    Indians and Mariners Have Some Interest in Ryan Howard

    That is the rumor anyway.

    Phils would probably eat a lot of the contract.

    Indians need him bad.... got no clean up hitter on the roster.... Howard could revitalize his career somewhere else

    Tribe has a lot of left handers in their lineup. Not sure if it's worth giving up prospects for such a big contract

    agreed, but he could be OK somewhere else... Hes never gonna hit 50 HRs and drive in 120... but he could bat .250 with 30HR and 90 ribbies somewhere else. Indians need a guy like this badly. His presense alone would help that lineup. Indians are like 20-3 when they score 5+ runs...

    Philly should unload him for best deal they can get since they will be paying majority of salary. May as well see what Lee can get too.

    Seattle does not need another big left handed bat. makes no sense for them to take on howard.

    Mind boggling since both the teams are know for left handed hitting. Indians have been hitting well lately, all 9 batters. If they bring in Howard so Giambi doesn't have to play then it's an okay deal

    Tribe needs a good right hander hitter, they suck against lefties.

    itd be better than the Red Sox and their stupid Stephen Drew signing

    he strikes out when no one is on base

    double plays if someone is on base

    that's about it

    trash. pure trash.

    The Royals could use anybody that could hit dingers. All they can do is hit singles!

    Bad contract. But is not having a bad year and normally heats up when it gets warm
