....I like moving Carrera to leadoff for a change. But cant say Im optimistic about scoring runs. Masterson will have to throw a shutout.
Whoa.....that lineup would strike fear into anyone!

But the problem isn't health... His velocity is there. It just looks like he's not hitting his spots right now.
Antonetti said they wouldn't have made the trade if Jiminez wasn't completely healthy.

Eh....he is throwing 91-93 consistently....not the 96 or higher like he did last year. Even tom hamilton said that.

The games I've watched, he's hit upper 90's a few times...
I don't think it's health, I think there is something wrong with his mechanics... Acta said his delivery has looked off yesterday in his pregame presser.
And lost velocity isn't going to misplace his pitches that badly.

Fukudome has been one of the most consistent players for the Tribe since he has came over. Slightly impressed with him.

They go as Asdrubal goes really. And he hasn't been hitting. Another runner left in scoring position.

If Laporta doesnt get a run in here, can we send him back to AAA on the spot?
