Free agent Casey Blake is looking for a three-year deal this winter. He’s viewed as the top third baseman available, though he’s not as good as a healthy Joe Crede. We keep hearing that he came up big for the Dodgers, but he had a .313 OBP and a mere 23 RBI in 58 games for the club. Also, he is 35, and while he’s kept himself in very good shape, he’s a below average defensive third baseman. He may have to settle for something like $14 million for two years. The Indians and Dodgers are interested in having him back. (Rotoworld)

However, general manager Mark Shapiro said Monday that the Indians “have definite interest” in free agent Casey Blake. Cleveland traded Blake to Los Angeles in late July, and Shapiro explained that “we know what he does as a teammate and athlete” despite his not being “at the top of our list.” Blake’s agent said Monday that the Dodgers are also interested in re-signing Blake.
