// Don't buy it Bob Payton is another one of those reclamation projects when you don't have the cash, remember Jason Bere and Mark Wohlers? You have to read...
// I am curious what have they won? Hmm maybe they haven't lived up to their end of the bargain yet. Lets wait and see if the fans come if they deliver on the...
In the 13th, the first lefty to face Cabrera hit a liner to Broussard. That definitely made me nervous, since Cabrera was in his 3rd inning of work. Then,...
The Indians have scored 3.7 runs per game in their last 12 games versus lefties. They have allowed an average of 2.6 runs per game in those 12 games. And yet...

Is Scott Sauerbeck still on the team? Seriously...what did he do to attain Riske status? Now, of course, I don't think he should have come in to face Gload,...
Last night we had to watch Wedge sleep while Cabrera -- a decent pitcher but in this THIRD inning in relief??? -- lose the game. Today we have to watch Jake...
It's amazing. This team is finishing the season EXACTLY the way they started it. Solid pitching, not only BAD hitting, but STUPID hitting...and a manager who...

Couldn't agree more..I had said earlier this week that Wedge had to manage these games as if they were game seven of the World Series. Unfortunately, he...

Is this really happening? Have we just lost 5 of 6 to last place teams and a good team with absolutely nothing to play for? With 4 of those losses being at...
The only thing worse than getting my hope us over the last 6 weeks is that now I have to root for the Yankees to win a game. Visions of hated Yankees past are...

I wonder with the Yankees clinching their position in the playoffs today whether we might see a repeat of what the White Sox did...a AAA lineup. I'll be...
RE: Today we have to watch Jake Westbrook run out of gas and get no assist from his manager by way of a bullpen. You know, I started wondering about that after...
re: I'm just sick right now... I'm telling you, it was soooo disheartening walking through those exits today. I am resolved to getting rid of my tickets for ...
It's some sort of karma. We've spent the last 6 weeks snickering and joking about the ChiSox choking...and it turned out to be us. Oh boy, a winter of...
No. I don't think there will be a winter of Cleveland Indians jokes. I think the Indians will immediately become a non-story in sports. It's a shame because...
If the Yanks win the East, they get to play either Cleveland or Anaheim. If they end up with the wildcard, they get Chicago. They still have something to play...
Yes. It's a shame. In a week, the Indians have gone from a story-book season to a season that's just a little better than we thought they'd be. ... From:...
A year ago, many had a positive spin for the Indians season. Sure, they collapsed down the stretch, but they did show flashes of being a good club. Now here...

CC has not choked. Lee has not choked. Millwood (bless your soul) has not choked. Wickman did not choke. Westbrook technically has not choked - he has, but in...

No..they have clinched the East either way...they have the tiebreaker over Boston..so if the Yanks lose today, they still win the East....
This is beautifully said, and I agree completely. This team is the '94 Indians. I suspect that if the lockout hadn't occurred, we would have ended just out...
You're right. My mistake. Yanks will barely participate today. I would think they'd still send Mussina out there though to at least get him some work. ... ...
