Still no Mauer – and this is why I never understood all those people who said they needed to move him to 1B to protect his playability. Physical issues\/injuries happen no matter what position you’re playing so he’s still going to have down time now that he’s moved over.

I admit, I gave up even following this game after the Tribe jumped out to that 4-0 lead. Looks to me like Sam Deduno figured something out after those first two innings. And am I reading that boxscore right? Three perfect innings of relief for Logan Darnell? Wow! – JC<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
