Tribe hosting the Rays

• Mulva

  

  Perez left for the all-star break a little early.
  
  Dumb gamble by Brantley in that situation.
• BR1986FB

  Perez can eat a dick. If he gets booed he'd better not bitch about the "fans." Bad with the good, asshole.
• chippy10

  fuck perez he sucks ass..... vinny is the only guy i trust...
• wes_mantooth

  

  there is the Perez that we all know and love. I was worried he had gone away for good.
• Footwedge

  Acta lost this game in the 6th.

  eh, Jose Mesa was better than that....and I never trusted him. That worked out in the world series.

  I trusted JoBo to blow every save, does that count?

  No "chill the fuck out" for me. Fucker was dead to me when he started railing on the fans the first time. If he gets booed, it's deserving. He'd better not whine about the "sad fan base." You perform like shit and you get what you get, booed. Quicker they get rid of the douche, the better in my eyes.

  lol he was my fav. I always expected him to fail, so when he actually got a save.....it was like we won the world series..lol

  Sweet. Love a chance to get santana and his .218 average a shot
• Mulva

  

  Wow. That looked like strike 3.
• wes_mantooth

  

  Last year, Santana hits that out of the park...that pitch was down the middle belt high
• Mulva

  

  Damn. I was ready to bust out the Casey Clutchman nickname.
  
  I'll take 44-41 at the all-star break.
• KR1245

  

  I was always a big fan of Wickman, I dont think the man ever recorded a 1-2-3 9th
• BRF

  

  Great job by our two All-Stars today. I am trying to stay positive about Perez, though. He just better keep his mouth shut this time and lay off the tweeting.
  
  Anybody remember off hand what our record was last year at the break?

  We were 47-40 on this date last year. Not sure if that was the all-star break or not.
  
  We've been consistently average this year though, which is about right. Last year was 2 months of way better than they actually were, followed by 4 months of way worse.

  right on....we are a .500 team talentwise as it stands. The FO didn't make any splash in free agency and I doubt they do anything by the deadline.

  Not that I wouldn't like to see them make a move but what do we have, besides every day young players (Kipnis, Chisenhall, young pitchers) and the stud "5 tool" SS down in the minors, as trade bait?

  Nothing.
  
  Eating big salaries is all they can do....and we all know that won't happen.

  They gutted what little the farm system had for Ubaldo last year.
  
  It is a sad state of affairs that our minor league system is so devoid of prospects considering the amount of guys we've traded away over the past 5 years. We should be overflowing with prospects, and instead are completely barren.

  That was my point. We have nothing.

  Would've had a RH bat and a prospect had they gone after Pence last year.
