White sox fan? They are not many of those.

El Presidente.

AL Cy Young Awards....Current odds:

Kluber - 8 to 5
Porecello - Even
Verlander - scratched

Vegas odds include the ''dougplayer adjustment'', with the factoring of his backing of Verlander (as the winner)

Indians did not offer Napoli or Davis the QO...not surprised...they werent gonna pay Napoli 17 million for one season...thats way more than athey paid both of those guys combined...i am sure they think they are smart enough where they can spend 17 million a lot better in free agency.

not that i think they won try and resign napoli- but they arent gonna give him 20% of their freaking payroll on a 35 year old dh/1b.

 

[WiggyRuss]

this years pitching market is the thinnest ever.....if you were the tribe would you consider trading a starting pitcher for a big bat?

no way they deal kluber....i doubt carrasco....if they deal one of their major league guys i think it would be salazar because of amount of talent they can get back- and the fact that he isnt signed through his arbitration years like carrasco.....bauer i doubt they trade since i dont think they would get the value back they would want.....tomlin isnt going anywhere obviously as he has more value to the indians then anywhere else.

Don't forget to vote!!!!!!
TRUMP IS A LOCK!! CAN'T MISS!!! GUARANTEED! !!!!
HEEEEEHAWWWWWWWWEWW
sure hope I didn't jinx that loser of a POS Trump

I have seen this "suggestion" in a couple of articles recently. It proposes that Detroit package Verlander and Cabrera, in trade, to one of the 4 or 5 teams that could afford their contracts. Neither article gave an opinion of WHICH wealthy team would want or need these two aging and (soon to be) overpaid stars. Of course it was suggested that Detroit pick up some of the cash in a deal - and in return receive "several good prospects". [I think both authors were looking at their fantasy trade as mainly a salary dump for the Tigers.]

I was surprised to see Britton absent from the final three. He had an incredible season, and no starter finished with an ERA under 3.00. I guess the anti-reliever sentiment has gotten worse since the days of Dennis Eckersley and Guillermo Hernandez.

Verlander scratched. What a fool.
Speaking of Verlander. He had a charity outing for VETS downtown yesterday. What a guy.

 

[dougplayer]

My vote has been cast. Against trump. 1st time I voted democrate. And 1st time I ever voted for a woman.I bet $50 on out come. Ammo for lottery tickers

Sorry doug. Vegas bookies heard YOU were backing Verlander, and once they considered your MLB prediction record, they had to take Verlander's name off the board....they figured with your "support" he was assured of third place.

And don't forget...JV might be pitching for the Yankees or Dodgers in 2017, after the Big Purge of '16!

Sorry to be the one to break this to you doug. Jumping Jimmy Harbaugh has voted for Trump. In fact he has donated thousands of dollars to Trump's campaign. Booger Boy is hoping Trump will appoint him Ambassador to Uruguay Mexico, in the event that the Wolverines lose (again) to the Buckeyes and he needs a place to hide. If Clinton wins, Harbaugh plans to leave Ann Arbor (after OSU defeat) and hide out as asst quarterback coach at Eastern Winnipeg Community College.

I got $4300 on that old bag.

So we have dougy to blame for Trump?

Whether doug is responsible or not, we better all hope, as Chris Matthews said early this morning, "That there is a pony in the crap pile."

Chalk that one up as a contribution to the Clinton Foundation.

No sympathy for Clinton. In a year's time, she will be back charging 6 figures to do a one hour speech in front of some organization of wealthy white businessmen or women's group. (Trump would have done the same if he had lost....except maybe not too many 'women's group' gigs).

Sympathy definitely isn't the emotion she draws out of me.

 

[Iffster]

Well...let's just say Trump showed Heart and move on to Winter Baseball.

Although I will worry about Vice and his Venezuelan, Uruguayan, Brazilian Mexican wife being able to get over/under/around the Wall.

Jimmy jam for president in 2024!!!

2024? By that time, the Wolverines will be playing second fiddle to the Western Michigan Broncos, in the new and improved BIG10.
