What are the Tigers? Take away the Indians record versus them and they are shit also. Hell, we are a BETTER team than the Tigers if you take out the head-to-head.Glory Days;1501815 wrote:because the Royals are over .500? They also won the season series versus the Tigers. They mentioned the other day the only reason the Indians are above .500 is because of they beat up on the white sox. Indians are 15-2 against the white sox and 66-66 versus the rest of the MLB. Pathetic.

He is hurt. He can only play 1 day at a time (or pinch-hit).Ironman92;1501826 wrote:Why no Raburn?

Yeah, I was going to say I bet most teams with a winning record have a similar stat. I know the royals are good they just seems to have our number.Laley23;1501829 wrote:What are the Tigers?

Something with his heel. I think it flares up when he plays. He has only been a DH, and when he has gotten on base after the 5th (sans a HR), he has been pinch-run for.Ironman92;1501874 wrote:What kind of injury is that?

^^^yep... achilles tendon inflammation. In Francona's scheme of things you also had a RH pitcher going last nite, so he was packing the lineup with lefties.
Danny Duffy is a late scratch for the game today, so the Royals will be sending Yorlando Ventura (September callup) against Kluber tonite. Need to win this one.

Yep. Hopefully he is nervous as hell and isnt close to the strike zone at times. Then maybe those 2 hits can at least produce about 4 runs...vball10set;1502050 wrote:You beat me to it..he'll prolly throw a two hitter against us.

This guy throws 99 and is a starter??? Fucking Christ. Also, Zimmer is their #1 pitching prospect, this guy is #2. Again...fucking Christ.

Cabrera has been disappointing on all fronts this season--he's been horrific.

Ugh. Kluber cant throw strikes at all, then when he does, they are grooved fastballs.

Geez Cabrerra...just about the time you start liking this team, you start hating this team. Can they play a big game without choking? They play these games soooo tight. KC is running all over the yard and we play base to base.

Buttholes starting to pucker. They can't touch this guy.
Playing so tight. This reminds me of all the Tigers games so far this year.
This is when we need a big bopper who can run into one and put a 2 or a 3 spot on the board with 1 swing.

Yeah. Def choking per usual. It is amazing that they are this bad against teams over .500.

You can just see how tight they are. They dont look like they are having any fun. Yelling at themselves for outs and foul balls etc.
Meanwhile, KC is running all over the yard with steals, doubles, triples and pointing to the dugout. Laughing, having fun with each other.
The teams are not even close to the same, mentally, right now.

Brantley has been so clutch for us all year. Gets the Tribe on the board with a 3-2, 2 out single to score Swisher.
Now 3-1 KC, Tribe still batting with runners on the corners in the 6th.

Well, we got the bases loaded with the guy you want up (Raburn). But, he missed his pitch at 1-1 and hit it deep but foul. Then proceeded to work the count full before striking out on ball 4.
