You know that everyone says he is a pull hitter but he is not. He spread the ball around very well last year. You would know he has LASIK in the 08 offseason and attested his improvement last year to it in part. Hitting between a good Haftner (TBD) and Choo, who can also be good might mean some good looks for Peralta. He has power and is streaky like the other poster said.
You would also know he should not be playing SS on a major league team. Only Jeter might have worse range.

PS. Last time the Indians started the season 0-3 they won 99 games.
What about 0-4? If they had any kind of pitching so far I could get excited about Hafner driving the ball well. It looks like a long season though.
Less talking about schools more talking about places to get really drunk and find chicks to bring back to a hotel. Also, one of the people I'm gonna be there with is getting married in the summer so we're throwing a semi bachelor party. Whats the best strip club?
on a side note: hafner slugging can only be good news. and derosa with the double in the ninth is encouraging. problem's gonna be the starting pitching (ldo)...
hey guys... what is the vibe on LaPorta right now? I tried googling to see when he is projected to come up (or if) but figured you guys will have a better feel on that.

Reason: also plz tell Lee and Carmona to step up
the longer LaPorta stays in columbus, the better the chance i go down to see him....who knows? depends on several things, really...
tonight: fausto dominates. his sinker was killer his first start, just wasn't accurate. tonight, he'll have it going...6-1 tonight and i'm not as worried going to sleep later...
WTF is with Fausto? I don't think I've seen him throw a low sinker for a strike in two years. Everything is either up or in the dirt, he's walking tons of guys, and he's just getting hammered every time out (both last year and this year). I don't understand how someone who was so dominant in 2007 has completely face-planted since then, and I don't think we can blame his control problems on his injuries anymore.
