Sounds like Matt LaPorta may be on his way up.

Thanks for giving me a little laugh after tonight's loss.

smh--pathetic

The Indians have lost six of eight, due primarily to poor starting pitching. Cleveland’s starters are 2-6 with a 9.52 ERA in the last eight games.

Hitting splits continue to widen. Appx. 271 against righties and appx. 214 against lefties. Can't win hitting 214 in this league.

I was watching Indians On Deck today and they did a feature on Justin Masterson's wife. She sells cookies out of their home...anyhow, I decided to check out the website and maybe order some. 17 dollars a dozen and 9 dollars shipping...wtf....lmao. She must have gotten her pricing outline from looking at the menus at the ballpark...

If her husband keeps getting rocked, they'll need the money.

Nice catch by Brantley. Seriously, fuck Grady Sizemore.. Brantley is doing it with the glove and bat, I'd keep him at CF.

yeah, I agree....but I have a feeling Brantley will end up in Left when Grady comes back for a week.

SMH. We're going to drop another series to another bad team.

Trivia question today 3000 hits, 300 CBA and 500 stolen bases. I guessed Willie Mays...just a bit outside on that guess. Just to spoil it for all...it was Paul Molitor. Would never have guessed it.

As for Mrs. Masterson selling her cookies....hopefully the kids never find out about that.

Saw on another forum that the Tribe hasn't beat a LH since May 3rd.

not surprising....glad they didn't need a right handed stick this offseason.

Also, nice to see that Hunter Pence is having a nice season so far...fml

This just in: Brantley's 12 game hitting streak is the longest since Trevor Crowe's September of 2010 effort with 13.

White Sox won again today so the Tribe need to find a way to pull this out.

Losing ground when playing bad teams is unacceptable.
