CLEVELAND - The Indians have reached the All-Star break portion of the 2012 schedule. Despite battling some key injuries, the tribe is in contention for the American League central division title along with being in the hunt for the American League wildcard.
The Tribe goes into the break at 44-41, three games behind the Chicago White Sox for first place in the American League Central division and just a half game ahead of the Detroit Tigers for second place in the division.
Once the All-Star break wraps up later this week, the focus shifts to the non-waiver trade deadline in Major League Baseball at the end of the month. Could the Indians make a deal by then and if so, who could it be?
That's just one of many topics 92.3 The Fan Indians beat reporter Matt Loede talks about to NewsChannel 5 sports director Andy Baskin about on the July 8, 2012 edition of the Ford Sports Sunday.
