Otero in to try to screw things up. 

8-6 and Miller time with one out in the 7th. 

He promptly gives up two doubles and we are now tied at 8. 

And now after 3 straight walks, the Tigers lead 9-8.

Just got home from work in time to see the 7th inning meltdown.

Yikes. Maybe the bats can bail them out.

Go Tribe

un-fucking-believable...and I sure hope the reason Miller’s pitching was so shitty tonight is due to him still being hurt, cause if it isn’t, we’re in deeeeep shit

Ramirez with another double, Lindor gets his 4th walk and Guyer is up with the bases loaded for the 3rd time tonight.  

He K's. One out. 

Kipnis up. 

Grounds into a dp. 

Sacks juiced with no outs, no runs.

Kipnis worthless, just like our bullpen...this team has zero confidence right now.

IMO, the most embarrassing loss of the season so far...unreal.

This bullpen is awful.

Heard a stat this morning that last year's bullpen had an ERA in the high 2's and this year it's also 6:00. Goes to show you how a pen can have drastic swings from year to year.

Need that guy who puts the videos to the "My Heart Will Go On" song to make us a montage of Bryan Shaw and Joe Smith. Speaking of Joe Smith, a quick Google search revealed that he is married to CBS sideline/baseline reporter and former Miss Teen Ohio Allie LaForce. Good for him.

This bullpen is awful.

most definitely, but this was equally as frustrating...

The Indians loaded the bases with no one out in the eighth against Daniel Stumpf, but Brandon Guyer struck out and Jason Kipnis hit into an inning-ending double play.

@ vball....standard procedure with the Tribe. If I had a nickel for every time the Tribe has loaded the bases (over the years) with no out and came out with nothing, I could retire. They seem to have that down pat. Constant bitch from me.

Can they hold on today with a five run lead in the 5th?

6-0 through seven. Hopefully Bauer can go the distance so the craptastic pen doesn't have to make an appearance.
