Ok so would everyone rather see Grady batting, after the 7, 8 & 9 hitters, or after Brantley and Cabrera? Forget leadoff spot, who would you rather see him batting after and where would his rbi chances be better suited?

As for .500 in at the end of April, Wedgie (06) 13-12, (07) 14-8, (08) just missed at 13-15. Charlie in his 3 years (2000) 13-8, (01) 14-9, and (02) 13-13 after starting out 11-1 they went 2-12 for the rest of the month and finished 74-88 that season. I guess the Phillies didn't care how he talked if he could start them out good.

Runners on 2nd and 3rd with a nice sac bunt by Everett. Thus is our chance.

I don't like Sizemore at 3. He hasn't earned it

Hammy just said that Tomlin has set a club record for going more than 5 innings for the 16th straight start. I wonder who he beat? Feller...Harder....Gaylord?

Go Tribe!
