Wahoo Week, Day 1

Coming off a great season but disappointing finish in 2017, the 2018 Cleveland Indians have unfinished business to tend to. The team lost a few familiar faces in the offseason, but many members of the squad are back, as well as some new blood.

Ray will have interviews with anyone and everyone around the baseball team, from the players to the front office executives, all the way down to the person who puts the bases on the field.

The excitement is in the air for baseball fans in Northeast Ohio as Andrew Miller was acquired from the New York Yankees via trade Sunday.

Sports Anchor Hakem Dermish from News Channel 5  chatted with Sam Bourquin Monday about the game-changing lefty and what he brings to the ballclub.

Hakem said he knows the Indians gave up a lot to get Miller, but in order for the Tribe to be playing in the postseason and succeeding in the postseason, they had to make a move.

 


In addition to Miller, the Indians picked up Jonathan Lucroy from Milwaukee, but he vetoed his no-trade clause and ended up staying with the Brewers.

With the trade deadline coming up at 4 p.m. Eastern, Dermish believes the Tribe's not done dealing.

"I'd love to see them add a bat like (Carlos) Beltran,  I think he adds pop to the lineup."
