Congrats on popping your Razzball comment cherry! I'm not sold on CSH. His HR/FB ratio was higher than he had in the minors so I think he'll see a drop in HRs to 15 if he played full season. So maybe he's Ben Francisco 2008 which was just ok....we'll do our best to keep up the witty commentary... @Tommy: Hey Tommy. Congrats on popping your Razzball comment cherry! I’m not sold on CSH.

I agree VMart is in another class separate from the pack. However, I would have thought the brightess hitting upstart on the Cleveland roster would be Chin Soo Hoo. I say that because he has an exellent minor league track record and his limited appearence at the end of last season was stellar...he is young...he had an injury lapse with TM surgery...but he looks like a hitter that could rake 20HRS and bat above .280...he could be the replacement of the mystery man T Hafner who might never show his bat again. By the way great site...love the playful but witty commentary! I agree with most of the comments made but I have a marginal disagreement with the hitting expectations.

I just wish they could pay someone, but they never will. They need all the pieces to stay healthy and come together at the exact same time (while contracts are still low) because once guys can hit FA and are worth two cents they leave..... If CC throws his second half in cleveland the way he did in MIL and Cliff pitches like he did? Tribe is in the postseason, its such a coin flip how things work out.... @Baron Von Vulturewins: they made a great run second half, only ended being out by 7 games i think? it was just too little too late.

I seem to remember that Unfrozen Indians Fan was a popular recurring character last season; i.e. the guy who wakes up and is like "Cliff Lee is pitching like Cy Young? We must be ten games in first! Wait? Whaa!!??" @Tony Y: It’s all coming back to me now.

Well being from OHIO and a LIFE LONG cleveland fan, they got so bad when the whole team decided to get hurt! CC pitched like a terd the whole first half, then magically gets traited and realizes "hey I KNOW HOW TO PITCH!!!" as he goes on to have the best second half in baseball. Carmona, hurt, pronk hurt, vmart hurt.... Throwing Triple A guys in the central doesn't work. Then Cliff Lee pitches like an ace and earns a cy young, thanks cliff where were ya in 2007? You know when we needed to win 1 of 3 games vs the Red Sox? You know when we had a chance???? Wow i'm feeling violent right now? damn tribe so disappointing sometimes. It's tough being a cleveland fan, tribe, browns, and cavs, wow... We can only pray LBJ wins a title this year and THAT is enough to keep him in cleveland, otherwise, ughhhh back to the drawing board.... I believe the tribe can compete in 2009, but win it all? Pitching is too sketchy, They need miracles from 2-3 pitchers that are unknown rightnow.... thats not odds i'd take in vegas. @Baron Von Vulturewins: When did the Tribe get so bad?
