Texas Two Step

I don't know which is more shocking, the fact that we just swept another team or that I was able to come up with another title involving the team and some reference to two.

It was good to see Byrd pitch well, although he still concerns me. He's a lot like Borowski and Wickman: always one bad pitch away from letting the flood gates open.

The big story of the day was, of course, Shin-Soo Choo. He really did set the tone for the entire game with that incredible throw to get Lofton at the plate. That had me "woo"-ing it up. He was 2 for 4 today, too.

It should also be pointed out that we are undefeated with Choo on the roster. Hell, we're 5-0 with Casey at third, for that matter.

The one thing I've always liked about Wedge's approach is that he views the season as a long string of series, and that the goal is to win each series. So far the Tribe has only lost one (albeit in horrible fashion).

Considering the log jam of players we have at almost every position, it will be interesting to see what kind of team we're putting out there around mid-season.
