  1. But then they are named after former Cleveland reliever and noted bigot John Rocker!!
  2. I’m surprised no Jarren Duran. In a 60 game season where every win is magnified, a pinch running stolen base specialist might have an actual impact. Or are there future control/service time factors I’m not thinking about?
  3. Non-Colon division..,
  4. I had no idea the Giants’ uniforms had a B cup...
  5. I think any MLB action would surprise me at this point. And it has me wondering, how was there ever a season in 1918?
  6. Much like the Redskins, the Cleveland Guardians are considering a name change. What are some thoughts on a new name for an MLB franchise that represents the city of Cleveland? Their minor league hockey team used to go by the Lake Erie Monsters, which was an incredible name. But they changed it to Cleveland Monsters, which just made it lame. It also hurts that the Angels just wasted one of the best monikers ever - Trash Pandas - on a minor league franchise. Any thoughts on a new name for a Cleveland MLB franchise?
  7. Diagnosed with colon cancer. Stage 3.
  8. I do think losing Mancini - possibly forever - is a big deal to that lineup...
  9. He’s an injury risk when counted on for 32-33 starts. But he might be able to make 12 for maybe 70IP...,
  10. No love for Bobby Kielty and his 2007 game 4 pinch home run?
  11. Ortiz ALCS grand slam off Joaquin Benoit (and Torii Hunter’s glove) in 2013...
  12. So you want more pandemics?
  13. I take it he had an opt out date that has already passed...
  14. But the Red Sox always win the World Series in years where the country is crippled by a pandemic...
  15. I’m wondering about Anthony Rizzo and Jon Lester, as both are former cancer patients and likely high risks...
  16. Tapia is one of those guys with amazing stuff who can make a baseball do just about anything. Except cross the plate. You know the type. Andreoli is this year’s Steve Selsky...
  17. So kick a little ass...
  18. Define “kick ass”...
  19. They might have underperformed last year, but you think replacing Sale, Price, Porcello and Betts with Perez, McHugh, Johnson and Verdugo/Pillar is the foundation from winning 52% of the time to 58% of the time?
  20. I think ERod, Eovaldi and Perez are locks for the rotation. But the last two spots look like some combination of Weber, Johnson and McHugh. Bullpen management will be very important. Pitching depth will be less important than in years past, but still could be deadly if things break wrong...
  21. Girardi is managing the Phillies...
  22. Sox are already down 3 from a team that only won 84 games last year...
  23. I think the Sox win 25-30 games. I am not liking their chances without Sale, Price, Porcello and Betts. That;s an awful lot of talent to lose from a team that was only 3 games over .500 last year. I don't think Martin Perez, Brian Johnson, and Ryan Weber are going to replace Sale, Price and Porcello very adequately. I do think Collin McHugh is a step up over Weber and Johnson, but will he start over either? And even if he does, cracking 30 wins might be a tall order. But hey, if they can get on a run and make it exciting, dgalehouse is right. For once, the season is a sprint...
