Well, he saved a run, so I guess that makes up for his K. Now Crede owes us.

Damn...that was a nice play by Dye, and effortless throw to second on a line.

Dye looked slow running to that catch.

AJ used to be an all field hitter who hit line drives, and lots of doubles.

 

Now he looks like he going to pull everything.

 

It really doesnt matter who we bring to this club, they will become a prototypical pull only hitter. If you can turn AJ into it. Nobody is safe.

Jermaine Dye is insanely slow in RF.

 

 

He would be the single worst offseason signing we could make. He has DH written all over him.

Was that catch in slow motion? Because it appeared that way.

 

Getting old is horrible sometimes.

Fantastic comparisons

 

Oh, for the days of Magglio Ordonez, Mike Devereaux, Cory Snyder and Ellis Burks.

 

Dye is running in Quikcrete out there.

Masset.... well done.

Nicely done, Masset.

I get scared whenever Uribe throws the ball to second for now one...

Great job Masset, Dye, and especially Danks!.

I agree, but we don't have to worry about him returning.

Res. for runners on first and second (3.97 era for now)

....and people want to kick his ass to the curb and send him to AAA.

If this was Floyd, we wouldn't even be in this game.

Dye wasn't this slow last year, was he? Maybe he is just trying to avoid injury in his contract year, but that doesn't explain why he cant hit s***.

Maybe we should sign Boggs and Gwynn as co-hitting coaches.

....and people want to kick his ass to the curb and send him to AAA.

 

Actually, it's more projecting the difficulty he might have when it gets hot out and the ball is flying out of the Cell. It's all going to depend on the adjustments he makes.....as he does have a good history of making them.

Sorry Danks, you deserved much better.

 

Give it up for the kid.

If this was Floyd, we wouldn't even be in this game.

Were we even in the game to begin with?

....and people want to kick his ass to the curb and send him to AAA.

 

 

I have seen both of Danks's games this year and I would be shocked if he ever pitches AAA ball again. He really looks like he belongs.

Maybe we should sign Boggs and Gwynn as co-hitting coaches.

 

Milkman would love it if we signed Boggs.

Now its funny that all of the Indians hitters have started to go oppo. I wonder if is just pure luck, or maybe their coaching staff said, AJ is calling a lot of pitches away stay back on the pitch and drive it to right.

 

Too bad we dont adjust like that. A guy can pretty much setup a chair on the outside corner, and we swing like he is going over the middle of the plate.

I feel sorry for Danks. He's pitched much better than anyone can expect of a rookie 5th starter, and the offense can't give him any sort of run support.

....and people want to kick his ass to the curb and send him to AAA.

Just another example of why wins mean absolutely nothing when judging the production of a pitcher. 6 IP 3 ER, 5.1 IP 2ER and nothing to show for it.

Yes he was this slow in the outfield.
