You know, it's clear the Indians could have given Guthrie more ML opportunities. But let's also look at this: Guthrie made ~100 minor league starts for the...
What you're saying below may be correct, but it sure didn't take a lot of time for Mazzone to turn Guthrie around. It speaks more against why the Indians...
... Maybe, but I think you still look at potential with young pitchers. Look at it this way: the Indians have never had a problem -- never -- finding spots for...
(Forget to finish the sentence below...) And even if they chose not to give him a chane, even if his minor league numbers were forgettable, a #1 draft pick. ...
If this dosen't sound like the drunk guy 10 minutes before last call trying to talk himself into the fat girl in the corner, I don't know what does: " Could a...
You know, you look at what's happened to Bob Wickman this week and I think we see the evil of the law of averages. I think the argument that Borowski could not...
What about that game winning home run that Sandy Alomar Jr. hit? That was an amazing moment. The Indians didn't win the world series that year but went...
It's nice just the same to see an Indian or two on the team anyway. Their accomplishments are recognized elsewhere besides Cleveland. That's how I look at it....

Triv is reporting that they are on the verge of signing Pronk through 2012, despite reports in the PD that they are not talking. The holdup wasn't money, it...
Mike Hargrove has resigned as manager of the Mariners. He and his wife are in the process of coming back to Cleveland, where they have maintained their home. ...
So can we all agree that The Wedgester has no idea how to handle his pitching staff? Even Buddy Bell wouldn't have left his pitcher in long enough to hit...
... Yes, but fortunately we were able to win because of the clutch hitting of Casey Blake and the shut-down relief of Joe Borowski. To showcase how worthless...
You don't hear that old cliche about the team in first place on the fourth of july much anymore but.... Hard to believe, the Indians are 1/2 game off having...
//To showcase how worthless the stat "win" is for a reliever, Tom Mastny "earned" his sixth ... by loading the bases after a to-the-wall flyout, then weaseling...
"I was just trying to get something going with two outs," Blake said. "I just happened to run into a slider." You'd think running into a slider would hurt.......
He was probably watching the game. After the bottom of the 10th, the announcers proclaimed, "WHAT a job by Mastny!!" I was cringing EVERY pitch. He had...
By the way, I haven't been able to find much in the papers this morning about THE oddest part of that game. The sudden apperaance of a stopwatch to time...
... Well, at least he's consistent. On Monday, recall, he left Carmona in there to load the bases then hit Wigginton to make it a one-run game. Managing...
