Tribe vs Cardinals (Series Thread)

• Footwedge

  The Indians roll into St Louis hoping that their league worst starting pitching staff somehow finds itself. Injuries have plagued the tribe, but not as it relates to the pitchers. Simply put, they stink.
  
  Only everyday players Cabrera, Choo, Kipnis, Hannahan, and Brantley have earned their keep. Of course the bullpen has been stellar as well.
  
  Time to dump Duncan and let LaPorta take his shot in left. And Santana needs to elevate his offensive numbers.
  
  Tonight Tomlin takes to the mound with his assortment of nothing, His ERA hovers far above the Ubaldo line. Facing the tribe is ole buddy Jake the Snake, a guy who lost about 79 playoff games for the tribe during his career.
  
  Any sighting of either McAllister or David Huff?

  As much as I want to like Santana....his batting average is garbage, not acceptable

  Carlos Beltran will get a chance this weekend to see if he made the right choice when he signed with the Cards.
  
  Grady Sizemore will not make an early return....his rehab was curtailed due to 'soreness'. Probably All Star break at the earliest.

  Even though laley was supposed to start this thread, I still like to read Footwedge comments. Besides agreeing with most of it, I think we should keep Duncan as a bench player. He is valuable as a team guy.

  Yeah, sore vaginas are atleast 30 days on the DL.

  You could always copy and paste them over here for us all to see.
• BR1986FB

  And...three straight hitters can't advance the runners from 1st & 2nd...bottom of the 5th
• BRF

  

  Oh ho! The Footwedge stays up.
  
  
  Just let it go, Crimson. It's all good. Tribe fans sticking together.
• BR1986FB

  Hopefully this isn't the kiss of death but Tomlin is pitching a nice game...
• BR1986FB

  White Sox losing 4-0 in the bottom of the 5th....
• BR1986FB

  Haha...Tomlin with a single. Runners on the corners with one out..
• BR1986FB

  And, of course, Choo K's....
• BR1986FB

  Tomlin has only thrown 65 pitches through 6 innings. Nice & efficient....
