A listener asks: Why can't the Guardians develop hitting stars as well as pitching stars? Darius Garland's injury complicates his trade value and future with the Cavs. The Cavs may not make significant moves this offseason due to Garland's situation. Should the Cavs consider bringing Jarrett Allen off the bench? A listener asks: How about shortening NBA games to 40 minutes? The Cleveland Browns have had 40 quarterbacks since 1999. Here's who's tied Deshaun Watson with 19 games. Nick Chubb has a classy departure to Houston.
