A.L. Central Discussion 2016

So Kluber's chance are, in your opinion, slim. Who takes it at this point? Porcello or Britton?

I think Kluber has no chance really. Prolly has a shot to finish top four still.

He leads the pack in nothing. Nor will he, unless six pitchers get lit up their last start. Which could happen, but the odds are more slim than Corey's.

One of my favorite migratory birds right there.

You and me both. Packed with salt, herbs and slow roasted in its own fat. Fucking delicious.

Doesn't go well with this.

Does suck. C'est la vie.

It'll be interesting to see how they CY voting goes. Do voters value wins over strikeouts? Or do they avoid the whole dilemma and go with a closer?

Makes me sad for tribe boys

FUlmer. Big game. Need to win. He could grab the ERA title with 7 innings.. Cleveland doesn't care much about tonight's game. I like our chances

 

[dougplayer]

Back tracking again iffy??
1st it was Wisconsin was going to murder Wolverines.
Now it's how we handle a top 10 team. Of course we got home field..NY other excuses???

Yes, they do. 1 1/2 games out of home-field advantage. And that's having one less game played than Tejas.

Indians have lost 3 of last 4. Just saying

Doug....important question. Are you predicting the Tigers get a Wild Card spot?

The Tribe won the ALc. Even though you told us all season long the Tigers would take care of business, you were wrong. Just saying.

And doug...please don't say something ball-less like "Detroit will take control of the Wild card situation on October 2." The doctors wrote down "Male" on your birth certificate. Prove they actually saw a pair of balls.

Wait, he doesn't have the Tigers winning the World Series this year?

 

[Erie Warrior]

Yes, they do. 1 1/2 games out of home-field advantage. And that's having one less game played than Tejas.

I honestly don't think they do. I think they are content with getting to the postseason and not losing anyone else. I think they realize home field is a bit of stretch, at this point.

Yeah, but that one that they won clinched the AL Central title and they got to have a champagne party in your shitty clubhouse.

 

[Iffster]

I think I've found another way of getting rid of doug. Ask him to state his predictions. (Challenging him to a bet, is still a good way to bounce him.)

 

[Wazmankg]

Reasonable.

Verlander is right in there. I wonder if he'll get another start.

I hope not. That would mean that they've already clinched a playoff spot and they'd probably save him to pitch the WC game. Otherwise he'll pitch the last game Sunday.

 

[Wazmankg]

Statistically no one has had a great season, except Zach Britton. Good seasons, yes great seasons, no. My 2nd pick would be Rick Porcello ... I probably over emphasize Wins and Loses. Of course, I would like to see Verlander get it, but Kluber is just as worthy.

I suppose this year would be a good one to give it to a reliever. 0.55 ERA is damn impressive, much more so than any stats the contending starters have posted.

Indians lost 4 of last 5. Is thar spiraling???
