Not Cleveland-related, but the Mike Flanagan story is incredibly sad. Not only did he die way too young, but now sources are saying he committed suicide because he was despondent over his part in the Orioles being awful? Just a horrible story, and Flanagan, by all accounts, was a genuinely good dude.

Based on last night, it appears the Browns are rounding into season form quite nicely too. Two to 5 wins looks well within their grasp this season.

Are you guys sure Jim Leyland isn't your manager? That being said, his numbers are better with runners in scoring position and OBP than just about anything else on Cleveland.

Obaldo's dealing tonight!! Nearly half the lineup is KC AAA players but that's ok. He's getting the standard no run treatment our pitchers are usually rewarded with for a good game.
