The Cleveland Indians Infielders weren’t very kind to Roberto Hernandez last night, a host of errors helped the Angels to score 5 runs in the second inning. It was some of the ugliest baseball the Indians have played all season, it was almost as the Cleveland Indians were replaced by a little league team. They were making bad throws that were so far off target the Angels could...

One of the decisions the Cleveland Indians will have to make in the next year involves outfielder Shin-Soo Choo, who has been their most effective offensive player. Choo leads the Indians in virtually every offensive category except RBI. The 30-year-old left-handed hitter is hitting .284 with a .368 on-base percentage and .470 slugging percentage. He also leads the team with 14...

Choo, Brantley, Kipnis, Cabera, and Santana are the only position players that are fun to watch. Sometimes Masterson, and always C. Perez, Pestano, and Smith are fun to watch.
Kotchman, Duncan, Hannahan, Marson, Donald, and Lillibridge are not. Carrera might turn out to be. The departed Lopez, Damon, and several relief pitchers were not.

PRO TIP: A change-up is coming
Major League Baseball is, at its core, comprised of two groups of teams. Both want to win as winning is the root of call competition and baseball is, by and large, rife with highly competitive individuals. One group yearns to do so, so badly, that that they are willing to do whatever it takes in order to better their chances at reaching the pinnacle...

Roster Update
Josh Tomlin was placed on the disabled list today with right elbow inflammation. In his place, Roberto Hernandez will be called up for tomorrow's start. While this could be a phantom injury that was made up for a little roster flexibility, there is a good chance this is something much more serious. Tomlin has struggled all season in ways he never has before in...
