Check Out That Johnson

The Tribe has added a solid piece through a minor league deal, 1B/DH Nick Johnson.  The Yankee's opening day DH last season, Johnson's career has been plagued by injuries, but if he can stay healthy he will provide some veteran insurance behind Matt LaPorta.  Having yet to make a move after officially adding Chad Durbin, 2 players must be dumped from the 40-man.  One will be Shelley Duncan.

Former Indians Jody Gerut and Bobby Howry have hung up their spikes.

It seems likely that Jeremy Bonderman will sit out the 2011 season.  The Tribe's interest in the hurler has cooled dramatically in recent weeks.

The pitching thus far has been outsatnding.  Today, Carlos Carrasco, Zach McAllister and David Huff each threw 2 shutout innnings.

Cheers
