  LOL, Anybody watching the CLC right now?
  
  The Bostonian (a caller from Boston who rambles on and on) is calling Hafner a bum and going off about Westbrook and Lee because they played for Cleveland lol...
  
  SMH.

  But like I said earlier...you go back to our great teams of the 90's and we didn't have that #1 guy....we had a bunch of 2 and 3 guys but it just worked and I see our staff this year the same way.

  
  It was also their downfall in the 90's when they got to the playoffs.

  Damn what a game for me to miss. Great offensive outburst that was sorely needed after all that tough pitching we'd faced. Sounds like everyone got in on the hit parade. While the news of Grady to the DL sucks at least we do have a guy like Brantley that can smoothly take his spot. Also, can we agree that Kearns is done and when Grady comes back we keep Buck and let Kearns go? I like the guy but he's just not cutting it anymore.
  
  Josh Tomlin just continues to go out and shut people down. It really is very impressive what he's been able to do so far this season.

  The Bostonian is Mantooth's favorite caller on WKNR.

  Are you serious? The one game I decide to go to sleep we score 19 runs. 19 runs! Maybe I shouldn't watch more often.

  These numbers show Tomlin is your best pitcher right now. Sure Masterson is having a good season, but he has been a bit lucky too. If he keeps allowing opposition to hit .256 against him he wont finish in top 15 in ERA.

  T-Bone does have the magic touch. He should be all time thread starter.
  
  The tribe benefited from some truely horrendous pitching last night. We got some timely hits and guys had some really good at bats too. Keep it up!
• JerseyBuck

  

  Pointless but interesting stat: Indians scored more yesterday than the Browns scored in first 10 games last season.
• royal_k

  

  19 points were more than the Browns scored in 75% of their games.
• Commander of Awesome

  

  19 pwns for the indians last night. They pwned Davies so hard he got sent to AAA today, lolfail.

  Ahh, thanks for the clarification. I just saw a headline that Royals pitcher sent to minors after shelling. Figured it was Davies.

  Friggin hacks with their warning track power need to hit the weight room.

  Congrats to Manny. A nice honor for him. I wonder how many AS we will have in the game? We dont have many "studs" in terms of numbers...Id guess we will have pitchers, and maybe no-one else?
  
  Perez?
  Masterson?
  Tomlin?
  Hafner?
  Asdrubal (really only has a shot if his RBI numbers keep up, imo, which is unlikely)

  Assistant manager, not THE manager of the AL. That honor goes to the AL world series coach from the previous season.

  I think Hafner has a shot.

  Reghi is calm with him but Roda loses his mind. Bostonian really gets under Roda's skin.

  Drennen doesn't care for him either.

  Ugggghhh....Drennan. Don't get me started on him. It's personal.

  I find 850 almost unlistenable. I can't stand the really big show anymore. I stopped listening over a year ago.
