I'll start by saying, for anyone on the fence about buying this book ... Andrew "afh4" Humphries is the Photo Editor, meaning that he selected all of the 130 or so photos in the book and wrote all the captions. And no, I am not kidding. A lot of people put in a ton of work ...

Congratulations go out to all the Jewish readers
of WFNY. Apparently you too can now be added
to the list of people that John Rocker has ill will toward. And for all you Indians fans out there, do you feel as badly as I do for giving Rocker a standing ovation on his first trip [...]

PECOTA has been released. No Depth Charts yet though. Saturday Line Guess Off: Round 5. Jay from Let's Go Tribe put together a 2009 Indians Preview book, which I wrote about 2800 words for. You can order it here, and it ships on February 16th, if you're so inclined. Katz on Wednesday's college hoops results. BetUS has MLB divisional odds up. Mets and Indians? Only $81.5MM was wagered in Nevada on the Super Bowl. It took me way too long to figure this out.

... you’re going to find everywhere else (and, if you’re reading something by me, you likely are…as brevity is not my strong suit), this is absolutely something that you will enjoy as it does not contain the same tired content or pieces that you’ll see elsewhere. The content and the enormity of the project is something that you’ll marvel at as you motor through all 128 pages (that’s without ads too, kids).

Were the Indians a success, a failure or both in 2008?
mvn.com 1/29/2009 — The Cleveland Indians were one out away from the World Series in 2007. How many times have you heard that over the past year or so.

clevelandtribeblog.blogspot.com 2/11/2009 — As I finally pull this “Spring Training Preview” series that unintentionally morphed into a full-blown roster analysis into the garage, only one portion of the team remains - the infield positions and the players involved in 2B/SS/3B. So, since I’m not going to throw up links to the other four ...

clevelandtribeblog.blogspot.com 2/25/2009 — With the first Spring Training game scheduled for Wednesday at 3 PM (airing both on STO and MLB Network, by the by) and all of the focus on these “Spring Training Battles”, I think that it’s necessary to remove this focus on these “Battles” for the last few spots on the roster for a moment and ...

Bleacher Report - MLB 2/7/2009
