Indians Coming into the season, everyone was somewhat expecting some problems within the Yankees unit, as they’ve become a very old/very young team, who didn’t do much of anything over the off-season. Injuries have of course, hampered their success even more, but I don’t think .500 was an unreasonable projection for the month of April for them…the Tigers, as we all know, began atrociously, but have really grinded their way back into the fold. I think its actually incredible that they have managed as good of a record as they have, considering what an awful start they had. The indians, on the other hand have seen significant struggles from ace C.C Sabathia (who is apparently not reading the Manny Ramirez ‘how to step up your game in a contract year’ book), and pretty much their entire line-up other than Victor Martinez.
