Gee, Hafner was a man while playing injured. To bad he contributing nothing toward winning in the process. Hard to imagine Wedge did not notice that he had difficulty doing ordinary tasks.

Looks like Westbrook will be lost forever and a day. Too bad they didn't sign CC to a market value contract last year. Now the pitching will be short several starters for next season.

Hey, did you even read the rest of the article? The doctor said that an arthroscopic procedure would not retard his return. Did you see the word "arthroscopic" and decide it was too big of a word, and stop reading? Or was it the negative haze that you view life through that prevented you from seeing the rest of the article clearly?

Short several starters? If I knew I could meet you after next season for the payout, I'd bet you $100 right now that the Tribe starting pitching will end up in the top 25% of the AL next season. Have you seen Reyes pitch? With Lee and Carmona as their #1 & #2, they'll have a very solid top three. With continued improvement, Sowers and Laffey will be fine in the #4 & #5 slots. One or both are ready to really make a mark in the majors. Westbrook will return just in time to help if someone falters.

Actually, I'd like to meet you right now and slip some Zoloft in your tea. I know folks with debilitating illnesses or handicaps that have brighter outlooks than you.

Hey East Side Bandwagon and Try And find a new team.

Go be fans of teams that do not have injuries.

Indians do not need bitch and whiner bandwagon fans.

Hafner will be fine in the spring and Jake back by August.

Haf's injury sounds more and more like what I experienced in college... he'll be back with a vengence.

Oh, and Tryitagain/OMG.... go poop yourself.

Daily Horoscope for December 20

Gemini

Grit your teeth as Mars turns retrograde, as things annoyingly don't go to plan. Certain people are going out of their way to be difficult. Is an older relative throwing the proverbial weight around and telling you what to do? The greater the gap between your ages or social status, the more irritated you'll be.
