Focus is on Pronk and Laffey

Another big night for ex-Indians in Dunn Tire Park as the Bisons and Lehigh Valley IronPigs get set for the third game of their series. Travis Hafner is back in the Buffalo lineup tonight batting fourth as the DH. Josh Barfield is also in the lineup on rehab. Victor Martinez is taking a scheduled day off and is slated to catch all nine innings of Thursday afternoon's 1:05 p.m. game.

Aaron Laffey is starting for Buffalo tonight. He's 5-1, 2.35 in eight starts for Buffalo this season and 2-0, 1.80 in three starts since returning earlier this month. Laffey, in fact, has thrown 14 scoreless innings over his last two outings. We'll have updates on Hafner (with a few words here or there on Barfield and Laffey) on the next post. In the meantime, here's the Bisons' lineup:
