Break in the Waves
clevelandtribeblog.blogspot.com 5/27/2009 — When the Indians began their rebuilding phase in earnest in late June of 2002, trading Bartolo Colon to the Montreal Expos for a slew of prospects, Indians’ GM Mark Shapiro talked up the idea of hitting the fast-forward button on the rebuilding process, attempting to shorten the usual length ...
Indians Fall to Sox Again
deepleftfield.com 7/9/2009 — In news that should surprise no Indians fan, Cleveland was shut down by Chicago 5-1. The loss is Cleveland’s 17th over their last 22 games.

Head v. Heart
clevelandtribeblog.blogspot.com 6/16/2009 — As the Indians season rolls on and the calendar keeps flipping, a dichotomy has emerged within me in terms of how I am viewing this evolving 2009 season.

Indians Attendance Issues??
waitingfornextyear.com 5/2/2009 — For the loyal followers of the Cleveland Indians, there has been a troubling trend for the 2009 edition of the Tribe.

Feeling Guilty for Tribe’s Failures
waitingfornextyear.com 7/6/2009 — Allow me to be self-indulgent for a minute. As I write this article today, I do truly know that the Cleveland Indians and their successes and failures aren’t truly about me. I am writing this post for what I am guessing are a lot of people who are fans of the Indians and feel the [...]
Lazy Sunday Trying to Tread Water
clevelandtribeblog.blogspot.com 6/7/2009 — One step forward and two steps back is certainly not the way to make up ground in a race, but the Indians find themselves once again simply trying to tread water in an increasingly winnable AL Central…just maybe not winnable for them the way that injuries have forced their complementary ...
A Lazy Sunday and The End of an Era
clevelandtribeblog.blogspot.com 8/2/2009 — Before rolling into a LS, it’s time for a not-so-brief look at the past week, not in terms of player movement (for now), but a big-picture look at the unquestioned shift in strategy for the Polo Shirt Mafia and their seemingly new outlook on contention.
