The good news from today's game is that the players did all we could ask. Ozzie didn't take Jose out early enough and let him pitch to Cabrera, Cox made a terrible decision, and that's really the entire game.

I expect a thread about the lack of velocity, he continuing decline, or how we need to replace him.
or, more reasonably, let's just not sign him to a 50 million dollar extension.

For 1 inning or so, Dotel is as nasty as they come.
He reminds me so much of late 90's Ugeth Urbina. Fastball that moves on a horizontal plane - totally unpredictable.

It's the main reason I have a hard time completely going off on the umpiring.
Not to sound ill-informed, but what do you speak of with Eddings? The infamous dropped 3rd with AJ? Is there more?

Nice catch by Jermaine! Ben Francisco = stud
The fact that the Indians kept Jason Michaels on their roster for 2 months when Fransisco was in the minors is amazing. It's Pods-esque.

Those looked like strikes when they crossed. CQ should have known to swing after the first two were called strikes. It's ok, good to see us fight back.
They were pretty good pitches. Not that its an excuse not to swing though.
This season is going to be so painful. At least last year you could stop caring, but this year, with the rest of the division looking even worse than us, we are going to be in the race all year, even with this offense. Stressful times ahead my friends.
