* Who’s Hot and Who’s Not:

HOT – Michael Aubrey .542 (13-for-24), 1 HR, 7 RBI; Matt LaPorta .400 (8-for-20), 1 HR, 3 RBI;

NOT – Chris Gimenez .000 (0-for-18), 9 K; Ryan Edell 0-0, 16.20 ERA, 6 ER, 3.1 IP

* Chris Gimenez seems to be recovering fine from a concussion suffered Tuesday. He is listed as day-to-day.

* Josh Barfield will join the Clippers in the next couple days. He’ll play second base and outfield. Clippers second baseman Luis Valbuena will move to shortstop and third base a few times a week.

* Harold Cooper will be the Grand Marshal for the downtown “Opening Day Parade” on Saturday. Fromer Indians Bob Feller, Len Barker and Joe Charboneau will also be in attendance. The parade begins at 1:30pm in the Arena District.

* Tuesday (4/21) and Thursday’s (4/23) games will now start at 6:05pm instead of 6:35pm because the Columus BlueJackets are hosting Detroit in the NHL playoffs.

* Don’t forget… the first Dime-A-Dog Nigh at Huntington Park is Monday.

Tonight: Clippers at Toledo, 5:30pm on AM 920 WMNI.
