We're about to deliver a little Fab50 Numerology Good Mojo: 13 is now the number for Grady Sizemore.

The Cleveland Indians organization is expecting great things out of this lucky lefty, and he's not one to disappoint.

Sizemore had a wonderful 2003 season, hitting .304 with 13 HR and 78 RBI in 128 games with the Akron Aeros.

We thought so much of him in 2003 that he was named the MLN 2003 Eastern League Player of the Year. [Article Link]

Sizemore is a natural athlete who was a heavily recruited quarterback out of high school. He turned down a scholarship to the University of Washington to sign with the Montreal Expos in 2000.

Unlike a similar scenario played out with the Yankees last year, this QB still wants to play OF in the MLB. Given all indications, and the structure of the major league club, he is well on track to make that goal with some additional seasoning.

Grady came to the Cleveland Indians organization in 2002 as part of the deal that sent Bartolo Colon to Montreal.

At only 21-years old, Grady is still a young player in the International League, and at times it shows. This season, he’s hitting .268 with 6 home runs in 61 Triple-A ballgames.
Many aspects of his game are still very raw, but he has tons of potential and the tools to be a star in the majors. Fans in Cleveland, you have been informed.
