Jason Johnson

Okay, let me ask the same question that everyone has been asking -- how the hell does this guy stay on the roster in light of what Sowers (and Guthrie for that matter) have done in Buffalo?

It's gotten to the point where I'm becoming convinced that the answer must be that Jason Johnson has pictures of Wedge and Shapiro with a live boy or a dead girl. Not only does Johnson dig the Indians a first inning hole last night, he then makes a snide comment about Blinky's decision to pull him after five innings ("I wanted a chance to keep the team in the game, but Eric Wedge had a different idea.")

Sure, Mota was his customary disaster, but a guy with these numbers has no business even looking cross-eyed at his manager, much less dissing him to the media.
