But when Manny Acta said something to the effect of "we hope Grady can play around 100 games this season". So, we picked up an option on a guy who, if 100% healthy ALL YEAR, still missed about 60 games for rest. Not to mention, the odds were at about 1% he would be able to stay healthy.
  
  That really irked me. Like, I wanted to throw something.

  Yeah, and of course he's already hurt before the season starts. I really hate the Dolans...

  Good times! Damn, Joey...you're starting to look like the love child of Grady from Sanford & Son and Romeo Crennel. Still my favorite Tribe player. Nobody punished a pitcher like Albert Belle...

  Tribe opened the Cactus League season today fighting to a 6-6 tie with the Reds. David Huff looked good today starting and pitching 2 scoreless innings. Frank Hermann...not so much...he was tagged for 4 runs.
  Michael Brantley led off the season with a bang... a double to start the season off.
