Status: offline 		Cleveland Indians president of baseball operations Chris Antonetti told reporters on Monday that the medical outlook for centerfielder Leonys Martin appears to be good as he tries to recover from a bacterial infection.
Antonetti said that as of a few days ago, the infection was life threatening and had affected multiple of Martin's organs. Cleveland had placed Martin on the disabled list on Aug. 9 with a non-baseball condition.

"We're optimistic that he'll have a full recovery," Antonetti told reporters. "Now, to give you a little bit of backstory of how we got to this point, Leonys had a bacterial infection that entered his blood stream, and when it entered his blood stream, it produced toxins. Those toxins did damage to his internal organs and the functioning of those organs was compromised, and it was severe. ... Thankfully, he's made a lot of progress in the last 24 to 36 hours, and he's regained a lot of the organ function."

Martin has played just six games with the Indians after they acquired him in a trade with the Tigers on July 31

Was an awesome throw. I liked the angle from behind Laureano.

That's probably the craziest part of it.

On the fly
Shoulder high to first baseman. He just had to wait for it.

It would have taken Ben Revere 4 throws to get it there. And it still would have been on a hop.

Will never forget our last get-together, we were all along the first-base line, watching him throw in warm-ups.
Hard not to chuckle.
I wouldn't have put him out there in beer league.
Weakest arm I've ever seen that was actually allowed to have a career.

Whuppin them again today, early.
Time for the Umps to even things up, like they did the other day.
Because, ya know ... some teams just deserve some help I guess.
Somedays, You'd think Bettmann was running THIS league too.

Their GM has a much better touch with improving a product than the wonder boys.

85 wins last year. They'll probably pass that too. And still suspect in pitching. They just find ways to win.

Chacin has been on the scrap heap a long time

Will be 12-4 after today(probably) and had 10 K's in 7IP

Lots of teams missed on that.

And

Lorenzo Cain hitting .304 at Milwaukee. Who knew he had anything left?

I get it, local hero and all that baloney

But do you want to win next year, or prop up the shell of his former self for another 2 years, 3 years?

Even one year?

Pisses me off. Joe is so done. He should pull a Whalen and announce the retirement. If he goes through one of those whole season things, he'll be aw shucks at all those stadiums.

Whoop-de-do.

NOT what the focus needs to be on. But will be. Stupid.
