That inning SUCKED. And to think I was glad we didn't end up getting Peavy.

NVM, they're earned.

None of these runs are earned right?

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 01:16 PM) Getz can play the OF, at least he has in the minors, frankly, i'd rather give Fields a chance out their again, it doesn't pay too me too concerned with having decent defense in LF, if you're going to sacrifice it in more important areas. I guess... Fields wasn't absolutely atrocious when he played there in 07. Nix has played two games in LF thus far and he's been an above average fielder with a UZR of 0.8. He's almost saved a run in only two games.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 01:13 PM) Nix is a premier defensive middle infielder, that man should never play LF ever. He's in there for his bat right now. Getz can't play LF.

Beckham needs to catch that ball...

Clayton Richard just can't finish hitters...

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 01:08 PM) Why is Nix in LF? I think Ozzie finally found out that BA is horrible against left handed pitchers.

Well that's not good after going up 0-2... Let's hope he can get passed Sizemore.

QUOTE (LZPride08 @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 12:37 PM) so do you want to get rid of Thome? cuz idk what we'd get for him He's a FA after this season I think. My idea is that we should bring back JD as the DH. And then sign Chone Figgins to play 3B (you know Kenny wants to). Quentin moves to RF. Put Alexei in either LF or CF and move Beckham back to SS.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 09:33 AM) We face another tomorrow against the Twins. Nope. Perkins is too sick. Blackburn will make the start. Perkins might make the start on Saturday.\ BTW, David Huff actually came off a good start against Oakland where the Indians scored him 15 runs. Let's hope we score 15 for Clayton today because he might need it.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 11:19 AM) I've decided that is the 1 position I want us to spend money on this offseason; 1 corner OF. Could be JD for 1 more year. JD should be DHing in all honesty.

He should only use it when we get a big walk-off win or when Konerko hits another grand-slam. Too much of it will get really, really old.

Let's hope that Jose can go one more here and then hand it to Thornton for the 8th.

Castro's had some really, really, bad luck. He's missed two home runs by a combined 5 feet.

The Reds are a better team than Houston. They will get Volquez back and a rotation of Volquez, Cueto, Harang, Arroyo, and Owings isn't too shabby. Plus, that offense should hit. Votto's back now and I really don't expect Bruce to hit .215 all year long.

Greinke's been looking bad lately. This isn't exactly new.

And they gave him a record setting deal for a closer like 3 years ago.

When is Ozzie going to realize that BA is hitting like .130 against lefties this year?

Nix batting 5th? Hmm... Laffey's actually been pretty damn good against us in his career. 2-1 with a ERA in the low 3s.

Good win today. Bullpen sucked, but Mark battled and Paulie was just too damn awesome. 2 back still. Back in second.

It would be real nice to have him back after the ASB. I'd rather have him in Minnesota, but oh well.

2 outs. Get this damn game over with. In no way should the Indians only be down by 4.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 09:52 PM) They can play Fields at 1st, 3rd and LF. Pie can't do that. There is no other backup 1B close to the majors now unless you count Flowers or Cook. I'd much rather see Flowers than Fields... Fields has much better potential at this point than Pie. If Fields just gets rid of that stupid hitch before he swings, he'd actually hit a damn fastball and hit some homers.

NO WHAT? Is this what Kenny calls good deals? Jesus...
