How someone could tag from second on that play is amazing.

Lady luck is smiling on the Wahoos tonight.
Axford is going to get his first save opportunity.
Game is being blown wide open right now.

I'm so happy that Chris Perez isn't the guy who will be coming out for the bottom of the inning.

Jim Johnson leaves with an ERA of 54.00.
Hell of an off-season addition for the A's. No wonder Baltimore didn't want to pay him.

Ha when that announcer said, "That's no ball boy, he has a beard!" I just started rolling in my recliner, some funny shit. Good win for Cleveland considering how bad they've been with RISP tonight, but obviously knowing how to run on the bases helps as that one dude for Oakland really fucked up there on that deep shot there in the 8th
I feel ya, I can't get the Tigers here in BG either yet I'm only an hour awaybases_loaded;1599234 wrote:Yeah. And before says I should switch. No one can provide the channels I currently get or technology compared to the Hopper for what I'm paying now post the 1st year savings.

Tribe is going to pull this out, but man does Axford look like he has some Chris Perez in him as far as getting himself into trouble before closing the door.

162-0 here we come.
Tito should have stuck with Masterson and let him go out for the 8th. He only threw 92 pitches up to that point, and I hate to say but we should ride him because he'll be someone else's problem next season.
Bullpen was shakey, but can't nitpick too much with an opening day shutout.

Game note:
Morgan is first Tribe player since 2004 with a walk, sac bunt and sac fly in one game.

I love that we were able to replace one injury prone player (Bourne) with a player who has a near identical skill set (Morgan).
Roll Tribe!
Roll Tribe!

somebody tell me again why the Indians haven't locked up Masterson thru 2017 ?
Can't complain too much about a win!

On another board I saw someone joking about the Dolan's calling Masterson up and asking him if he would reconsider taking that offer he made them that they thought was too lucrative.somebody tell me again why the Indians haven't locked up Masterson thru 2017 ?
He looked like an ace last night. Never got in real trouble and was really efficient in 7 scoreless. Those kind of guys don't grow on trees, and they sure as hell aren't found at Dollar General when you are shopping for replacements.

I was thinking about this last night.
How many extra wins does everyone think having Tito around accounts for?
I can't help but think this roster would be 10-15 wins worse if we still had a Manny Acta type than Tito. It really is amazing the difference his presence seems to make.

Between Francona and a typical manager? Maybe 6-8 wins.IggyPride00;1599418 wrote:I was thinking about this last night.

For the sake of consistency (I said something to Iggy about it on the other thread): are you/we (as a collective OC fan base) going to harp on this every time he has a good start?HitsRus;1599352 wrote:somebody tell me again why the Indians haven't locked up Masterson thru 2017 ?
