16 Apr Coming Together? Last night's win in Seattle was significant for a couple of reasons. First Trevor Bauer continues to anchor the rotation while several others are struggling.

24 Mar On To Minnesota We are now four days away from the season opener in Minnesota. I checked the weather forecast and was surprised to see temperatures forty degrees and above. I don't think they will have to worry about snow this time around. Speaking of worrying I can't believe the Indians lineup will probably have Brad Miller at second base and Eric Stamets at short.
