Just In From the Desert

Travis Buck is 4-for-5 with a homer over the first two spring games.  Although, my gut reaction is "this dude sucks, why is he in camp," I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt until he stops hitting.  With the injuries to Grady Sizemore and Trevor Crowe (right rotator cuff), either Buck or prospect Ezequiel Carrera (Russell Branyan trade) is likely to be the 4th outfielder come opening day.

Fausto Carmona has been named the Tribe's opening day starter.  I'll be there and so will you.

Anthony Reyes, coming off of Tommy John surgery, has a sore right elbow.  Although this is not uncommon, Reyes is shut down for the time being.  Let's hope he stays that way.

Jared Goedert is 0-for-4 in the first two.  I'm not worried yet.  Also, he played 1B on Monday and will likely be the starter there if he lands in Cow Town.

Scheduled pitchers for tomorrow... today... 03.02: Carlos Carrasco (starting), Kelvin De La Cruz, David Huff, Doug Mathis, Zach McAllister and Chris Perez.
