July 14, 200619 yr the smiley didnt show up earlier pretty good pitching matchup Saturday. CC Sabaitha against Johan Santana
July 14, 200619 yr Ronnie Belliard - 2B - Indians Ronnie Belliard is making his first start at third base since 2002 against the Twins on Friday night. Though he's seen plenty of time at third in winter ball, Belliard hadn't played anywhere other than second base in a major league game since 2002. This would seem to indicate that the Indians are beginning the process of phasing out Aaron Boone. Joe Inglett is starting at second base tonight. By Aug. 1, Andy Marte could be a mainstay in Cleveland's lineup. Jul. 14 - 6:54 pm et
July 15, 200619 yr Twins beat the Tribe in extras Jason Tyner just called up today to replace the injured Lew Ford knocked in the winning run
July 18, 200619 yr 4 wins in a row for the Twins 6-3 beat the D Rays 6 games behind the Sox now. eep.

July 18, 200619 yr well, its nots going to be pretty Rondell White is goign to be playing left feild *ducks* btw, tommorrow its Liriano -vs- Kazmir great young lefty pitching matchup

July 18, 200619 yr As someone who got to see White last year with the Tigers, I can tell you seeing him in the outfield is a nightmare. He's not really *bad* defensively, just his shoulder is so destroyed he has basically no arm, and he'll likely suffer a season ending injury the first time he dives for a ball.
July 18, 200619 yr its like having Shannon Stewart out there! btw, Stewart is likely out for the year with foot problems
July 18, 200619 yr I don't know why the Tribe didn't try to deal Aaron Boone early in the season. Heck, they could probably still get something from San Diego for him.
July 19, 200619 yr 8.2 IP. 3 hits(I say 2 because Lee was so f***ing out on that ball hit up the middle). 7 K's. It was his first start against Tampa, so I won't orgasm about how amazing he is... ...for now

July 20, 200619 yr QUOTE(Benchwarmerjim @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 08:40 PM) Rondell White so far is 3-3 2HR and a double LOL, I said to my dad "Hey, that's not looking like a bad signing afterall" to which he replied "It's f***ing July"
July 20, 200619 yr The Indians finally started selling. Bob Wickman goes to the Braves for Minor League Catcher Max Ramirez. Link.
July 21, 200619 yr Just a quick update to everyone out there, Johan Santana is still incredibly underrated. It makes no sense to me, never will. Carry on.
July 21, 200619 yr QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 06:33 PM) Who the hell is this Tyner kid in Minnesota? Guy is hitting .393 You need to brush up on your no-name baseball players. Jason Tyner is a journeyman OF who spent a few years in the majors with the D-Rays, last year he hit pretty damn well for the Twins and he seems to be doing the same this year.

Slap hitter that can run with the best of them..ideal role/bench player....decent starter in stretch's. Here come the Twins

Wasn't he on Texas too? I might be wrong though. IIRC, Tyner is a good small ball guy with a good amount of speed and bunting ability. That being said, I could be confusing him with someone else.

That being said, I could be confusing him with someone else. I dont know about being on Texas, but that pretty much descibes him He was left off the opening day roster and had a chance to sign elsewhere this spring, but took an assingment for Rochester. IIRC, he made the AAA All Star team and was called up right after that when all the Twins outfeild went down He was up last year as a Sept call up, slapped the ball around and made quite a few fans with his hustle I dont know if he is an everyday player, but hes been getting some clutch slap hits in the short time he has been up Tonights game against the Tribe was fugly. The home ump was inconistent, in fact Fatboy sabathia got ejected for yelling at the ump . But it didnt matter because Wedge already gave him the hook The Twins may have won, but Carlos Silva still remains very hittable and probably should not be in the rotation. He started, the offense gave him 9 runs and didnt make it to the 5th
July 22, 200619 yr last year he gave up a ton of hits, but he also induced the most double plays becuase his sinker actually sank] this year his sinker is flat and has become a flyball pitcher. not good for a sinkerballer
