greasywheels121 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 It appears a lot of the posts in the MLB Catch-All thread deals with our division. Since that involves the rivals we're concerned with most, it probably deserves its own thread. Consider this the Central's Catch-All Thread. We'll see how this goes. And if anyone thinks of a better name, we'll change it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSqwert Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 What's the word on Captian Cheeseburger Sabathia? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Carlos Silva walked two batters.... I know it doesn't sound like a lot, but he didn't walk more than one batter in a game all last season, and finished with a single digit walk total.

Yoda Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 Haffner's a beast. He's put the Tribe on top 1-0 by hitting his fourth HR in just 7 AB's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I wouldn't do to have him on our team. Or for our minor league system to develop a player comparable to his talent. Honestly, I rather have the Indians entire lineup aside from Boone and Blake. And when the day arrives in which Marte is promoted, I'd rather have him as well. They're going to be good for a LONG time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Einar Diaz trade did real well for the Rangers. It's not like Hafner is a youngster either. He was a late bloomer. He's just a year younger than Konerko.

I didn't mean to give the Indians credit for developing him. A sizable portion of the Indians club was assembled from trades as it is. I know Sizemore and Lee came over from Montreal during the Colon trade, and I believe Belliard was aquired from Colorado (?). I'm sure there are several I'm forgetting.

I'm sure there are several I'm forgetting. If after this season, we started going and offering guys like Buehrle, Konerko, etc., up in Trades, like they did with Colon, Thome, and a couple of their other big pieces, in a few years, we may very well have that much talent built up as well. Just watch Florida in a few years But we've got a bigger salary, so we're actually able to do something better than that; we can stay competitive every year, by bringing up a few pieces (BA, BMac) and holding on to/finding the more expensive pieces that it takes to win every year. Personally, I think I like where we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 QUOTE(Chi Sox 88 @ Apr 8, 2006 -> 04:34 PM) Indians lead 2-0 in the 5th. Final--Cleveland defeated Minnesota 3-0. They're now 4-1. Pronk was 3-3 with 2RBI, HR, 2B, 1B, BB. My guy Liriano (aka type of hardthrowing starter we'll never see in our organization) struck out 4 over 2.2IP. He's another player that's going to haunt the dreams of AL Central opponents for a LONG time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
