Meaningless solo homerun for Hafner. He's batting almost .300 with an OBP over .430 with bases empty. .131 and .253 with RISP.

A guy executes a suicide squeeze to win the game and he's shipped out!.....for a .211 hitter! Geez, talk about going from the top of the world to the basement with a bullet.
Well...baseball is a business....and definitely, we've been getting the business.
I have to admit I'm incredulous....that we gave up a pitching prospect so that we could 'upgrade' our 5th outfielder with a guy who has no power and can't hit .220.:mad:
Seriously...who thinks this stuff up? Do you get up in the morning, look at this team and say to yourself "I need to upgrade left field...I think I'll get a better 5th outfielder". WTF.

And connoisseurs only believe that because it makes them feel special about themselves when they know what they do is wrong.BRF;1234079 wrote:Ketchup on a hot dog is a big "no no" among the "connoisseurs"!
And I was thinking how dumb it is to actually expect people to show up to the game for a boiled chicken and scrapple dog for a dollar!

My confidence level is pretty high for Masterson and Jimenez, so-so for Tomlin, and not at all for Lowe--what is he now, 1-6 with close to a 9.00 era over the last 7 games? Time to cut bait with him, and either acquire or bring up another arm.

The Plain Dealers' Dennis Manoloff says that Damon & Lowe could attract interest on the trade market. Let's hope!

On a more seriously note I think that fastball that hit Hafner in the face 6 years ago more than likely ruined his career. He was never the same since

Honestly I don't think he took steroids. He was always a big powerful dude. His hand eye coronation isn't going to change because of steroids and he still has very good power despite having a glass shoulder

I honestly don't see a big difference in his size from 6 years ago but that's just me. I don't think we will ever know

Tribe are jumping all over verlanders first pitch fastball. Choo missed a hr by 2 feet and kipnis and Brantley both hit there's to the warning track. But a nice job bouncing back and getting the run back

Tied at 3. Lopez on 1st, 0 out. Almost feel like we gotta take the lead here with all the momentum and let the pen finish it off.

Be nice to tack on here. This is a situation for a bunt, where I actually agree. Too bad Pronk would have no clue.
