  FLIP THE FUCKING BALL

  4 errors now. Pitching bailing out the defense.

  The last two months it seems like he averages an error a game--it's been tough to watch.
• Glory Days

  

  As for errors/fielding:
  
  Chisenhall .951
  Stubbs .958
  Kipnis .980
  Cabrera .981
  Bourn .987
  Swisher .988
  Santana .994
  
  Overall, Cleveland is 21st in fielding percentage, with only the Pirates and Dodgers being worse with a winning record.
• Laley23

  

  Our OF is stellar. Infield leaves a TON to be desired. They make errors on routine plays. I dont mind the error on an attempted great play if you can catch a liner right at you. But the Indians seem to make errors on both.
  
  As for Stubbs...best day ever? 3 walks and a possible GW HR? lol
• TBone14

  

  Big knock Stubbs! Let's close this bitch out.
• Laley23

  

  Huge hustle by Bourn pays off on the base knock (insurance) run from Swisher. Gives Perez wiggle room when he allows a 1 out double or leadoff walk lol

  Indians head into the most important stretch of games against the Braves and Tigers. The Athletics go to Detroit for a 4 game series, so I am think the Indians will be in the WC spot heading into their series with the Tigers.
• Con_Alma

  Good win. If Baltimore held on, the Indians would be 1 1/2 games out of the wildcard.

  Nice win today.

  Reported for MT (moronic trolling), now please leave.

  Another series win. Not pretty but just doing enough to get it done. Another off day tomorrow before the biggest 6 games of the year. 3 at Atlanta and 3 at Detroit. 3-3 or better is fine with me to be honest. I will start the Braves thread tomorrow at work.
• BRF

  

  Good job, T-Bone!

  Just think if they had a little more consistency...sheesh!
  
  According to Baseball Prospectus, the Indians have a 28% chance of making the playoffs right now.

  ...

  ...been saying all along they were a streaky team with no consistency.
• Laley23

  

  Why would anyone post the Tigers magic number (and not even have the amount of games right) on an Indians thread?? That is just retarded. I honestly am not sure if Wally meant that, or if he meant it to be in the MLB thread...so random for someone who doesnt usually troll.
• Wally

  Was off my meds for a couple hours….sort of out of character for me.

  Tigers magic number is 27, they are 24 games over .500. Both teams have 32 games left, I think. Who are Indians fans rooting for in the upcoming Tigers/A's series, since they need the A's to lose to get in the wild card, but need the Tigers to lose to get he division???????

  The tribe isn't talented enough to over take Detroit so they need to catch the A's.

  Ive been cheering against the As, Os, Texas, TB, Boston, etc since the ASG. Couldnt give a shit about what Detroit does. We have been playing for the WC for a long time now. I was hoping for a 2-2 split in the last series cause it was great for the WC, not because it would help catch the Tigers.
