He was part of the package that came over from the Yanks for Nettles. The early 70s were unbelievable building the Yankee late 70s dynasty.

You're right..remember.



But didn't Detroit win it all in like '86?

yes, sometime in the mid 80s....I think '84 maybe. Tribe win um tonight. Bat able to pitch on 2 days rest with great effectiveness, unfortunately he couldn't get that last out in the 8th so another no decision. Bullpen dominates again. 16 and a third shutout this homestand. Santana gets the big hit again. LaPorta gets a lucky bloop hit to win it. He still stinks bad.

Chew hit leadoff tonight and Urns stellar season comes to an end as this Urn has been designated for assignment. (center and right field tonight was the orient express.)

It was ,huh? I just don't see LaPorta getting much better than he is now.I couldn't believe C-Pz had a 1,2,3.

Saw the one about Urns.








yay!!!!

[horseofcourse]

Here comes the season. Only 2 back with 6 in Chicago and Detroit. 3-3 at least is mandatory. We get Verlander for one of them I think so that leaves only 2 other games we can lose. Colt played very well in the first fake football game of the season.

[clyde]

Hope the Tribe does well.

[horseofcourse]

well, in O-Bald-Os 3 starts we've scored 7, 10, and 7 runs...that is a smorgasbgord of runs for this team. We're 1-2 in those 3 games. He's been an unmitigated disaster. Couldn't even make it though 5 tonight. Great, he pitches great 1 of every 3 starts. That's a bad pitcher.

[clyde]

Oh we only gave up 2 of MLB's top 50 prospects...plus 2 other maybe's.



But what we got is a proven fifth starter ,who looks like he is overrated.

Oh my God.

We got hosed.

[horseofcourse]

This puts it into even better perspective...he's made 3 more starts than Carlos Carrasco and has less quality starts....not Masterson or Tomlin...CARLOS FREAKING CARRASCO!! Exhausto has as many quality starts as Obaldo in less starts due to his DL time. HE DOES NOT HAVE MORE QUALITY STARTS THAN FREAKING EXHAUSTO STARTING MORE GAMES!!

So with the way Huff has pitched since his call up, clyde, we got our number 6 starter for White and Pomeranz. That's awesome.

(we can grab 3rd place tonight!)

Thank you ,HC...I feel so much bettah.




And don't forget we got Fucl<U , who equals Urns and Buckless added together.


Now that's awethome!!














Oh my God.

What are we saying!?




































thudage!!

I guess our number 3 starter is better than our number 6 starter!!! Who knew!!

Exhausto has turned it around. Team 5-2 in his last 7 starts, one of the losses to Verlander and he battled him pitch for pitch.

[clyde]

[horseofcourse]

Just to cheer you up clyde--Drew Pomeranz went 6 and a third no hit innings in his first AA start in the colorado system last night pitching 7 shutout and 78 pitches!!

[clyde]

But we got a proven hack for him!

[horseofcourse]

Our number 6 starter got to see a true front line starter without his good stuff battle through 6 quality innings and getting to the bullpen horses for the win (although Pastrami darn near blew it). C Perez appears to be completely out of his slump. The orient express outfield has gone 9 for 19 the last two games. Fucl>U 3 for 4 with the game changing triple in the 6th to give us the lead. God I miss Urns!! We only struck out 13 times too, kept it down!!

(we get two non Verlander games now...better at least split them...then our number 6 starter gets Verlander!!)

Oh my God.

Do you know they are last in the AL for number of strikeouts?Wuffies don't whiff that much.

Thank God for Masterson...he could have 15 wins and more.

(we get two non Verlander games now.....

!!

....better at least split them.....


Bet they take them both.


...then our number 6 starter gets Verlander!!)

blech!!!!

[horseofcourse]

Well actually...

WHIFFLE BALL: Indians’ batters lead the American League in strikeouts with 938.

[slotdirt]

Three non-Verlander games. JV isn't pitching until Monday.

Detroit is the worst managed team in baseball. I'm pretty sure Leyland has personally lost at least six-eight games this year.
