Veteran Jim Thome never fathomed he would get a statue of himself outside a big league stadium.
The Indians will unveil one of their longtime slugger this summer at Progressive Field, according to an MLB.com report.
"It's going to be pretty awesome," Thome said. "How do you ever imagine when you play this game, getting an opportunity to have an organization put a statue up? I'm a little lost for words, to be honest. As a player, I don't even want to say you dream of that."
