Bauer is one pretty strange kid. And a very good pitcher. As long as Francona, the pitching coach, Santana and Marson all agree to give him plenty of space to be himself, he can wind up as a top of the rotation starter and we have few other serious candidates for such a rating (he certainly should wind up slotting above our current No. 1). I can foresee numerous run-ins for Bauer over his career and probably more trades than usual for a top arm.

Obituary for Fred Whitfield in today's Baseball America. Wingy was 75. Played for the Tribe from 1963 through 1967. Back year was 1965 (the year I had my APBA set so I think of him as a star hitter) when he hit 293 with 26 homers. Added 27 homers the next season.

Got him in a steal from the Cards for IF Jack Kubiszyn

Yes, Vic, he was. This is the only Cleveland Indian I had the pleasure of meeting. However, I met him when he was with the Pirates. He was in So. Sioux City, NE at the time with another friend of mine when we were introduced. Imagine how I felt when he was traded to the Indians! I was a big fan of his from that time on.

Going through withdrawal. How many days before they count ?? I tried to watch a couple of spring training games on the MLB channel but it's about as exciting as watching paint dry.

First time I watched an Indian game in its entirety in years.
