The worst part of Westbrook going on the DL is the fact that it means Jeremy Sowers is now part of the regular rotation. Yes, he's a lefty and that makes it slightly more dificult to hit his pitches. But the guys a soft tosser. If he missed his spot just once, it's out of the park. Some pitchers can get by with mistakes because they either throw hard or their pitches have a lot of movement. He's a second rate Jamie Moyer in my mind. I really wish Adam Miller was healthy and ready. I almost am tempted to have Brian Slocum to start a couple games, he wasn't too bad at AAA. Maybe the recent minor league signings can do something. Just because no one else wants Dan Reichert and John Halama, does not mean that they can't pitch for the Indians. It's almost getting sad at this point, I can't wait for Fausto to return. But anyway, Sowers went 4 runs giving up 7 hits and 5 runs. However, Elarton did actually pitch well going 3 scoreless innings, maybe he's next in line to get a start, who knows anymore. And the Indians game was also sad beacuse the Indians had a great chance in the 8th loading the bases with 1 out against Miner. But of course, Peralta and Francisco struck out ending any chance of a comeback. Well there it is, another disappointing day for Indians fans.
