Is the Indians season over yet? Beating that minor league team in Detroit these last 2 games isn't impressive. Tito has lost his edge.

Cold weather. Not much hitting

No question the cold has something to do with it. MLB hitting numbers are down overall so far, and the Tigers have yet to play a game where the temperature at opening pitch is higher than 40 degrees.

That said, there were plenty of opportunities to score last night, and the hitters didn't get it done. Situational/clutch hitting was pisspoor. One might say they had no HEART.

Troll on special fella troll on. So the Indians are off to a slow start @ 6-5. Last year through 11 games they were 5-6. And in 2016 though 11 games they were 6-5.

Considering his diet consists of refried beans he could hit a bomb in the clubhouse terlit. That is safe money there Potsie

Jordan Zimmermann of the 1.645 WHIP going for the Tigers. If the Indians' bats don't at least get a little healthy off this guy....then they have troubles.

I was wondering...if for some strange reason Cleveland let Tito go...what would be the over/under (in minutes) before he had another MLB managerial job? In other words...how fast could the Illitch family push Gardenhire out the door and give Tito the job of managing Detroit? I'd put the over/under at 12 minutes....and bet the under.

They may offer but if Tito takes another manager job outside of Cleveland it will be a team that is ready to win now. He has earned the right to be selective.

So. Tigers not only have to battle the other team all year. But also the cold. Bauer called it unsafe....i takes HEART to pitch as good as the tiger starters have. Tip of the sombrero to things hombres.

THere's no crying in baseball. Put your extra warm scarf on and try to score at least one run in a game. Oh, and if you can muster two runs in cold weather, your chances of winning might go up to the heavens.

time for a random "caption contest"......GO
