why. SCOTT JACOBS Alright, before we kick this thing
off, let’s play Who Am I. Here we go. I lead the AL in home runs and play for the atrocious Cleveland Indians. Today on Around the Horn, my name was mispronounced. In 2002 I was part of the package the Indians received in exchange for Bartolo Colon. My name is Grady Sizemore
