View Full Version : Why is the 2006 team better than the 2005 team?
Why do Tribe fans think that the 2006 team is better than the 2005 team? I'm trying to see it but, I just don't believe it. Although the SP is deeper and the bench has more potential, I think its not enough to make this team better than last year.
Plus
SP Paul Byrd
SP Jason Johnson
C Kelly Shoppach (Maybe)
3B Andy Marte (Maybe)
Minus
SP Kevin Millwood
RP Bob Howry
LF Coco Crisp

Optimism is Reason #1. :D
The more rational Reason #2 is that guys like Peralta and Sizemore now have the first full season under their belts, and guys like Hafner and Martinez are in their prime.

Byrd's stats were very similiar to Millwood's last year.
Johnson is just as good, if not better, than Elarton.
Michaels is better against Lefties than Crisp, AND Hafner, Sizemore, et all, have another year under their belts.
Oh yeah, and optimism.

Bump it, bludgeon it, and bury it in shallow graves all over the countryside.
