QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 02:55 PM) First Mota will have to prove he can throw strikes consistently and that his arm won't fall apart. Plus Michaels needs to prove he can play every day and hit someone other than lefties. mota will spend some time on the DL this year.

QUOTE(GoTribe @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 02:53 PM) Mota has looked very solid as of now... .Wow I am happy we got Michaels and Shoppach and Marte for Coco and Rhodes...... This deal will be HUGE! Dont you have your own board?>

Well Brian, you are going to have to prove that you can hit the outside pitch. Otherwise, you are toast.

wow, the book on BA is to pound him outside

QUOTE(GoTribe @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 02:47 PM) Tribe Pen is overall not that bad. Not as solid as last year but still haven't seen Wickman just yet.. Overall I am happy as an Indians fan with it....Sox and Tribe's pen, to me, look similar and should be top 5 in the AL. Good battle here! without howry, Rhodes, and Riske?

damn, good at bat though.

QUOTE(rventura23 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 02:43 PM) i cant figure out how i feel about the tribe bullpen weak in the middle.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 02:42 PM) Decent Idea...but the worry is still AJ coming home if Martinez does throw it. He's not exactly fleet. Juan goes into a run down?

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 02:41 PM) That would be awful. Juan doesn't get good jumps. I have no problem with being agressive, but you got to pick and choose the situation and doing it now, this late in the game would be a poor move, imo. double steal?

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 02:41 PM) Ask and ye shall receive. Can we give Ozzie some credit for that move? always.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 02:39 PM) Very nice call my friend.

I want to see cintron here.

aim for CF AJ

QUOTE(daa84 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 02:35 PM) sure seems like it I absolutley hate the f***er too. Everything about him.

QUOTE(daa84 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 02:32 PM) yeah...and jenks wasnt used in 1 run games right away either....he moved quickly into them, but he started out in blowouts against the royals.

Come on wedge, you dont even know what a hit and run is.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 02:26 PM) Boone should not be in late in a game with a 1 run game going. I would rather have thorton and his 94 mph fastball going against Hafner in that situation. now he knows, and learning is half the battle

No reason to take BMAC out, he was cruising.

The legend of Boone logan

ADP strikes again Every f***ing April

a steal of 3B would be nice.

f***, Betancourt owns.

lefty on lefty with an intentional walk.

QUOTE(WCSox @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 02:12 PM) Very similar delivery. Both have that big, sweeping breaking ball as well. Not sure about the other pitches, though. I absolutley hate Mussina's stretch delivery. It annoys the s*** out of me.
