Cleveland Rocks

Another disappointing year has come to a close for the Cleveland Indians. I can't be too terribly disappointed because expectations were A LOT lower than what was actually achieved. They only finished a few games out of first in the division and wild card. Last year we had our melt down in August, so pushing it all of the way to the last week of the year is a major improvement. They made up 13 games in the standings in only a couple of months, so they deserve a lot of credit for what they achieved. It was too little too late, though.
If you scroll down to one of my original posts, I mentioned that I was a little nervous about the signing of Juan Gonzales...Juan went 0 for 1 in 1 at bat. He got off the DL for one stinking at bat. Thanks. Appreciate the help.
But with a young nucleus nailed down through at least another year, things are still looking bright. There is still hope. And considering how horrible life was to begin the season and how well the White Sox played, I still have the optimism for next year.
