Hart rejects midseason trades to keep Indians core
John Hart refused to trade for a front line pitcher at the waiver deadline. Enrique Wilson stayed with Cleveland as the Indians, in first place, dealt with injuries and hoped rest would help them reach October with key infielders intact. Wilson and teammates expressed confidence in the roster while Hart noted the team may improve once players heal.
