Player Notes
November 6, 2008
Kelly Shoppach or Victor Martinez might end up wearing another uniform next season as the Indians are considering trading one of their backstops to bolster their bullpen or infield, according to The Plain Dealer.

Our View:The Indians certainly need bullpen help, but with the health of Travis Hafner completely up in the air, why don't the Indians just stick Martinez at first and allow Shoppach to catch? If either backstop is moved, they will likely bring a bounty in return.
September 29, 2008
Kelly Shoppach underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee Monday, according to the AP.

Our View:The procedure was performed by Dr. Mark Schickendantz and was considered minor by the team. He is expected to be fully recovered by spring training. He hit 21 homers this season over 112 games while filling in for the injured Victor Martinez.
September 15, 2008
Kelly Shoppach has continued his hot streak on Monday night, with his 21st home run.

Our View:Shoppach has four home runs in his last five games and seven RBI in that same span. This season for Shoppach has been a pleasant surprise for the fantasy owners.
September 12, 2008
Kelly Shoppach went 2-for-5 on Friday and connected for his third home run in as many games. He added three RBI to his total.

Our View:Shoppach, 28, has been a pleasant surprise for owners this season. His homer on Friday was his 20th of the season.
September 10, 2008
Kelly Shoppach homered not once but twice Wednesday night in the Indians 7-1 win over the Orioles.

Our View:The two home runs for Shoppach were his first in nine games and his 18th and 19th of the year. Even though his average is low at .271, he continues to pile up the home runs.
