Nice, did not know this. I wonder how many times they'll mention us trading players to the yankees, or bash the tribe, or say how long before we start to falter. SMH. BSPN sucks.

Don't forget constant talk of Indians attendance as if we're the only team in the MLB in the bottom 10.

They are slowly moving up in attendance now. They should be able to pass TB, KC, and Pitt after this Boston series.

Harold Reynolds on MLB Tonight said he WAS the MVP thus far. He said the easy GG winner on defense (but that was prior to the 2 errors), then last night said he was the MVP when you add in his offensive game to the defense.

Checking in. Go Tribe. Should be some good games. Looking for low scoring, lots of defense. Timely hitting will decide the fate of these games.

Justin Masterson has started twice vs Boston. Record is 2-0 with 1 ER in 14 innings pitched.

15 MPH winds blowing out to right field expected tonight. I am not sure I like all of the right handed hitters lumped together in this line-up they have posted for tonight.

Asdrubal will be hitting lefty though, so we are golden.
And only 4 of the 9 hitters are righty. The most we can have is 7 lefties anyway (and thats with Hafner and Sizemore healthy)...I think thats right.

Could have Santana and Carrera also. Probably giving Carlos a night off. It's been awhile.

As far as Druby being mentioned as an MVP candidate, I think it's well desrved. With his defense and offensive numbers, he's having a great year.

Forgot about Carerra, but I was counting on Santana not being available because he needs the day off. But Carerra wouldnt be giving much power from the left side anyway lol.

5, but who's counting. I have faith in Manny Acta so I'll assume he has punched the right buttons tonight.

No, 4.
LaPorta, O-Cab, Kearns and Marson
Brantley, Asdrubal (S, but will be L with Bucholtz starting), Choo, Buck, and Hannahan are all lefty. Unless you are counting Masterson as a Righty in the line-up posted, but obviously...as a pitcher he aint hitting.

I wasnt counting Masterson's bat. I just wasnt counting correctly from 4 to 5.
