Welcome to My World and Some Indians News

Welcome to My World
“There are more important things in life other than baseball, I just haven’t figured out what they are yet”. When I saw the oppurtunity to write about the Cleveland Indians, I knew that I could not pass this up. It’s not every day I find the oppurtunity to do 2 things that I love, talking about the Indians and blogging. My name is Jen and welcome to my world. I was born and raised in Northeast Ohio and grew up on Indians baseball. Hopefully you’ll enjoy reading about the Indians as much as I love talking about them. And I do promise you this, I will not comment on how “hot” Grady Sizemore is or how good Victor Martinez looks in his baseball pants. I might be a girl, but trust me, I can talk baseball.

Sizemore out of line-up again on Sunday
CF Grady Sizemore was out of the line-up again on Sunday due to a groin injury. Sizemore has not played since Thursday. On Friday, it was announced that Sizemore would not be playing in the World Baseball Classic due to this groin injury and Shane Victorino will be taking his spot on the roster. In an interview with Eric Wedge, Sportstime Ohio announcers Matt Underwood and Rick Manning asked Wedge about Sizemore’s injury. Wedge stated they are not concered with Sizemore not being ready for Opening Day. By not playing in the WBC, it will allow him to get the proper rest he will need to be back to full strengh come opening day.
