    The Indians made history today!

    Smallest crowd in Progressive/Jacobs Field history! (10,071)

    I assume that was paid attendance, and the actual was half of that?

    ^ From the crowd shots the actual might have been 1/4 of that.

    I think Brantley is gonna be a pretty good player. I agree on the others though.

    Peralta was overvalued forever because of the offensive numbers he put up as a shortstop, but now that he's moved to 3rd those numbers suddenly aren't very impressive at all. The guy is a .265 career hitter who's never eclipsed even 90 RBI. He'll get hot for a month at some point, but be pretty terrible the rest of the season. When he is your #5 hitter you know you're in trouble.

    I got in a lot of arguments about Valbuena on the old huddle last year, but I still just don't see anything from him. I don't think he'll ever be more than a .250 hitter who can flash the glove a little.

    And Marson is probably the worst player in baseball. Nothing more needs to be said there.
