Spring Training Strike Three

I got to watch the game today and am not going completely off the box score.

Three Up
1. The play that Luis Valbuena made in the 9th was B E A utiful. Who cares if the guys was safe, plays like that will make people forget many guys that played middle infield for the Indians. This guy, this guy, maybe this guy, Tony Fernandez, but never this guy.
2. VICTOR!!! Two no-doubt-about-it jacks.
3. Matt Herges pitched well again and Kobayashi hot-dogged it out of a jam. (Yeah, I know really old joke).
Three Down
1. Grady will miss the WBC because of a groin injury. I think the WBC is a joke, but I still think the idea of representing your country is cool and I think he would give them a better chance to win.
2. It seems way to easy to hit home runs at Goodyear Park.
3. Ryan Garko in left, hehe. I think Garko is an underrated bat, but if Victor and Shoppach are hitting he won't see much time. He didn't screw up at all, but he's way to slow to play in the outfield. So it sucks in a cyclical way.

By the way Kellen Winslow certainly got out of here fast. He already had a press-conference in a Buccaneers polo. But he insists that Cleveland treated him right. Elsewhere in the news Harvey Dent was traded from DC to Marvel.
