Indians Never Learn

Posted by David on 19th May 2010

Rebuilding is essential in sports. Every team does it at one point, and the Indians seem to be doing it right now. But are they really? It seems as if the Indians are a staple for grooming players that go on to have equal or better success elsewhere. Players like Manny Ramirez, Jim Thome, Cliff Lee, and C.C. Sabathia all excel for the Indians. But for most of them, they look for winning success elsewhere. Along with the players listed above, there are laundry lists of stars that have played for the Indians in the past ten years or so.

But now the Indians find themselves in the basement of the MLB. No, they are clearly not the worst team, and should not be considered so. But, they are not exactly in favorable position. The Indians have little to look forward to for the future. And when the exciting future gets here, they will be on their way out before the fans of Cleveland realize it. No wonder why LeBron James wore a Yankees hat to a playoff game in Cleveland.

Westbrook grabs distinction as ‘Wild Thing’

Posted by GameSetMatch on 6th April 2010

By throwing four wild pitches Monday, Jake Westbrook tied a Indians franchise record that had been done three times before.

Sam McDowell was the first to do it, in 1961. He did it again three years later, and Steve Hargan heaved four wild pitches in 1965.

GIVING THANKS — Nothing wrong with starting the season by being thankful.

”I’m thankful I’m alive and for everything I have,” Indians manager Manny Acta said. ”I’m lucky to have the chance to win or lose a major-league game. I could be managing in an independent league.”

IT’S BEEN A WHILE — This is the 70th anniversary of the only Opening Day no-hitter in history.

Bob Feller achieved the feat on April 16, 1940, against the Chicago White Sox. Feller, now 91, attended Monday’s game and will be honored at a lunch today in downtown Chicago. Feller’s sister, Marguerite, who lives in metro Chicago and watched her borther’s no-hitter, also will be at today’s lunch.

Cleveland Indians fire manager Eric Wedge, staff

Posted by TheHockeyGuy on 30th September 2009

Indians General Manager Mark Shapiro said “it was the right time” to fire manager Eric Wedge.
The official announcement of his dismissal came early this afternoon. Wedge’s staff also was fired. Wedge and his staff will finish the season, which includes a doubleheader against the White Sox today at Progressive Field and four games in Boston beginning Thursday.


“This is obviously an announcement I never envisioned having to make,” Shapiro said. “This is a very difficult day for me personally and professionally because of the type of person Eric is.”
It is not clear exactly when in recent days Shapiro informed Wedge of his decision. Wedge said that he only had wanted to know his status before the Indians departed for Boston.

Sizemore’s second surgery goes well

Posted by GameSetMatch on 16th September 2009

Grady Sizemore went 2-for-2 in the surgery stat line.


Sizemore underwent successful surgery on Wednesday morning to reinforce an unstable abdominal wall on his lower left side. The condition, known as an athletic pubalgia, was corrected by Dr. Bill Meyers in Philadelphia. Head athletic trainer Lonnie Soloff accompanied Sizemore on the trip to Philly and reported that all went well during the 20-minute procedure, which required a small incision in the region.

So that’s two successful surgeries in the span of a week for Sizemore, who had arthroscopic surgery on his left elbow on Sept. 9.

Six-run third propels Tribe past Twins

Posted by GameSetMatch on 17th August 2009

Indians starter Aaron Laffey was under constant duress on Sunday and Cleveland’s offense wasn’t effective outside of one key inning.

This mattered not in a surprisingly easy 7-4 victory over the Twins at the Metrodome.

Laffey danced in and out of trouble against a dangerous Minnesota lineup, but he held the vaunted duo of Joe Mauer and Justin Morneau hitless while escaping from danger in big spots.

How was he able to silence the M&M boys?

“Luck,” Laffey quipped.

Midsummer Classic a respite for V-Mart

Posted by admin on 14th July 2009

The 2009 season has been a grind and a disappointment. It has been anything but fun for Victor Martinez and his Indians teammates.

For Martinez, a team leader who wears the successes and setbacks of his club on his sleeve, personal accomplishments have been outweighed by the frustrations of playing for a last-place ballclub. Martinez’s inclusion in the 80th All-Star Game festivities, then, is a welcome distraction from a year otherwise gone awry. He arrived to St. Louis with about a dozen family members, and he’s looking forward to being in an environment where the pressure is momentarily off and the fun flows freely.
