Cleveland Indians (2013 Season)

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/fanta...lo-again-trevor-bauer-134130103--fantasy.html
Trevor Bauer is going to be a popular stream selection Friday, as owners look to get him in advance of Saturday's start under the catwalk at Tampa Bay. The Indians initially had Scott Kazmir set as their No. 5 starter, but a rib injury forced the lefty to the disabled list. Bauer is a Top 20 pitching prospect on most lists into the season.

I'm going to sit out the Bauer speculation sweepstakes, and if I wind up missing something special, so it goes. Bauer was mediocre in four starts with Arizona last year (16.1 IP, 14 H, 13 R, 11 ER, 13 BB, 17 K), and the walk problem was also present in his minor-league work (4.2 BB/9). His walk rate dropped in 14 spring innings, for whatever that means, though he also had a dip in strikeouts. Like most 22 year-old pitchers, he's still trying to figure out what works and what doesn't work in pro ball.

Two hits? That's all we got, two goddamn hits?

You can't say "goddamn".

Don't worry, nobody is listening anyway...

SEVEN walks in four innings. :lol:

I wasn't crazy about Bauer when we picked him up, and obviously it's insanely early to even consider writing him off, but his personality "quirks" and control issues were red flags to me. He obviously still has a looooooong way to go to even approach living up to his potential.
