Cold Weather can't slow Hot Tribe start.

I went to Friday and Saturdays games this weekend, and just finished watching today's game on tv. Here are some observations I saw from this weekend and thus far this season.

- On Friday Carmona's stuff was certainly there, but his lack of control is what led him to give up the home runs to Uribe and Dye. He had to come in with fastballs and they didn't miss em.

- Byrd seems to be an entirely different pitcher from last year. He has been mixing in a splitfinger this year that was really effective Saturday against the Sox. If he can continue to pitch just 75% of what hes show this year on a regular basis the Indians will have one filthy rotation.

-Borowoski started a bit shaky but has thrown strikes and been consistent as of late picking up his 5th save already. Saves really mean very little to me, but it the Indians haven't had a lot of late inning high leverage situations. There was one today, but C.C. Sabathia took care of that 8th inning himself.

-Im not quite sure what kind of opinion i have on wedge's bullpen usage thus far this season. To my recollection there hasn't been a whole lot of high leverage situations late in the game. The couple I recall were either created by the reliever himself ( Hernandez or Davis walking a few), or when Sabathia was still in the game. It will be interesting to see if the heart of the lineup is up with a guy or 2 on in the 8th for the opposition and who Wedge uses in that situation. Im gonna guess a mix between Fultz/Betancourt/Hernandez, but I hope he uses Borowski for the biggest part of the game.
