Your original post never said leading by two.

Stop trying to spin it.

Who else expects Kerry Wood to blow this game?

If he does, Choo will kill him, book it.

Bruce started it off bad swinging at that first pitch. It is not the time for a homer, just a baserunner. Against that shift he just needs to plink one of those outside pitches to LF. When Bruce goes to the opposite field, he and the Reds are tough, so long as Phillips and Gomes are also going the other way.

First off, every team doesn't have that type of talented individuals, especially in the 2 and 3 hole.

Secondly, you're saying you wouldn't bet it being the Indians as if they've never had great players? I'm sure we both know that's not true. Great players have come through this organization for quite some time. Problem is, we don't ever keep them :)

Every team has 2 hitters as talented as Choo and Santana..give me a break. 90% of the baseball world doesn't even know who Santana is. I know I didn't before this series.

I'm not saying the Indians have never had great players, don't put words in my mouth.

If he does, we'll just count that as time served for the Korean military that he still owes.

Perfect pitch to get Stubbs with two strikes, cutter right on the outside edge - good sharp, short break!

Wood slams the door in the 9th to save the game for the Tribe.

5-3 final.

No, every team doesn't have talented players like Choo and Santana, if they did Choo and Santana wouldn't be heralded players. And you honestly think 90% of the baseball world doesn't know who the #1 hitting prospect in the minors was? Seriously?

I'm willing to bet 90% did know who Santana was, if they didn't, they don't follow baseball.

ESPN did a story on him for fantasy value the day he was called up. Basically said to pick him up because he will be one of the best catchers THE DAY HE'S CALLED UP.

Haha at somebody claiming that the Indians someday might have the best 2 and 3 hole hitters in the league. Please. Choo is great, I love him as a player and Santana has a bright future... but best in the league?

Again, miller never said they WOULD BE, he's just claiming that they COULD be.

You guy are either not understanding him, or putting words in his mouth.

I am not going to agree and say 90% don't know who Santana is, but I think he is on the right track. The Indians are rarely on national tv and not all baseball fans follow who the hot up and coming players are. Heck I was able to snag Choo late in my fantasy draft this year. It wasn't because his stats weren't good last year, it was because he doesn't get any publicity.

WOW

Delusional.

If you really think virtually every team doesn't have two players as good and with as much potential as freakin Choo and Santana, you need to step outside your Cleveland Indians box.

And I COULD be the President of the United States eventually...just becuase I COULD be doesn't mean it will happen or even have a chance of happening.

If in 5 years Choo and Santana are the best 2, 3 hitters in the MLB, I will cut my fucking balls off.

Who do the Pirates have as good as Choo and Santana?

Who do the A's have?

Who do the Royals have?

Who do the Mariners have?

Baltimore? Chi-Sox? Cubs?

I'm talking OF'ers and Catchers..

Santana is already a top 3 or 4 catcher in the MLB.

Choo is definitely one of the top outfielders in the game.

No, you couldn't be the president. So that comparison holds no water.
