I've seen a bunch of Indians baseball, so here are some comments:

 

- Bobby Hill plays for the Indians as does Ray Sadler.

- Bullington was the former #1 overall selection from the 2002 draft. His stock has fallen some, and he is now seen as a back of the rotation guy. He throws strikes but doesn't strike many batters out.

- Nate McClouth has had a solid season. He hits for a good average, makes contact and runs well. The power is the only question.

- Ty Wiggington and Grahm Koonce have seen some major league time and have some power, but have never shown the ability to hit for a consistant average.

Bullington was also a teammate of Cub farmhand Luke Hagerty at Ball State. They were both drafted in the first round the same year (Bullington #1 overall, Hagerty a sandwich pick).

Bullington threw very well, strikes galore and was around 89/90. How old is Paulino C? I don't like his stance but he seems like a decent C and hitter.

 

Hill, is he there on rehab because I could run faster down the line.

 

Sadler seems to be a 260 guy with decent speed. it was tough for me to watch the game as I had about 10 girls there for a party.

That sounds like a more interesting story than the game report would be ... 8)

Paulino is 24 He can mash.

 

Hill was actually sent down, but I recall him loafing down the line as well.

 

I was impressed with Sadler's tools. Unfortunately, he has no command of the strikezone.

Uh, I thought the Twins made Joe Mauer the #1 overall selection with Prior being second? :?

Bullington went #1 overall in the 2002 draft.

 

OK. I wondered if that was a typo.

Paulino has a very quick bat. He holds the bat even with his nose and gets the bat in a loaded postion very quickly so it makes me wonder how he would hit off of an off speed pitcher.
