The Tribe are 5-0 and on a roll after they topped the Oakland Athletics (a much better nickname than the A's) 14-10 on Monday. Join the IBI's Arthur Kinney as he looks back at this game and the best and worst performances of the day, all while working in references to Casey Coleman, Jackson Browne, the Cincinnati Reds, and THE Ohio State Buckeyes.
BASEBALL IS BACK!!! INDIANS WIN!!! Can it get better than this? Actually it can. This is, after all, only the preseason. The IBI's Arthur Kinney breaks down the good, the bad, and the ugly from yesterday's opener in Goodyear and how much, if anything, we can actually read into any of it...
The winter ball season officially ended for all Indians players last night as Mexico outlasted Republica Dominana in 18 innings for a hard fought 4-3 win, and the title of baseball champions of the Caribbean. Join Arthur Kinney as he recaps the game, wraps up the performance of some Indians' players in the Caribbean Series, and more.
The Round Robin stage of the Caribbean Series is two-thirds the way over.

Eze's not here?!
The Maya were wrong, so here's the final installment in the TR's seven week look back at the player movement for the past season in the Cleveland Indians organization.

Welcome ot the final full edition of the Transaction Rundown. There will be a September 1-7 edition to cover the September call-ups and any pre-playoffs shuffling to the Aeros and Captains rosters, but I'm not sure how the final four weeks of the season will be handled. Watch this space next week for more info.
Another week of transactions is behind us and the pace of roster movement has not slowed down at all. Notable call-ups include Cole Cook getting the call to AA, Dorssys Paulino making the transition to playing in front of fans, and Matt LaPorta getting yet another crack (his last?) at the big leagues.
While this was one of the quieter weeks in terms of the transaction wire, that doesn't mean it was boring. The past week saw the Clippers roster briefly hit 21, a trade with the Orioles, multiple promotions, Josh Tomlin and Kyle Petter on the DL, the clearing of the Tribe's DFA backlog, the professional debut of Caleb Hamrick in Goodyear, and the return of Roberto Hernandez to the Major Leagues.
Whew! What a week! At one point the Indians had four players designated for assignment (is that some sort of Major League record?). The Clippers roster ended the week standing at 22 (a few more callups sans countermove and we could be looking at the Grand Canyon of roster holes here).
