After a strong year, suitors may be plentiful for Casey at the bat

Chuck Crow/The Plain DealerAfter making a good impression in Los Angeles, Casey Blake figures to get plenty of attention as a free agent this off-season. One of the teams interested would be his former employer, the Indians.
DANA POINT, Calif. -- The easiest way to make the Indians' infield whole for the 2009 season is for General Manager Mark Shapiro to find a third baseman. "Any starting infielder would be an easy fit," said Shapiro, shortly after arriving at St. Regis Resort on Monday for the GM meetings. "Third base is the easiest fit of all because we wouldn't have to move any pieces."
If Casey Blake isn't the most convenient third baseman available, he's the most familiar. He played 5 1/2 seasons with the Indians until they traded him to the Dodgers on July 26 for right-hander John Meloan and catcher Carlos Santana.
"We know Casey," said Shapiro. "We appreciate Casey. We know what he does as a teammate and athlete. That doesn't mean he's at the top of our list, but he's a guy we have definite interest in."
Blake finished the year hitting .274 (147-for-536) with 36 doubles, 21 homers and 81 RBI. He hit .289 (94-for-325) with the Indians and .251 (53-for-211) with the Dodgers, whom he helped win the NL West and reach the NLCS.
In the process, Blake created a market for himself.
