Crazy game. Minny found a way to lose LOL

*Baldelli did. Negligent managing.

Francona vs Baldelli is the biggest mismatch in sports history. Our only chance is if he has more health problems and has to leave for the last 2-3 months. Or if Baldelli gets falsely accused of a triple homicide and sentenced to life in prison.

Ill choose option two. Dont want Tito sick.

With how young the Cleveland Baseball Team is I'm surprised at how well they're playing right now. Wish more of their games were televised out here.

Badly needed victory today. Regardless of how this series ended, it is clear the Twins desperately need bullpen help.

Could be worse, Twins fans.

Archer has quietly been a pretty good pickup for you guys.

Good series win. Cleveland took the sweep. This is going to be a fun next 4 days. Get 3 of 5.

That's all I want and is not that much to ask.

He's been good, but our management is treating him with kid gloves. Maybe that's appropriate with his recent injuries, but with how the bullpen has been taxed, we need the starters to start going a little deeper into games.

Dude had a one hit shutout through 5 and gets pulled with 78 pitches, let him get one more!

An SEC baseball power is giving him a huge pay bump. I don't like that he's leaving at the end of the week, but he has to do what's best for him and his family.

Hopefully he doesn't pick up that accent overnight.

Buxton slugging .589 despite batting .238. putting up some insane power numbers.

This is just insane:

QUickly got the division lead back.

Now a 5 game between the best of the worst

 

[YourFriendGannon]

Finally..Billy Butler 2.0 is here.

 

[VikingFan2k2]

It sounds like Wes Johnson is not getting nearly as big of a pay bump as I originally thought. From 350K to like 380-390K. Originally there were reports of it going to 700K.

This had to have been 11th hour stuff that he had to take the job or leave it and he likes the college game better and get out on the recruiting trail. But it is pretty weak sauce that he has to leave in the middle of a season like this.

I forgot he was from Arkansas, so he doesn't even have to use a fake accent like Kelly did.

Holy crap!!!

After years of saying I wish Dolan would sell the Cleveland Baseball Team it's finally happening.

Saw on the runner (espn) David Blitzer is now minority owner and will take full control.

Never heard of him. Apparently he's co-managing partner and minority owner of the N.J. Devils & 76ers.

The idea of Cleveland having an owner willing to spend money is a scary proposition for the rest of the division.

When I saw in the info on espn's runner one thing that was mentioned was it should give the team an infusion of capital.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Convincing W.

Definitely good to start the 5 gamer off with a W.

Win 2 of the last 4 and in really solid shape.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Kyle Garclick with a career slash against righties of .192/.257/.298 and Baldumbass has him hitting clean up.

Of course with 2 on in his first AB he swings and misses for a K on the most obnoxious hanging curve possible.

Not Garlicks fault our manager cant look at the basics.
