I apologize doug. If a can of Coke and a TV is all you can afford for your dinner...I shouldn't make fun of you. PS...check out the Salvation Army Kitchens or local Christian charities. They often serve free meals on certain days.
Dude. I make more than you. I just don't brag about my yearly income

Indians keep on having injuries---- but someone keeps stepping up.

Otero with a great job last night. The defense was positively amazing as well. Urshela, Zimmer, Lindor, Perez all made great plays.

Nervous about Miller. The Tribe NEEDS him come October. Lets hope if he takes 3-4 weeks off he can come back in enough time to get sharp for the playoffs.

Still missing Chiz and Brantley. Kipnis has been hurt this year quite a bit. Kluber missed a month. Salazar missed time- etc.....

this team is really resilient though.

Plus- I love beating the Red Sox.....esp. like they did last night.

This is why I tell Tiger fans to quit whining about injuries. Other teams have it just as bad or worse, but they have the organizational depth to overcome a few missing players.

I agree with you regarding Miller. Something's not right there and he is critical for a post season run. I also love LOVE beating the Red Sox. The deserve to have their hearts broken a few dozen times

absolutely ANYTHING can happen in a playoff series

but i like the fact that the Tribe has gotten to Sale and Kimbrel this year already.

I laugh at the thought of David Price---- I remember in the ALDS last year Francona starting Chiz against him- a lefty.....and then Chiz takes him deep. lol. Tribe had a guy like Guyer who mashes lefties--- Francona starts Chiz-- and Chiz hit a 3 run bomb off him if i remember correctly. It was glorious.

Honestly- I hate David Price....what a whiner.

RE: Andrew Miller
Tribe team doctor stated that his injury is "nothing a Coke and a Hungry Man TV dinner can't fix."

I particularly enjoy "can't miss" FA's totally bombing when they go to Boston. Lets see here...

Carl Crawford
Pablo Sandoval
Adrian Gonzalez
Carl Everett (remember that nut job?)
John Lackey
I am sure I am forgetting a few...I think we can safely say that David Price has not worked out either, so fork'em!

The Tigers haven't really been plagued by injuries this year ... no excuses.

Forget Justine Verlander and Kluber. Let's talk Miguel (Mr. Avatar) Cabrera

Any one have Miggy's homerun totals for August...or maybe HR/RBI totals since All-Star game?

.259/.344/.413 13 HR 56 RBI = Miggy
.253/.323/.375 10 HR 47 RBI = ? unnamed Tiger star

Miggy will roll those stats into a $30 million a year salary for the next four years. (+2 yrs at $32mil after that)
Oh...the Tigers aren't done paying mega-bucks to the ''unnamed" player either.

(How many rings did these two guys get the Tigers....?)

It's not just a "bad year for him", he's been one of the worst players in the league.
