Jerry Crasnick reports that the Indians are a prime suitor for Johnny Damon.
Oh, wait, he said Shane Victorino. Sorry. Honest mistake:
Momentum is building in Shane Victorino talks. A deal could get done in Nashville.

#Indians have emerged as a prime suitor for Victorino. Terry Francona reached out to him personally earlier in offseason.

Seems like a match made in heaven. For Victorino the only reason to go to Cleveland would be to build value to go someplace else later. For Cleveland, the only reason to sign Victorino is because they can’t sign anyone else.
Not inspiring for anyone, though.
