Kluber's just nasty. He might be the best pitcher in the AL.

My fucking god, is Fox sports trolling through the garbage pile for analysts? Seriously, Pete Rose (a mumbling, incoherent buffoon), ARod (what's not to hate, regardless of his talent), And Frank Thomas (don't get me wrong, I loved watching the Big Hurt play except when he was beating up the Blue Jays pitchers but he is stuttering like a nerdy teeny bopper).
The best analysts are usually the retired guys who had just solid but not superstar careers. There are hundreds of retired ball players out there. There has to be 1 or 2 who can actually speak on camera intelligently. Fox is just terrible.

you may hate him, but ARod is a good analyst.

inside strike kind of to close to the batter for Cleveland.

I find A-Rod to be very enjoyable to listen to, especially in contrast to the other FOX guys. He did a great piece on the Cubs a day or two ago. Unlike the other FOX guys, he's actually insightful. Most dislike I had for him has dwindled over the last few years, but after listening to him, I've started to like him.

Also, most won't agree with me (understandably), but I think Buck's gotten a lot better over the last few years. Not a fan, but I think he's become a lot more tolerable to listen to and he seems to show more excitement in some of his calls now. He does need to stop with the "tying run on deck" kind of stuff though.
