Description

1) First segment, why it is unlikely that Nolan Jones or Ty Freeman get traded this offseason. We talk about the players we would hate to see go but also understand to get someone you got to trade someone. 

2) Time to review the 1981 MLB draft, the Indians drafted George Alpert who after three years of struggles with the Indians. He would switch to football to play wide receiver at Penn State. It was an odd draft with the two picks coming from nontraditional programs and future Indians Joe Carter arguably the biggest name in round one. The biggest name in the class is a future Hall of Famer who was a basketball recruit to a small school.

3) While the Indians struck out in round one. They drafted a player in the second round who has the fourth highest bWAR of all-time among second-round picks. Neal Heaton was the star of the class. We get into him and others while also digging into other famous names.
