ITEM:



Indians' Jason Donald has broken hand

Associated Press

GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- Third baseman Jason Donald will not be ready to

open the season for the Cleveland Indians because of a hand injury.



Indians trainer Lonnie Soloff said Saturday that Donald has a small

crack in the base of the long finger on his left hand. Donald was hit

by a fastball from Gavin Floyd of the Chicago White Sox on March 5.



"It is disappointing, but I'm already looking down the road, preparing

to play," Donald said. "Getting hit is part of the game. It could have

been a lot worse. I could have needed surgery and been out a lot

longer."



Donald will not participate in baseball activities for seven days,

then start a return-to-hit program.







LOSER: Bombers, first for retaining the light-hitting utility

infielder in the first place, now for watching him languish on DL, as

team's fortunes fall faster than Libya's anti-aircraft missiles. Trend

continues DOWN.



WINNER: Riptorns, and not just because Jayson Nix will get some

well-deserved ABs, but especially because the Tribe's decision to even

consider Donald as 3B starter means Lonnie Chisenhall ($10-Riptorn

wunderkind)  will soon man the hot corner.  Rips' long-term fortunes

trend UP.
