Tribe set to report with familiar faces
Return of core players should make staying on top possible
CLEVELAND -- They are hungry to repeat as American League Central champs, eager to build off the disappointment of Game 7 against the Red Sox and familiar by design.
They are your 2008 Cleveland Indians, and they head to work on Thursday morning.
The faces comprising this impassioned bunch should be recognizable. The Indians made no major tweaks to the club that won 96 games and toppled the Yankees in the Division Series last year. Pitchers and catchers report to the final camp in Winter Haven, Fla., on the morning of Valentine's Day (no, it's not just for lovers anymore). Position players will report on Feb. 19, while the first full-squad workout will take place Feb. 21. The first exhibition game at Chain of Lakes Park is Feb. 28, against the Astros.
