Never thought I'd say it.

Monday when Pittsburgh played St. Louis, Gonzalez botched a completely routine ground ball that eventually led to the tying run scoring in the ninth inning in an extra-innings loss. We're talking the sort of play that most of us could at least scoop up without difficulty.

I can’t believe you can be a utility man and have no ability to actually field. But, here we are lol.

This offense is just ridiculous. I know it’s beating a dead horse at this point, but sheesh. I can’t beleive they went into the season with these guys (even if you had Kipnis and Lindor healthy).

Let it all out. 

I think most of us knew this had a REALLY good chance of happening.

This is all on ownership who for all intents and purposes slammed the window of opportunity shut. Dolan just doesn’t have the stones and/or the pocketbook to see this through. The team needed a tweak, not to be gutted.... or at least if you wanted to get rid of high priced talent that wasn’t producing,at least make an effort to replace it.

Today, Chris Antonetti gaveTerry Francona a golden parachute.... contract extension thru 2022. I would be surprised if either of them makes it to 2021. Francona will take the fall for this clusterf@&$.... and Antonetti is too good to put up with this for more than a year.

I hate to be so negative… You guys all know how big a Tribe fan I am.... but this is crap and I am calling bullshit.

Brad Miller is batting .182, that's 3rd best on the team. Go Brad!

I have warning track power.

Suddenly I have home run power.

Suddenly I have even more home run power . 

Uh-oh, ..........

Suddenly I have warning track power again, but I keep swinging like I have home run power.

Similar  to  Moroff and Staments, try this Tribe trivia for former LIGHT Hitting 2nd Basemen and Shortstops.

Career BA Over/Under .225?

Tom Veryzer

Actually, Kuiper carried a .271 career BA... but only 1 HR in his 12 year major league career.

I hope Kluber is not going to have a 2015 type season.

Fermin would have been over, right? At least I remember him being a back-up/platoon guy with the Pirates either before or after Cleveland and I vaguely recall him being good at hitting for average, but having no power.
