14 Aug The Race is On Here we are in mid-August and the Indians and Twins are in a fight for first place. At the moment, Minnesota has a half-game lead, much different than the eleven and a half from a few months ago. The Twins are still hitting home runs at a record pace but their pitching has fallen off a great deal. It is amazing to me that the Indians have rebuilt their pitching staff in the course of several months. The rotation of Clevinger, Bieber, Plesac, Plutko and Civale is extremely young but is getting

30 Jun A Step Back After a pretty good week, the Indians dropped two to the Baltimore Orioles by a combined score of 26-0. It looked like the Indians were really hitting their stride when they got taken apart at Camden Yards. Even if they win today they have already lost the series to a last place team. I am happy the Tribe brought up Bobby Bradley from Columbus, but so far he has not been able to hit. I am not sure how long you stay with him before sending him back down.
