Moves

So the Tribe put Delucci on the 15 day DL today. They also designated Hernandez for assignment (at long last). They called up Ben Francisco to replace Delucci and Edward Mujica to replace Hernandez.

Here's hoping they give Standford a shot at that spot when Westbrook gets called up.

It's interesting to note that the Tribe signed five veterans in the off season. Delucci is now on the DL, but up until this point he's been well below average, saved only by a few timely hits. Nixon is in the midst of a ridiculous slump. Hernandez was awful all year. Fultz is actually less effective than Perez. That leave Borowski.

Personally, I think Michaels deserves a chance to play every day. The man has certainly made the most of his chances.

I said to my friend Matt (a Red Sox fan) the other day that it must be nice to know what your line-up would be if the post-season started tomorrow.

I'll admit, however, that it's always interesting.
