Only April and I'm already tense about this series with the Brewers.

The Indians need another mascot... Does Kyle Denny still have that cheerleader outfit? I'm sure he still puts it on from time to time, for luck.

Looks like Borowski is heading to the disabled list.
The Indians will have to rely on the equally-awful Rafael Betancourt to close games for now. He gave up all of four home runs last year. In the first two weeks of this season, he's given up three.

Milton Bradley is now on a 10 game hitting streak. He just extended it to double digits with an RBI double.
Rangers are up 1-0 on the Angels in the 2nd.

I can't help but feel sorry for the Tribe. I'm not too overly familiar with Borowski but what gives? He having arm trouble or can you honestly get a job closing in the majors throwing like somebody's sister? He doesn't appear to be a lollipop painter. I would have to assume he threw harder at some point. He reminds me of a young David Weathers. Nothing but spankable pitches. Believe me, I know the feeling. We had Danny Graves. He was a chump. Somehow he got 40 one year and they seriously thought he could close despite a few season's worth of evidence to the contrary. You want to see your closer and think "this is over" not "oh smurf, what's he gonna do this time?" You sit and try to silently prevent the manager's call through the tv. You know it's going to be him, but you'd like to believe. If only for a moment.

DP was just telling me a few days ago how good this guy has been for them.
BTW, Jed "I'll have Julio Lugo's job by 2009" Lowrie makes his first career start tonight. Playing at third to give Casey a day off.

You guys aren't stealing our Sweet Caroline. Take Billy Joel.

I support your cause, god sir, and if I knew anything about this website's format, I'll add your picture... stupid system I know nothing about

I know that a whole lot of good teams aren't doing the greatest right now, and I'm still not worried because the first month of the season really doesn't decide anything. That said I still wish my Braves would get on a roll. Chipper still having a great year though.

Mets win 6-0.
Pelfrey has 7 shutout innings...but then again, my grandmother could shutout the Nats.
