MLB Daily Thread: 10/26/17 - Indians Steal Red Sox Pitching Coach

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Red Sox pitching coach, Carl Willis, has left the Red Sox and joined the Indians as their pitching coach.

I had a chance to speak with Mr Willis over the phone, and he told me he made the decision because "Dustin Pedroia is an annoying little elf, Chris Sale looks like a methed-out Florida Georgia Line fan, and Cleveland rocks."

Suck it, Boston.

Interesting, first I've heard of this. Wonder if Price had anything to do with it

Oh, yeah, I forgot. Carl told me that Price was a whiney bitch and he couldn't stand dealing with him anymore.

Most likely reason that you've mentioned

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Was pretty interesting, though.

Not too often you hear about a guy leaving a franchise like the Red Sox to come to the Indians in a lateral move.

Could be that he's excited to work with Francona and arguably the best pitching staff in the history of the game.

Could also be that he recognized the Red Sox window has closed. Amirite, @DirtDirtDirt?

In other news, Indians organization and fans dumbfounded that 22 game win streak does not guarantee trip to World Series. Seek solace from 2002 Oakland A's.

Got Torre'ed.

Could be that he's excited to work with Francona and arguably the best pitching staff in the history of the game.

And that's why the Indians are "WATCHING" the WOrld Series and not playing in it.

Oh wait a minute....That "Worlds Greatest Pitching Staff" couldn't beat the Wild Card Yankees.......

Well, i started a thread

In other news, @DirtDirtDirt threads continued to be ignored. SportsHoopla readers cite poor grammar, lack of objectivity, and unrealistic New York outlook as main reasons.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Got Torre'ed.

yeah...something like that.
