08:03 AM ET 01.24 | Sharing a city with the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, Cleveland has considered getting some members of the band back together. The Indians are looking to add a hitter, have a few bucks to spend (but not too many bucks) and are considering a reunion with several former longtime Indians. Jim Thome and Travis Hafner are two of the ex-Indians being considered, among other free agents. There has been a hint of buzz about a possible Manny Ramirez reunion, but the ex-Indians great who is tearing it up on the winter league playoffs is not a consideration at this point. ... Other free-agent hitters still available include Aubrey Huff, Luke Scott, Carlos Lee, Jason Giambi, Juan Rivera, Johnny Damon (another onetime Indian) and Casey Kotchman (another ex-Indian).

Out of this bunch the best all around player is Huff, who can play multiple positions and also is a average hitter.

Ha! What an awesome story.
Say what you will, but if I had my choice of these folks, I'd like to see them bring Manny back.

Huff does not "play" multiple positions. He loiters in an area on the field while his team is playing defense.

Oh, yeah. I hadn't even considered that. Still hard for me to relate to the fact that Francona is the Tribe's manager.
Alright, then give me Thome.

Did Tito bring in Brad Mills as his bench coach?

They make a good team. Tito handles the clubhouse and Mills deals with game management.

Who cares? I just hope he brings his pain meds!

I am certainly not expecting much, but if every possible thing goes exactly perfectly for the Tribe in 2013, this might be a fun team to watch!
