  Oh boy...the beginning of Travis "Halfyear?"

  Looks like Grady's spot just opened up. We might as well shut Hafner down for 2 weeks anyway...

  About the Tigers and Tribe, but Ill post it here since this will get more traffic now. But very good article from Grantland (quickly becoming a must read for me each day) about a lot of what I posted, and others as well, in response to ClassyPoster.

  Love Grantland. The Triangle Blog is great. Can't start my day until I read About Last Night.

  Tribe sent McAllister back to Columbus today, and called up SS Juan Diaz from AA Akron.
  
  Hannahan and Hafner still out of the lineup, and Brantley gets the night off.
• royal_k

  

  With Hafner hurting, it would be a good time to call up LaPorta. He's still hitting over .320 with 13 HRs. And we are facing a LH tonight.
  
  IMO he would have been a better call up than Diaz, who's never been in the bigs before.

  Diaz is more than likely just up for this series. Tomlin will come off the DL Monday to start the series opener against KC. If Hannahan or Hafner need to be DL'ed at that point, I could see the organization looking to LaPorta.
• Crimson streak

  

  I don't get the call up? He's batting 232 with 3 hrs and 18 rbis. Basically the dude sucks in aa why would he get the call up?

  Is he fast? Pinch running if we dont plan on playing him?

  Hopefully my White Sox can gain some ground on the Indians this weekend.

  Infield depth with Hannahan still hurting. Didn't call Donald up because he isn't going to play and they want Donald to stay in the lineup in Columbus. He'll be going back down Monday when Tomlin comes off the DL.

  Sox drilling Gomez. First Dunn, now Fuckface.

  You can put it on the boooaaarrddd Yeeessss
• wes_mantooth

  

  This guy from the Sox is terrible.....the tribe is missing pitches right down the middle.
• wes_mantooth

  

  Johnny Damon showing off that cannon in left field....lol
  
  ugly game for the tribe so far, they look pretty bad.
• grodt

  

  I have no idea why Damon is in LF and Duncan is DHing
• hoops23

  

  Damn has the worst arm I've ever seen. No excuse for a man to not be able to throw further than what he did earlier in the inning.
  
  Seriously. It wasn't deep and he couldn't even get it past the pitchers mound in the air.

  Even with the nice start of the season....Acta has made a lot of questionable decisions.
• hoops23

  

  Chicago fucking owns us at home.
• wes_mantooth

  

  blah, well....they pretty much mailed it in tonight. down 6-2 now and no signs of life....acta using the iffy part of the pen now anyhow.

  the sickening thing about it was how many 89 mph batting practice fastballs their starter through down the middle and the tribe couldn't do shit with them. Just a bad night at the park
