Red sox might luck out tonight. Fulmer finally throws a clunker. Had to happen. Rookie leading the league Era...The kid will bounce back

 

[dougplayer]

Big papi wants papelbon back

 

[navamind]

Dozier continues to mash. At .268/.341/.538 now. Slugging over .700 with 21 home runs since June 18.

 

[navamind]

10-2

They're trying to make the bullpen implosion *that* much worse?

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Tribe dick swinging.

@Bloody Brian Burke

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Volquez is so fucking bad... The mere thought of this team even considering a QO for him is absurd.

 

[WiggyRuss]

wow.

unbelievable.

Tyler Naquin certainly is making his ROY case- but more importantly- 7 game lead in the division.

unbelievable ending. Jose Ramirez has been incredible this season.


i mean cmon...walk off inside the park homerun? crazy. I love doing it against Osuna and the Jays who just may be a playoff opponent.

 

[WiggyRuss]

@SlinkyRedfoot if you were to rate the 5 most important players on the tribe thus far this season what would yours be? Mine would look like this-

1. Francisco Lindor
2. Mike Napoli
3. Corey Kluber
4. Jose Ramirez
5. Jason Kipnis

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Porcello dry fucked Fulmer.

Red Sox need Papelshat badly.

Party at Napoli's.

Party at Napoli's.

I think you're close. Maybe there. To really answer the question, I'd need to know the clubhouse, which I don't.

But seven up. Eight in the loss.

thats why i had napoli so high....seems like he has been extremely important in bringing this team together.

Kipnis- after having 9 bombs last year- really coming through and having a great season also helps.

but when all is said and done- the Indians best player is Francisco Lindor- the kid was born to play baseball. He looks like he could be a multi-time all star and play the position the next decade here. There are not too many guys id trade Lindor for in the big leagues i can tell you that.

Kipnis wishes he was Upton at the plate. Or so I'm told.

i knew upton would suck this year....

the year RIGHT AFTER he signs a huge contract- switching leagues....the guy doesnt have any heart at all. Seems he specializes in the contract year resurgence...now that the Tigers are on the hook for the next half decade he can go back to half-caring.

I love that they did it in front of all those pole sniffing Canuks in our park.

Nah. He's opting out. Guaranteed. Or so I'm told.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Just like David Price.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

I gotta plan a Mexican meal for 15 for Sunday night.

Shrimps and skirt fajitas. Tasty.

 

[broncosmitty]

Ha. They all make money. Some just use it on the field more efficiently.
