So it’s afternoon. Sue me.

It worked! I put the reverse-whammy on the team by trash talking them. Woo!

CC’s back to pitching extremely well, and he has cut his ERA nearly in half. The pitching looks good. The hitting? Eh.

Grady Sizemore missed the game yesterday, ending his consecutive games streak at something over 300. I’m a believer in days off, no matter what the vocation.

The Indians have played Boston and New York from the AL East. Boston looked good. NY looks exceptionally mediocre. I’m desperately hoping another team can challenge them in the East.

The AL Central is a bad division, to date. Will 85 wins take it? 87, as in ’97? I begin to think so. The Indians have the pitching to contend, but are burdened with some of the most erratic hitting I’ve ever seen.

Though no amount of data will convince me that Hafner looks as bad as he did last year. I see something positive there. I’m likely delusional, but I see it! I do!!
