Jhonny Peralta is a baby? NOOO!!!!

It seems for the first time in his Cleveland Indians managing tenure, Eric Wedge is finally feeling the heat from the hot seat. He has done something he has never done before while managing the Tribe. And that is calling out players....by their name!

As of June 19, the Indians sit in dead last, with a 29-39 record. Only seven games out of first, but c'mon, we all know the season is over. They are a bad team. Chances are things are not going to turn around when you have Ryan Garko playing left field and Jamey Carroll as your second baseman.



"I'm through babying, coddling, protecting these guys. I've tried everything else. I don't know what's left. Maybe publicly calling them out will get their attention."




He did call Jhonny Peralta "a baby" and "needs to get his head on straight." What Jhonny needs is a few batting lessons with Eddie Murray. Oh wait, Eddie isn't here anymore?

He also called out Kelly Shoppach, the backup catcher. "I can't continue to play him if he's going to strike out two out of every three times." There is a reason why he is called "backup".

What I really want to hear is Travis Hafner's career is over, Grady Sizemore doesn't have an arm, and Victor will not be wearing a Cleveland Indians uniform come July 31st.

Another rebuilding year...wait....years are ahead for us Tribe fans.
