The Kevin Youkilis rumors continue, as it was reported yesterday that the Philadelphia Phillies, Cleveland Indians and Arizona Diamondbacks have interest in the Boston Red Sox third baseman.  ESPN’s Jerry Crasnick tweeted that the Phillies and Ind...

In case you couldn’t tune in or live outside of the area, TD and I had a chance to talk sports with Les Levine yesterday. Les is the best in the business and honestly just as nice a guy as you could ever meet.  We talked about the Indians, the...

Who had this one pegged? The Indians were looking to add to the back end of the rotation after the season ended. They made their first move rather quickly. On October 31st, just a week after the World Series, GM Chris Antonetti acquired a 38-year old...

Now these are the games that make baseball so fun and so frustrating at the same time. For the first seven innings, the Cleveland Indians looked well on their way to an easy win against the Minnesota Twins at Target Field. Starting Pitcher Jeanmar Go...

Ryan Doumit's two-run blast sailed into the upper deck in left field, and he was swarmed by his teammates as he hit the dugout to celebrate his game-tying, eighth-inning home run.

If you are an Indians fan, you had to feel good about what you saw this weekend. The team once again battled all weekend and took two of three from the Oakland A’s, capping off a 7-2 West Coast trip. When it started, everyone was worried that w...

If I told you that the Indians offense would put up six runs on 10 hits and Justin Masterson would be the starting pitcher, you’d have to say you like the team’s chances, right? But as a wise man once said “that’s why they pla...

Matt LaPorta’s defense hasn’t been missed in Cleveland so far as the Tribe faithful have enjoyed every minute of Casey Kotchman’s glove at first. At the plate though, Kotchman hasn’t impressed just yet with his one hit in 16 a...

There are 365 days in a year, but only one that counts and that’s Opening Day in baseball. And with all due respect to the games played in Japan and baseball’s Opening Night on Wednesday, Thursday was the real Opening Day. There’s n...
