I find it funny that the one guy that wanted to be an Indian....may have put the final nail in the coffin. Kind of a big "fuck you" to the tribes front office.

Glory Days caught me posting my displeasure on the old thread! I clicked on the Royals thread. That's how ticked I was and still am. As an old guy, I just had that bad feeling about Ubaldo coming out "great guns", knowing that that usually doesn't last and wondering when the wheels fall off. Victor.

Ubaldo has pitched a GREAT game today. 2 hits allowed and around 7 or 8 K's so far in 7 innings.

One mistake was a 3run blast to Victor. Tribes offense is flat out terrible. We know that, and it's not going to change in he last month. That's why we will not make anymore noise this season.

He has been great....but in the end...3 runs in 7 innings is not good enough. Is that fair, probably not....but this was a must win game.

LOL. Come on now Wes, you can't honestly believe that.

3 runs in 7 innings is a great start, it's not his fault the offense sucks ass. If you're talking a must win game, 3 runs or less is always great. Scoring 1 run is not.

Joe Smith comes in and gives up a leadoff double. SMH.

3 runs in 7 innings is not a great start. It sucks cuz he was dominant other than that huge mistake to victor.

Sadly though, he could have had a great start giving up one run and still lost....this offense is a god damn joke.

We'll just disagree on that. 3 runs in 7 innings on 2 hits is a great start against this offense.

However, Joe Smith has the bases loaded with 1 out and Miggy coming up.

Fork, meet Tribe.

LOL. Of course he hits a DP ball, the bat flies out and Donalds throw is off to 1B allowing MIGGY of all people to beat the throw.

Now 4-1.

This would be a great day for Papa douchmonger to blow his first save. Of course, we gotta get Fister out the damn game first. He has been brilliant today.

Well, if it wasn't official before today I'd say that does it. Interesting to see where they go from here. There are still a LOT of holes to fill on this team.

http://scores.espn.go.com/mlb/boxscore?gameId=310905105&teams=detroit-tigers-vs-cleveland-indians

Tigers traded some garbage for Fister. Check out his 3.17 ERA. The tribe traded Pomeranz and White for Jiminez...and his 5.27 ERA. Fister makes $436,500 per year and Jiminez makes 2.8 million.
:laugh:
Good luck to the Tigers....I hope they win the whole damn thing.

They didnt give up as much, but from everything I hear they gave up a big time prospect in Chance Ruffin. This is from the news guys in Toledo and the Mud Hens organization. As I said, not nearly the prospect that Pomeranz is, but still a pretty big prospect.

Glad to see that Fister got his career high in strikeouts against our powerful lineup. Hey Grady....fuck you....take that nine million dollar option and go fuck yourself with it.

For the young Indians fans:

This could actually be the theme song for them this year since they all like to strikeout lol

For you older Indians fans:
