Well Boys.....

There starting lineup will consist of 9 baseball players.......and I am not necessarily being facetious. This just seems like such a bland faceless bunch. There is little pop in this lineup. They will be lucky to have a guy hit 20 HRs or get 100 RBI.

Starting pitching should seem solid.....OK, do something.

 

I guess I have just grown weary of mediocrity.....or at least I have grown impatient of it.

I'm studing up on the Tribe in due time I'll have my lineup.

Well Brantley being out to start the season will hurt. I'd say the order will look like:

Ramirez 3B

Lindor SS

Kipnis 2B

Santana DH

Gomes C

Napoli 1B

Chisenhall RF

Rajai Davis LF

Naquin CF

 

My wild cards in the lineup are Ramirez and Naquin. With Brantley out, Naquin has a chance to crack the lineup as the center fielder. These two have had productive minor league careers as hitters (average pretty much no power), but are huge ifs at the major league level.

Nice. Gomes in the 5 spot is perfect.

I'd say Almonte will most likely be the starter, just hoping Naquin lights it up because he has a better bat.

 

Brantley has been pretty much guaranteed to not be there for opening day. I prefer he doesn't suit up until he is actually ready or he'll look like Kipnis from 2 years ago.

Well Boys, The Tribe go on 1st road trip & spoil Chicago's home opener in the cold than snow & than sun than snow. Winning formula, Good pitching, timely hitting & solid fielding. Fun to watch. Napoli looks like a solid addition..

Wouldn't it be nice if the Indians would actually play some baseball games? I think they need to reconsider the baseball situation.....start the season where the southern/western/dome teams is where the games are played the first two weeks of the season.

Seattle, Toronto and Milwaukee have retractable domes
