    My bad, Hits will clear it up....I thought it was you and him. Anyhow, I thought it was funny in our misery!

    until our offense shows a little consistency, i'd think a high school team was going to take two of three

    Actually....if I remember correctly, Hits was the only one who "dug into" my claim....and was the only one who supported me. Now...if I still had a memory, I could tell you what it was all about. LOL.

    Really?

    Even with some inconsistent offense the Indians are the best team in the MLB?
  • DeadliestWarrior34
    Choo crushed that ball. Too bad it was foul
  • devil1197
    Davies pulled already.
  • wes_mantooth
    crap...injured.

    one the worst starters in the league...we needed him to pitch a few innings.
  • devil1197
    Way to swing that bat Hafner.

    I hate when guys leave the bat on the shoulder for 3 straight strikes.
  • wes_mantooth
    hell of an at bat there....sigh
  • devil1197
    OC with a clutch 2 out, 2 run hit.
  • wes_mantooth
    lol..that was the ugliest half inning of baseball in the history of major league baseball

    One good year and their heads expand. Either way, taking two of 3 in one regular season series doesn't make you the better team.
  • BR1986FB
    Whew...lucky they got something there after Davies gets yanked.
  • wes_mantooth
    well, we will see what the tribe is made of now....till the all star break. I think I heard that 12 of their next 19 series are against winning teams.
  • hoops23
    Wes, the Tribe just had a 12 game stretch where they faced 7 of the top 20 era pitchers in the AL. We went 7-5 during that stretch.

    We're also very close to that "40 game" magic mark that people love to judge a team by. Baseball, more than most sports entails that you are, indeed, what your record is.

    Buck drills a single, welcome back.

    what is everyones opinion on Sizemore trade talk? Reghi and Roda was discussing how it is getting close to the time to make a decision on him. I guess he has a club option for next year.

    And.no, there is no actual rumors of him being traded....just radio talk.

    You don't trade him.

    Although Brantley looks like a stud this season.

    Kid is going to be a player.
  • OQB
    that a boy Brantley!

    Most overrated thing in sports. I would much rather watch what a team has done the past week to see how they are playing. Who is to say the teams in 3 series will still be over .500, or the teams who ARENT wont be over .500??

    I agree...I think.

    He is good when he is healthy, but he may be a tough one to resign after next year.
