least the weather is better in some of those places.

Thanks.

Lee Adams
