This team looks like they can get into the playoffs. Kyrie is only going to get better and Scott is a good coach. They got it going in the right direction.

They arent going anywhere. They had a very favorable schedule to start the season. 0-5 against teams .500 or better. There is a real possibility they lose 10 out of the next 11.

To learn that he's really not Exhausto and that's not his given name is one of the most depressing things I've ever gone through. My life is now an empty shell of what it once was. It's a given all Dominicans are 3 to 6 years older than what is stated, but not even his name. Crap.

That was the worst revelation, by far.


It is unforgivable....he must be bagged.

I'm not completely sure. they played them all close except Portland...(OT loss at Indy...close losses at Lakers and Jazz and they were all on the road too, not sure who the others were...I think they'll win at least 3 of the next 11 )

Roberto freakin Heredia, where's the fun in that name?? We need to put Julio Franco on the case. He was getting major league hits when he was 62 years old.

cannon, think we're 8 games in and they have 2 wins!! Not sure if any wins in the next 3 (at Orlando, Dallas home, at Miami next 3), so we likely split it right down the middle with 2 out of 11. Came close to that 3rd last night but oh well ( I was expecting the 3rd to come against NJ at home last Friday).

They got it...Dallas not Orlando but it counts!! Now the game is seeing if they can get first rounders for Sessions (Lakers) and Varejao (gotta think he's very popular right now, having a great year). And a bag of steaming poo for Jamison.

I do hope you're right however, I want lots more ping pong balls next off season...more good players in next year's draft.

So the Indians starting rotation now contains a guy named Roberto Heredia. Will his pitch count go down?? Will we find out Ubaldo Jimenez' actual name is Fausto Carmona??

In the end, man did what he had to do I guess. Also in the end, Exhausto had one great year, one good year and stunk his other 4 years so far with the Cleveland Indians. Roberto Exhausto Fausto Heredia Carmona. Who cares. I hope he is good this year as it's another one wearing the cleveland laundary. And if he stinks again, it'll be his last. We've just signed 37 other 17 year old Dominicans who are actually 21 and maybe 2 of them will become good. MLB is all it is. that's how business is done.

So true.



Though the name game does get confusing.

I'm very upset we can't use Exhausto anymore.

Look at this guy we just traded for clyde....he makes Exhausto look like Bob Feller...


Slowey split last season between the Twins and Triple-A Rochester. He went 0-8 with a 6.67 ERA in the majors and spent time on the disabled list.

He made eight starts and six relief appearances, and the Twins went 0-14 in those games. According to STATS LLC, Slowey became the first major league pitcher to make at least eight starts and lose them all since Lou Sleater of the St. Louis Browns in 1951.
