New Indians GM

Post by Cardinals »

Brian Walsh will take over as the new Cleveland Indians GM, replacing Kelly.

I, along with Brett, Jason G and John, know Brian from the CBA -- Lape's league that he used to talk about before Lape decided to quit. Brian did a pretty good job building a team over there, and seems like he should be up to the task for rebuilding Cleveland's roster.

Let's all welcome Brian to the league, and we'll probably need to wish him some luck too, taking over that roster.

Great analogy...I was proposed early and often when I was new to the league.

Welcome aboard Brian.

Thanks guys. I look forward to the challenge. I need to familiarize myself with the page layout, league rules, and my own roster before I decide to post any trading block or make any moves, so please bear with me through this learning stage. I promise I will be a very active owner and hopefully before long, turn things around in Cleveland. I look forward to speaking to you all.
