Quote of the day
"We've got that scrappy-type and gritty-type of team. It may not always be pretty, man, but somehow we're going to find a way to get it done. We just love coming to the ballpark right now. Things are rocking." -- Cleveland 1B/OF Nick Swisher, after a 6-0 win over Seattle (& Felix Hernandez)

Daily blurb
Every now and then, the Cleveland Indians are decent. Usually not when they are expected to be. And sometimes it’s fleeting. Which is one reason why I feel compelled to point out that they are now 8 games over .500 with a two game lead in the AL Central, even though we’ve only completed one-quarter of the season. History suggests that by the time we get to the midpoint, it might be too late to gloat. Off-season acquisitions Mark Reynolds and Nick Swisher are key components of the success, while Justin Masterson has already been involved in four shutouts, two of them complete game 1-0 gems. And is Terry Francona also a reason for the success? Who knows?

Boo Weekley was the most widely owned GuruGolfer this week, so his +11 didn’t go unnoticed by many. Unsurprisingly, the weekly winners were Weekley-free, with two Boo-less teams tied for the top best ball score (-48). On the worst ball side, top scoring Masters (+48) was able to make better use of Weekley, who personally contributed +12 to that team’s score, in spite of sitting out the weekend.
