Michael Bourn signs with the Indians

Wow. Curveball. Scott Boras surprised them all and sent Michael Bourn to the Cleveland Indians. I am just shocked. I would have thought the Indians were set with Brantley/Stubbs/Swisher in the OF. Look at this line-up:

CF Michael Bourn
SS Asdrubal Cabrera
2B Jason Kipnis
C   Carlos Santana
1B Nick Swisher
DH Mark Reynolds
LF Michael Brantley
3B Lonnie Chisenhall
RF Drew Stubbs

This can do some damage if Chisenhall produces and Stubbs doesn't strikeout 200 times. AND, they have Mike Aviles on the bench, too.  Suddenly, Cleveland looks damn good offensively.
