                                Game time at 8:10 with Masterson vs. Slowey (and I hope that's how he pitches) in the Tribe quest to go over .500!

                                Could be a tuff lineup for Masterson. He has struggled against lefthanded hitters. They have 2 of the best.

                                I saw some of it Opening Day against the Red Sox looks pretty sweet. You can see these funky little bump outs along the walls in the seating area. Not site what that is all about

                                Rondon is getting hammered again as the Clpippers are down, 6-0 with Indiy still hitting in the fourth.
Make it 7-0 as Indy just hit their third homer in the inning.

                                Aight, decent start.  Masterson gets out of it and Hafner pounds one, 1-1.

                                So far so good after one. Gotta keep the Twins bats in check or it could get ugly.

                                If Masterson gives up 4 ER or less today itll be a successful day for him. I dont really think he matches up well with the Twins (unlike a guy like Fausto)

Except maybe for that hard hit ball.

                                But he had a nice defensive play earlier in the game. Don't get such a hard on for Santana, let him develop a little more.

                        I dont want him to but inserted yet. Thats why I said TILL he is ready. I know Marson made a nice stop and is a pretty good defensive guy. But his hitting is beyond atrocious.THE4RINGZ wrote: But he had a nice defensive play earlier in the game. Don't get such a hard on for Santana, let him develop a little more.

                                The 2nd inning escape by Masterson was brought to you by the good folks at Vanedlay Industries.

                                Agreed.
Just getting tired of all the Santana talk. They are playing decent ball without him as long as the starting pitching holds up. I would rather have him (Santana )come up after that drops off and they need a spark to try to make a run later in the season.

                                ^^^Id rather have Santana not come until a September call up. The guys we have rushed seem to struggle mightily. The guys who we dont rush (minus Peralta) seem to be solid.

                                Masterson sure puts a lot of guys on base, but I love that he is a strike out guy.
