    It's early, but I'm really liking what I see from the Tribe.

    This team seems scrappy, and the offense and bullpen are LEGIT.

    IF the starting rotation can become consistent, the Tribe will be in contention for the AL Central.

    Pronk looks really good. He said before the season he was back on his lifting program and he was no longer worried about the shoulder injury, it looks like that may be true.

    Santana is just a stud. Nothing more needs said.

    Choo, while struggling, isn't anything to worry about. He started 3/19 last season. He'll be .300/24/88 with about 20 SB at the end of the season.

    When Grady comes back the Tribe will have a real formidable offense. Especially if Grady can stay healthy.

    I forgot to add that I love what Orlando Cabrera brings to this teams as well. Just a fundamentally sound player.

    Ive always said the offense can be top 10 in the MLB. Its the pitching that sucks. Right now, we have had 2 horrible starts and 2 great starts...and are 2-2. If the pitching is there, the Tribe will win. If it isnt, they will lose.

    The offense, for the most part, wont lose us games. They will be consistent throughout the year, sans injuries.

    Great game by the Tribe last night. First time in a long time I watched a game from start to finish. They seem to be getting timely hitting the last two games. They have a chance to be decent this year, but with KC looking good too it will be a tough division. The last few innings concerned me when they coudln't hit the pure power pitchers and the last 8 or so outs were K's. The most impressive thing I saw though was the amount of pitches they took and their ability to extend at bats, they just couldn't cash in against the relievers like they did against Beckett.

    Probably the only time I've actually liked seeing you put lolfail in a post. Screw the Red Sox. I hate them.

    Love Orlando Cabrera wearing the QB warm pouch out in the field

    Varitek with a dumbass play and it's 4-2.

    Druby rakin'

    Is Manning drunk? How can you NOT blame Veritec there? Little leaguers will make that play. Nobody with a brain would assume that Youklis didn't touch 3rd. And this guy has been in the league for what? 35 years or so?
  • Footwedge
    Interesting how the Red Sox were the overwhelming favorites to win the AL pennant before the season started. Their over/under was 99 wins...and the Yanks were 93. Gotta love baseball.

    What the fuck was that interview with Kate Wickam...were those 2 dudes kissing!!??? I just puked in my mouth!!!!
  • iclfan2
    Love seeing Druby with the jack. Indians offense has looked good even in the losses. Pitching is going to be the biggest issue it seems.
  • Mulva
    Pretty crazy that the Red Sox and Rays could start a combined 0-10 (if the bullpen holds up 2 more innings).
  • grodt
    LaPorta???? 1st jack of the season
  • BRF


    hmmmm.......let's see.......we have won 3 of 5 for .600. At this pace we will have 96 wins!!!!!

    WTG Tribe!
