An idea for umpire/player relations- “Both sides have their points. Players are too short with umpires. Baseball is not just the only sport that allows players to talk back to its impartial arbiters without recourse; its history practically encourages them to embrace belligerence. It is well within a player’s right to inch himself up to within a whisker of an umpire so long as they don’t bump. That millimeter is the difference between a suspendable offense and just another argument, and it invites a culture in which the millionaires can belittle the plebeians.” [Passan/Yahoo]

An MRI performed on the back of Cleveland Indians third baseman Jack Hannahan has revealed mild inflammation around the area of the facet joints. The facet joints are found at every spinal level — except at the top — and provide about 20% of the twisting stability in the neck and low back.
Hannahan, listed as day-to-day with the back inflammation, has not played since May 13...

Tribe pitchers surrendering far too many walks
At the start of play Friday night, Indians pitchers had walked 148 batters this season. Among American League teams, only Toronto (151) had walked more.

When Eric Wedge was the manager of the Indians, I have to admit, I was a fan. I know I was in the minority, but I always liked the fact that he never got too high or too low. He was the same guy, win or lose. I look back at his time here now differently. He made the playoffs just once (2007) and had a winning record twice (2005, 2007) in seven years. He wasn’t exactly Rex Ryan...
