Put More Coal on the Fire

Ahh, the gas man.  Thanks, Tony.  Ooops, gas men.  Introducing the new right-handed model: Justin Masterson.  Way to steal another win from Fausto, guys.  Less that 2 weeks left.

On the someone who's had it worse than the Tribe front, Oakland A's 1B prospect Chris Carter (#28 preseason in Baseball America) broke an 0-for-33 streak last night.  An 0-for-33 streak to start his career!  That's just about the only way to be pleased with an .029 average.  I'm told it is the 3rd longest stretch by a non-pitcher to begin a career in modern baseball history.  The Padres Joey Hamilton holds the all-time record, pitchers inclusive, at 0-for-his-1st-57.  Take solace, Chris. Take solace, Luis Valbuena.
