Stubbs 1st hit for Indians is a bunt.

I knew we were a record setting team this year.

QUOTE (Noonskadoodle @ Jun 29, 2013 -> 05:27 PM) IMPOSSIBLE to do, but what the heck. C... Josh Phegley (Deserves the opportunity) 1B... Matt Adams (Go after this potential slugger with a Peavy or Crain heading to St Louis) 2B... Kolten Wong (Matt Carpenter making it TOUGH for him to get to the big leagues, if Cards are interested in Peavy a Adams/Wong return could be a possibility) 3B... Connor Gillaspie (He has shown quite a bit so far, still young, & let's see how he progresses/adjusts) SS... Gordon Beckham (Would love to see him get a shot at SS if Lexi is moved, I think he can make the change just fine) LF... Tank (Up & down...Up & down...Up & down it seems with him throughout the seasons, but I def don't wanna give up on him yet) CF... Jacoby Ellsbury (Throw some money at him in the off season & give us a lead off hitter who can cause some real problems at the top) RF... Alex Rios (This is iffy, cause I think there is a good shot he could be traded, but if not I'll gladly keep em) DH... Adam Dunn (Don't think he will be traded & he continues to hit quite a few homers) Ellsbury - L Wong - L Rios - R Dunn - L Tank - R Adams - L Beckham - R Gillaspie - L Phegley - R Chris Sale (ACE) Josh Johnson (Coop gets him looking like his old self ) John Danks (Hopefully he starts to look like his old self again) Jose Quintana (Still young & still pitching fairly well, would like to see him continue to progress) Erik Johnson (Look forward to see him making his debut later in the season ) Talk about "realistic".... :lol: Where did Santiago go ?

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Jun 29, 2013 -> 03:20 PM) Although it probably translates into 0.00 vs. the White Sox. That is Gakethrea harsh , man.

I vote Lindstrom because he's not on your poll.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 29, 2013 -> 03:06 PM) 13 baserunners resulting in only 3 runs scoring....well, that's not so unusual for the Sox. 3-3. Tied like that. Axelrod's ERA for the month around 6. Leadoff walk and Glenbrook North's bomb resulting in RBI's 50 and 51. 405 feet. Also has almost 20 stolen bases. I think that makes 14 homers surrendered by Axe this season already. Only 405 ? Looked 435 .

Kipnis Krushed . 3-3

Axe got squeezed on the 2-1 pitch.

Damn it just knew he'd throw a curve . Couldn't get a fastball over to save his life and Tyler stares at it.

Jimenez is done.

That will do.

I need a Tank HR.

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Jun 29, 2013 -> 12:29 PM) Haha. Maybe it'll be a good luck charm and the whole season will turn around........and maybe not. I am sorry for your arthritic fingers

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 28, 2013 -> 11:36 PM) I'm pretty sure you'd actually love it if you tried to understand it. That's how I feel . I love baseball .It's America .Grew up playing it , played catch with Dad all that homespun Field of Dreams goodness to it. Played about 10,000 games of basketball. Played football in the street , parks, even frat flag football in college. Always played sports , always had a ball of some type in my hand. No jokes please. But I have to also say baseball is slow paced. Football also is with the huddles and penalties. Basketball so many fouls and free throws I can't even watch the championships. Only watch the Bulls . Hockey is pretty much constant motion and you see so many amazing plays. Hardly ever played it, some street hockey without skates , had a stick, never any skates. Dad would buy hard plastic stick blades that slid on the shaft once you broke the wooden blade and I'd curve the blade holding it over the burner on the stove top. Love watching the Hawks now because never saw them on TV growing up.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 28, 2013 -> 11:29 PM) Oh yes it is. Hockey is terrible. Even the diehards don't understand all the rules. We'll agree to disagree. I'm a diehard hockey fan and it's not all that hard of a game to understand. Baseball is much harder for the uninitiated.

QUOTE (TheBigHurtIsBack @ Jun 28, 2013 -> 05:33 PM) Echoed. I could give Robin the benefit of the doubt and put it on his lack of experience managing but just having been a player, you would think, would be enough to not mess up some of the very easy decisions he's botched. So it's 2 tickets to paradise for Robin ?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 28, 2013 -> 11:23 PM) It is June 29th at approximately 1:23 AM (CST) and it's just hit me that f***ing hockey is the best thing going in this town/ #suicidalthoughts Cheer up dude a Championship is nothing to be suicidal over.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 28, 2013 -> 11:07 PM) Are we any closer to the first draft pick, lol? Indians were almost TRYING to give that game to us (looked extremely tired out there) and Addison snatched defeat from the jaws of victory again. Yea those 28 runs in 2 games sure made them look tired.

Ump makes it 2-2 instead of 3-1 , next pitch perfect De Aza K . This marathon is ova !

On a day the Sox get 9 and 8 runs in back to back games and came into today leading the AL in ERA at home we're going to lose both games.

The comedy continues . Swisher bomb 9-8 Indians.

Sac fly CF . Blown save.

PH Giambi fly out to CF Bourne advances to 3rd. 1 out. Infield in. Kipnis the batter. Should be tied soon.

Wild pitch 8-7 no outs Bourne on 2nd.

3 batters 3 singles against Reed. 8-6
