A couple days old now, but the Indians picked up Mark DeRosa. It's a nice trade that gives the Indians a lot of flexibility in the infield, like moving Peralta to third and Cabrera to short. I had the Indians as a narrow favorite in the division, and this makes it less narrow.

Guillen plays just enough to get his feet wet, but with good results.

Lee has started aggregating the defensive rankings. Cabrera=not that bad.
