  1. Nice pickups by the Tribe.
  2. Why do we still have Kelly?
  3. You have been consistent in your assessment of this being a .500 team. I agree, but after the last 2 seasons, I am enjoying it. The calendar is about to turn to August and we are playing meaningful games.
  4. Pot is big in Seattle I guess.
  5. after the Yankees stop breathing, I would put 2 bullets in their head to make sure that they are dead.
  6. Put speedy guys up after Ortiz? That would negate their speed and ability to manufacture runs when they get on base. Ortiz's walks would skyrocket because it would take 3 hits to score him. Ortiz hitting leadoff would hurt run production, imo.
  7. But they are better off in front of your power hitters than right behind you power hitters.
  8. No humidity in Anaheim -- good for Wright tomorrow.
  9. Three deep starts in a row would be very helpful to cover for our decimated bullpen until DD can get it some help.
  10. OMG! But what about the future. We can't sacrifie the future. Just being sarcastic, and it is not directed at you. I have been beating this drum to all those who can't bear with parting with prospects. Good pitching is not going to fall into our laps from the sky. And we have a real lack of quality arms in our organization, so they will need to come from the outside. Our payroll is already pretty high, so it is doubtful that we can add another $200 million FA (who everyone seems to hate, BTW). The only avenue left to acquire quality pitching is to trade in some prospect chips if we want to have a playoff team before 2021.
  11. First Trout has to move to second base. LOL!
  12. The west coast travel almost always brings with it a lull in the offense. From what I have read, it is the second day that is the worst. There is no scientific explanation for it. Luckily, we had a really good pitching performance. Tonight, hopefully the offense will get back in sync.
  13. What did they do?
  14. Great start from Porcello. 17 innings of 2 run ball from our starters the last 2 nights. That is fantastic.
  15. I would only put Altuve ahead of him. Murphy is barely adequate defensively. Cano has slipped defensively. And except for power, Pedey is a better player than Kinsler.
  16. Due in part to the guys in front of him getting on base so often. I really can't find fault with Pedey's game on either side of the ball this season.
  17. You definitely don't want fast guys batting behind slow guys under any circumstances. That would just negate their speed.
