When's the last time you saw a team with the best record in baseball fire a coach? I'd say Walker has more job security than any other hitting coach in baseball.
Yeah no way he gets fired, unless we lose the next 20 game or so by scoring less than 2 runs per.

Moyer is a guy who wants you to swing at garbage. He is around the strikezone. Our undisciplined offense with the low BA and low OBP doesnt fit well for success.
Exactly.

Our 8-9 hitters just missed those! If this game ends in the 9th, our 6-7-8-9 hitters went 0-11 tonight.
Are you surprised??? I for one am not. Moyer was probably licking his chops before the game after seeing that lineup. He really f***ed himself though by giving PK anything to hit.
QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 6, 2005 -> 05:50 PM)
All we got is 3 focking hits. You have got to be kidding me.
Did you see our lineup?? I'm not surprised. Thank god PK got a hold of 1.

:finger
damn calculator
actually my hands cant press buttons
It's all good, basically the Tribe would have to go on a tear to catch us, unless we suddenly tank it.

they have 52 games left if we go 500 the rest of the year we go 27-27 minus 27 from 41 our magic number and you get 16 that means then the indians can only affrod 16 loses before there out so to get in they would have to go 37-15 to tie 36-16
41-27 = 14

And a ridiculously easy schedule. 20 games left against KC and Tampa Bay this season.
They actually have a losing record to KC, 4-5

If we go 500 the rest of the year the indians would have to go 37-15 to catch us. Trust me we are in the playoffs the indians arnt goign to stay this hot and were not going to stay this cold.
Actually the Tribe would have to go 39-13. They have played 2 more game than us.
QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 6, 2005 -> 05:29 PM)
I think we'll make it also, but we're going to make things a lot tougher than they should be if our offense stays like this.
Let's hope our pitching can carry us to the WS.
