I hate Casey Kothman more and more with each AB. His error in the field isnt helping either, since thats why we signed him.

small golf clap to the indians offense for finally breaking through with more than 4 runs in a game...the fact that the pitching staff has given up 10 is inconsequential

Paid attendance 9,072, so they didn't set the "official" record low.

I didn't even know that the game started early. Oh well, glad now that I didn't know. Only good thing for me was the Duncan home run.

So, ts, I have noticed your new location. Welcome to Wayne County, where several OC all-stars reside.

7-22 in spring training...1-4 in the regular season. Manny loves him some consistancy.

I would have liked to have been a fly on the wall, while they were discussing potential free agents and putting the lineup together. I wonder what the thought process was....how this was gonna work?

Frankly, the way it seems to be looking for Kotchman, we might have well as just stayed with LaPorta.


What if....we had actually spent some money on a right handed power hitter?

Ken Rosenthal is reporting that the Tribe is close to signing Johnny Damon. I'll be honest, I'm not sure I get that. He'd most likely replace one of the few right-handed bats we have in the lineup (Duncan) without providing much power. Guess we'll see if it comes through.

Johnny Damon's contract will have an out clause that'll allow him to leave as soon as Grady returns?

LOLFUCK?

Watch this dude fucking tear it up and leave as soon as DL Sizemore returns... SMFH.

I will be going to way more games if the Tribe sign Damon. My wife would leave me in a millisecond for that guy. She just loves him.


So I was watching the Twins/Angels last night. The guy we couldn't get or didn't want, The Hammer Josh Willingham, is just crushing the ball for the Twins. Already has 2 bombs and is inches away from having 4. People forget he did all his damage in not hitter friendly ball parks. The old Sun Life/Pro Player in Miami, new Nationals stadium and he hit 26 bombs in Oakland last year which is where balls go to die. He will probably hit 30+ in Minnesota this year.

Can Duncan play first? At least then Kotchmans ass would be on the bench.

They FINALLY address the Tribe's biggest need. Rumor has it they are bringing in Johnny Damon to take over for Jack Hannahan at 3rd base. The Tribe haven't have a stud left-handed throwing 3rd basemen since the glory days of Ben Broussard.

Lol. Damon would perfect the one bounces to 1B...but not on purpose.

I love how we really NEED right handed hitters, but yet they want to continue to go sign left handed "hitters".


SMFH!!

It's a long throw damnit! Maybe the pitcher could be the cutoff/relay guy.
