CLEVELAND, Ohio – Scribbles in my Tribe notebook.
1. Let’s start at the top of the lineup. It took a while for Terry Francona to make the obvious move of Cesar Hernandez to leadoff, where he hit part of last season. But the veteran second baseman is a mess at the plate, batting .172 (.528 OPS) heading into the weekend.
2. Hernandez had a period early in the season where he hit into lousy luck. But that’s not the case lately. Hernandez is only 31, so he shouldn’t be in decline. He batted .283 (.763 OPS) for the Tribe last season, leading the American League with 20 doubles. He’s a career .275 hitter (.730 OPS). So it’s probably safe to assume this is some type of early-season slump.

When Tina Bolt resigned her position as chief financial officer for Hoover City Schools in March 2019 to take the same job with Huntsville City Schools, it didnât take her long to realize she missed Hoover.
Nine months later, when a finance director job opened up with the city of Hoover, Bolt jumped at the chance to come back.

El Paso County to resume apartment evictions on Jan. 26; but Biden’s proposed stimulus could extend moratorium into fall
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) A local landlord attorney and an El Paso County court magistrate confirmed Friday that the county will soon return to holding eviction hearings that have been suspended during most of the COVID-19 pandemic.
On Thursday, attorneys for landlords and property managers began filing requests for hearings and the first is scheduled for Jan. 26 five days before a moratorium on evictions for non-payment of rent mandated by the Centers for Disease Control, expires.
However, that date will be moot if Congress passes a proposed stimulus package from President-elect Joe Biden, extending the moratorium through the end of September.
