    No thread started yet for the powerhouse Tribe and there 1 game winning streak? COME ON!!

    Jake Westbrook vs Ricky Romero

    1-1 tie in the bottom of the 6th.

    Santana with his 8th double and run scored. Kearns with an RBI single.

    Jayson Nix 2-3 as well with a beauty of a suicide squeeze at the plate to score Pronk.

    2-1 Tribe

    J.W. threw well tonight hopefully this hope with him be traded.

    He has to be able to bring in at least two mid level prospects but then again with Crapiro being part of this he might bring on a couple of low level A prospects.

    Acta playing musical pitchers as always.

    That was a sweet play by Gonzalez.

    Valbuena is playing third for the Clippers tonight and has gone yard.
    The Clippers trail the last place Braves,2-1 bottom of 8.

    The blowpen is looking good for the mistake on the lake tonight.
  • newarkcatholicfan
    In his 21 game for the Clippers Jared Goedert just blasted his 9th homerun of the season knocking in two to give him 19 rbi and put the Clippers up,3-2 in the bottom of the 8th.
    Clippers are still hitting.

    DIME A DOG NIGHT AS BROUGHT IN OVER 12,00 FANS AND IT IS THE BIGGEST CROWD EVER AT THE NEW BALL PARK. According to the guys in the booth.

    ^^^^This guy will get a call up to the Bigs real soon. Especially when Peralta is traded before the deadline.

    You have to have a taker if JP is to be traded.

    Yeah, guys like Peralta and Hafner are hard to trade.

    Peralta shouldnt be as big a problem. He is a guy who can in theory play 2 positions (we know better though) and always end up with decent looking numbers (again, we all know better:D).

    Hell...I'll take a recovering alcoholic and a bag of peanuts for him.

    Isn't J.P. the #2 RBI guy on this sad team?
    He seems to be producing better than most of his teammates.

    Wood does his job again

    Yeah, Hafner is a much bigger problem because of his contract. MoonPie could be dealt, but I would have to think that these other GMs are wise to his tomfoolery and shenanigans as a bad infielder.

    Wood keeps doing this and his ass is gone!!!
  • newarkcatholicfan
    Not with his contract.
  • Azubuike24
    Wood is a free agent so there isn't any reason a contender wouldn't take him on for 2 months if he keeps throwing well. The Tribe won't get much, but he's trade fodder. Hafner, no way, and Peralta, up in the air.

    Peralta is a slightly above average veteran major leaguer. He consistently hits .265 and drives in 80 runs a year. He consistently ranks in the upper half of defensive stats for his position...whether it is SS or 3B. While he may not cover as much ground as others, what he does cover is solidly fielded. In other words...while others get to more balls and make some spectacular plays...they also boot more balls that are easy plays. I suspect that JP is underappreciated here because he followed one of the best SS's of all time ...Omar Vizquel. While he is a good player, he's not the kind of player that teams want to pick up for a playoff run. That could change if someone has their everyday 3B go down with an injury. While it doesn't seem like it, Peralta is batting .299 with RISP.

    Let's get BR's thoughts on it, Hits! Ha Ha! I will put my vote in that I agree with you.
