Good news! The Paw Sox aren't playing tonight. Woohoo! Thankfully, Terry Francona is sending out a real lineup after the shellacking last night.

Various reports coming out of Cleveland see rookie Michael Brantley surpassing 2005 first round pick Trevor Crowe for the starting spot in the Indians 2010 center field. The problem with Crowe is not so much that he has underperformed -- which he has -- but that Brantley has excelled, hitting nearly .340 in a limited trial, with a .576 onbase percentage against lefties, even though Brantley bats left...
