Heading Towards the 480 Bridge

I know it's just 3 games. I know a baseball season is a marathon, not a sprint. But c'mon! Being down a combined 18-0 in the first 2 innings of each game is down right horrifying. Allowing 29 runs in 3 games is an abomination. Another sign of bad things to come was Grady Sizemore promptly leading each game of with a strikeout. The Tribe fell to the Rangers 9-1, 8-5, and 12-8, but the games weren't even that close. There really isn't much to say about the series, besides...




Lee and Carmona were bad, but weren't a complete disaster.

Carl Pavano is really really bad and a complete disaster. I want to pick him up in my fantasy league just so I can cut him.

Sans the long ball, the team collectively had really no clutch hits whatsoever.

The Indians are still in sleep walk spring training mode.

Hafner's swing still looks slow.

The review was pretty short because I just don't have the heart to rehash this garbage of a series more in depth. The great thing about baseball is tomorrow is another day, another game, and the home opener. Scott Lewis takes on some guy named Scott Richmond of the Toronto Blue Jays. Let's pray the rain holds off and the starters allow less than 5 runs.

Carl Pavano should be thrown off of the 480 bridge - he blows!
