One of those days...
Just didn't feel much like writing today. Got some big thoughts on my mind that will probably get explored in this space eventually. Probably the near eventually.
Anyways, good win for the Tribe to bounce back from that breakdown yesterday. Overcame some mistakes, got some clutch hits, Fat Bob reasserted himself. Good Win. Got to get at least two more this weekend. On a related note, I'd like to see more ABs for Jose Hernandez. He's shown some ability to hit in the clutch as of late, and he can't really do any worse than the Blake/DuBois/Liefer debacle that we have going on at RF/DH with Hafner out. Came through with a big pinch-hit today. I'm not saying that he's an everyday player, but neither are those guys, the way they've played thus far. With the DH spot open (thanks Mark Buehrle), I'd like to see Hernandez get maybe 7 or 8 ABs this series, even though it will be against righties. Blake can play all the same positions as Hernandez, so you don't lose too much flexibility off the bench, and its not like anyone is swinging a hot bat. Mix it up a little bit...and pray Hafner has made a full recovery so he can step back into the lineup good to go on Tuesday.
Played golf with the big TK today; had a good time even though we both played horribly and had a whole lot of other stuff to discuss. Wet conditions are just terrible for my golf game. Went down to the apartment, moved some stuff in, started getting stuff put together. A productive day, if not the simplest one. More to come.
