at least Alexei looked better. As for his Cuban mentor...

how cool would it be to have a legitimate pitching prospect?

dare i say, lays an egg

granderson now has 4 HR's in 10 AB's against Weaver

ass kicking. Thanks, Obama.

gee, what a shock

really. a 4 pitch walk.

Okay, silly question: why does the first baseman show the ball to the umpire when he records the third out and takes the ball back to the dugout? Is he getting his permission to take it out of play? Why then doesn't an outfielder who tosses the 3rd out to the crowd do the same?

don't know what he was looking for there. obviously not something right down the middle.

I'm glad to see count's velocity up. His breaking stuff will come around. When Chicago warms into Havana this summer.

Well, I'll give Kong a pass this time. He rarely grounds into DP's.

I don't see any team pulling away or any team fading fast. I thought the tribe might do a first half disappearing act, but they seem to be getting their act together.

BA is a solid 4 tool player - I've never seen anything to make me think he can hit for average. But as long as he has good AB's, sacrifices, takes some walks, hits somewhere around .250 and chips in the occasional long one, I'll be content. I've resigned myself to this. His glove and arm make him special.

i love it when they have his speed somewhere in the lineup. That tag up from 3b to a ball hit to short right was awesome. So many more scenarios come into play when there's speed on the bases.

thank you Mark Buehrle, for teaching Danks how to bury that cutter in on the righthanders. Plus, he just pitches with the air of a badass.

garza is a head case
