Spawn of Dybzinski, Fosse, Heidemann and Brohamer

Edit: Funny the Reflecting the Cliff Lee trade mentioned the Justice trails, etc. I had just completed the following update earlier today.

Normally I only do this post once per season, but with the plethora of trades this summer, I thought I’d provide an update. And I think I'll start posting at the end of the season now instead for this very reason and that the rosters are much more stable since nobody is moving around (duh).

I have included compensation draft picks as being more than one degree as the Indians obtained that pick based on a player they formally held rights to. Also, when I have identified a free agent year, it is the year they signed for (i.e. December 05 would be 2006). Additionally, whenever I could not find confirmation of an amateur free agent signing, the year defaults to their first appearance. [Notes: aFA = amateur free agent, mFA = minor league free agent]
