I'm very jealous of how good your team is.
Im still just praying for a healthy staff and relatively healthy position players all year. They are so good, but injuries are always there great equalizer.

If I was a betting man, I'd say we might see Brantley out tonight. Give him 2 days off vs. 1

Makes sense with Hammels on the mound.

I'm good with taking it easy on Brantley....he'd be good coming off the bench to PH tonight.

From the Indians website:

"Backup catcher Roberto Perez is expected to start for the Indians. Manager Terry Francona is trying to get as many players in as he can during the first few games, and he plans to play Perez more than a typical backup catcher."

Why didn't Lindor just go to first to begin with? Dumb play all around, but EE should have caught it

It never looked like Lindor would win that race to bag. Just go to first.

That said, Encarnacion needs to be alert, because it also never looked like Lindor wouldn't throw to first. I guess we didn't sign him for his defense lol.

He's never been good on defense.....could make outstanding play but not routine ones
