Wedge is Out in Cleveland
By Chad Gramling | September 30, 2009
Although he will finish out the season, the Cleveland Indians have removed Eric Wedge as the manager of the club.
Two years ago, Cleveland was one win away from a World Series trip. The Indians fell to 81-81 in 2008, but were expected to bounce back and contend this season. However, a slow start snowballed . . .
The 41-year-old Wedge was the AL Manager of the Year in 2007, when the Indians won 96 games — tied for most in the majors — and held a 3-1 lead in the AL Championship Series over Boston before the Red Sox rallied and won three straight.

eric did a great job with what he had. if you took back all the players they traded the last three years the indians would be a loaded team and among the best in the majors, but of course thats the way it goes. fire the manager not the cheap owners.
