Coming into today, the only team the Indians were better than in the American League was Detroit, and the Tigers absolutely annihilated the Tribe. A few comments about the team in general, up through this point...
1. I think we all want the Sabathia of last regular season, not the guy who was terrible in the playoffs. Unfortunately he looks like he's having a playoff hangover... of crappy pitching.
2. Stay with Betancourt as closer even after Borowski comes back from the DL. I haven't seen a pitcher this automatic for a blown save since Jose Mesa.
3. More Runs. Offense. Hello? Where are you? Are you gonna show up today? The pitching won't so I thought I'd let you know...
If things keep up, I'll have to switch to my "contingency team", the Mets. I really like the Mets, but I don't follow them anywhere near as much as I do the Indians... except when the Indians really suck, then my attention is split. The way the first two and a half weeks have, gone, it looks like by this time next month I'll be devoting time to the Mets on my Blog.
Heck, I may even ignore sports for a while and focus on more important things like music and politics (i don't want to get political on here though... I may get a little salty and even more egregiously verbose).
On that note, I'm outta here. Just like the Indians chances if they keep up the craptacular play.
