please end it here

They still need 3 players to score.

 

I have no problem with Dotel or Thornton giving up hr's as long as they arent walking people. (When you have this type of lead)

Yeah, with LEE pitching, Ozzie will overload with righties and also use Castro and Anderson.

 

Only one thing is for certain, your guy Betemit won't be in the line-up against Clifford.

 

He could go really crazy and stick Nix or Fields in LF if Alexei is ready to play.

 

Well...was worried if we were leading by 4 or more that the bullpen would struggle....lo and behold.

 

Jenks is MUCH more valuable to this franchise than I give him credit for sometimes...because Thornton/Linebrink closing has disaster written all over it. Would almost rather see Omogrosso in that role, but not QUITE.

Just keeping it interesting I guess... winna though!

Nice win...the guys look a little deflated right now. Time to beat C. Lee tomorrow.

500

 

lets go a's tonight

That bottom of the 9th was not necessary.

 

Good win though.

 

Thank you for trading Chris Perez to the Indians St. Louis!

 

 

Getz and Beckham turned out to have the key insurance RBI's of the game, as it turned out.

 

Don't think they would have scored 3 against BBBJ though.

 

That Indians' line-up has so much talent, they outscore us by 1 RPG, it's a shame for their fans they don't have a better manager.

 

By the way, how in God's name does Delmon Young have a 595 OPS??? Just wow. We can partially thank Bill Smith for our 2008 ALCD championship...that and holding onto Livan Hernandez too long over Liriano and getting NOTHING in return for the best pitcher in baseball, Johan Santana.

That's why they call 'em insurance runs. Hope the guys quietly celebrate the return to .500 and don't feel bad that the Tribe came back in the bottom of the ninth a bit.

I only say this cause I didn't see it on TV and saw a post that said it looked like our guys were deflated, I assume coming off the field on TV.

Good luck finding a manager that could win with that rotation sans Cliff Lee.

Our bullpen did their best to blow the game

It will be interesting to see if he uses Beckham or Nix at SS tomorrow.

 

Playing Beckham with Fields at 3B would work, but I think they will go with Jayson, for fear of upsetting the confidence Beckham has growing more comfortable by the day at third.

 

Beckham is just getting comfortable, it would be a mistake to move him around the diamond now.

 

The curse of Mark DeRosa strikes again!
