No pinch hitter for Valbuena?

Must say it's remarkable we're just 7.5 out.

I really dislike DeRosa.

 

[taimaishu123]

LETS GOOOOOO!

WHO WANT SOME!!!! THATS WHAT A FIRST PLACE CONTENDING TEAM DOES AND THATS WHAT HAPPENS TO A LAST PLACE TEAM!!!!

I fell asleep early last night then woke up and checked the game on my phone.

I read off the 'scoring plays'....and as I scrolled down, I got quite the laugh out of it.

I really like this talk about shopping DeRosa. It obviously wouldn't be a "give up the season" move because Mark DeRosa just isn't thatimportant to this team.

If we can get a solid starter or reliever, I think that would benefit us much more than DeRosa has.

Speaking of DeRosa, Joel Sherman of the New York Post wonders if a deal involving him, Jamey Carroll, and J.J. Putz could be worked out between the Mets and Indians. He says Carroll is an Omar Minaya favorite.

We have ourselves a new leadoff hitter.

Love this kid.

I think Vizcaino is going to end up being a great addition.

Winning a game that Greinke starts is huge.

Raf was big time.

 

[briannnnn]

KLJ you will love this, I'm sure. Anything noteworthy about this prospect?

Meanwhile down on the farm, Double-A Trenton was victimized by a perfect game by Cleveland prospect Jeanmar Gomez. It was an 11:05 a.m. start, so maybe the Thunder bats were still asleep.

Anything noteworthy about this prospect?
Part of the Latin Trifecta.

He, Hector Rondon and Kelvin De La Cruz spell a fine future for the Indians' staff. They're all freshly 21 years old.

Gomez got called up to Akron about a month ago. 4-0, 0.31 ERA, 9 hits, 26 strikeouts and 1 walk in 29.0 innings.

In his career against the Indians, Phillips is hitting .343 (24-for-70) with four homers and 14 RBIs, including seven RBIs in last year's games.

i know, that pic's getting old.

y'all probably sweep us now.

I'd like to be heading down there sometime this weekend, but I won't be able to.

 

[kiddin like jason]

Lineup tonight: 2B Asdrubal Cabrera, CF Grady Sizemore, C Victor Martinez, RF Shin-Soo Choo, SS Jhonny Peralta, 3B Mark DeRosa, 1B Ryan Garko, LF BenFrancisco, RHP Anthony Reyes

Why would you move Jhonny back to short? Why? Why?

Why?

Some form of permanence would be great.

Put DeRosa in left. Christ.

 

[wildkycat]

Rick Vaughn is pitching. F Grady.

 

[kiddin like jason]

Rick Vaughn is pitching.

I figured you would be there.

 

[jdcurt2]

Got a question... How is Reyes in the big leagues? I know we didnt capitalize on him tonight but any other team would have put up about ten on him. Is therenobody in the system better?

I've haven't hated one of my teams like I do this one in a while.

It seems like the Indians are the only team involved in these monumental come from behind wins.

 

[belle155]

that was the first game i watched all year. guys actin like they won the world series out there

 

[kiddin like jason]

I can't believe I missed last night's game. I'm out of town.

 

[kiddin like jason]

All kinds of movement:

Crowe up, LaPorta down.

Hafner should be back in the next few days.

Grady may be headed to the DL.

Jackson starting tonight.

 

[kiddin like jason]

I finally believe in God: Dellucci DFA.

Perez back up in his place.
