AL CENTRAL DISCUSSION

Tribe home opener today. Hopefully the offense wakes up.

In 35-degree weather? Good luck with that. . .

Didn't know what the weather was gonna be like today. Yeah that's a bit chilly for a baseball game. I know the Tribe doesn't use Chief Wahoo anymore but can you still find Indians gear back home w/ that logo?

These bums wont hit till July

Maybe they can muster 4 or 5 hits off of Ivan Nova, but doubtful.

Poor Bauer and Clevinger, brilliant outings but no cigar at a W because of limp dick offense and shit bullpen.

Good thing the White Sox pen is worse than ours

Going by memory, but think we have scored 2 runs off other team starting pitchers in 4 games.

Might have the best rotation in the league, if Salazar can ever get healthy that 1-5 is nasty. BP is still out for debate.

The lineup is not. Not only do they have some injuries early but they really didn't beef the lineup at all. Cheap, very cheap. If they don't sign Ramirez and Lindor long-term when the time comes....they are hopeless. Wish they would spend more to get some veteran hitters and outfielders. For fuck sake.

Just need the Indians to trade some of their pitching.

Don't worry, other than Lindor, Ramirez or Santana, nobody can hit a fucking beach ball

well, they still have Ramirez for I think 4 years and Lindor for 3. No chance either signs another deal here. I am a Dolan critic, but I wouldn't blame him for not giving Lindor a Harper type deal.

But as mentioned, inexcusable they didn't find a way to bring in Cruz and/or Gonzalez over the winter.

Yep, they are likely to spin into 2009/2010 mode real quick in the next few years with the way things are trending

Well the Twins are still on the “let’s try and finish our ABs in 2 pitches or less” kick, and Jason Castro is still getting starts.

So things could be interestingly mediocre here
