Cleveland Releases Johnny Damon

Five days ago, the Cleveland Indians designated Johnny Damon for assignment.  Thursday, the 38-year-old outfielder was released.

What say you, Twittersphere!

Sweet ass or not, Damon had been struggling this year for the Tribe, hitting just .222 in 64 games. He did manage, however, to inch closer to the 3000 hit plateau.

Dude leaves Cleveland with 2769 base knocks on his resume.
