Same way I felt,HC.



I didn't think, as events went on,the Tribe could survive the playoff race although injuries have not helped.Trying to act like a Boston or New York and grabbing a " difference maker" for whom they would have to empty out the farm system made no sense.They were poised, like you said, to make a splash in '12/'13 ( and/ or).

They can't even do wrong right...if you know what I mean.

Now, again thanks to the braindust, we have to be more forward hoping.

Exhausto is earning his name tonight.



Should he go on in order to preserve an 18 hitter,he will have thrown at this rate......256.5 pitches.

Did his job. not great, but 2 runs in 6 is fine. If Ubaldo had pitched all his games like Exhausto since the trade, they'd be 4-0 in his starts and not 1-3. cleveland sporty fans thought I was completely insane when I said he wasn't as good as Exhausto.

7 quality starts in his last 9 games. His two non quality starts are zero runs in 2 innings and the injury and 4 runs in 7.1 innings. If Ubaldo had pitched every game like Exhausto's WORST game in the last two months we'd be 4-0 in those games.

He ain't even close to Exhausto, although his first 2 innings tonight were very tiring--he did redeem himself.


The Tribe's line up looks like micro fracturing.

Awful!

We might also add a closer to that shopping list.




Fork time.

You gotta look at the bright side clyde, Perez hit two batters, walked a guy and committed an error and still only gave up one run!!

Jimenez goes Friday, it's gonna be ok!! We'll score 8 or 9 that game no matter who's batting. We'll have about a 25 percent chance to win it.
