MAKE HIS ARM FALL OFF CASEY!!!

Tribe fan from far, far away

by LGT Patrick on May 18, 2008 3:17 PM EDT   0 recs

Casey sucks but does just enough to ensure that he will keep playing

by Roger Dorn on May 18, 2008 3:17 PM EDT   0 recs

casey could take a shit on the 3rd base bag and never even try to field a ball and he will keep playing

by Gradyforpresident on May 18, 2008 3:18 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I have a feeling that would be some kind of unacceptable.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:19 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

that was actually a bad swing by aubrey….outside changeup, and he pulled it.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:17 PM EDT   0 recs

waiiit…it was a good swing, but bad process.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:18 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Well, we’ve achieved our objective. Volquez at 110+ pitches. That means we win, right? Oh. My mistake.

by peter m on May 18, 2008 3:18 PM EDT   0 recs

Dusty will bring him out for more

by Roger Dorn on May 18, 2008 3:20 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Extra Innings!!

by peter m on May 18, 2008 3:20 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

That would be awesome.

what’d I miss?

by APV on May 18, 2008 3:19 PM EDT   0 recs

i’m the most negative person in the world

by Gradyforpresident on May 18, 2008 3:20 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

also! aubrey was fired and hired

by Gradyforpresident on May 18, 2008 3:20 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Hopes and inspired fandom being crushed by Adam Dunn and Brandon Phillips.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:20 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

The Aubrey era has begun. The Lee era has ended.

Buffalo players are bored and do well when called upon

by Roger Dorn on May 18, 2008 3:20 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Indians fans are bored by continued lack of hitting.

by peter m on May 18, 2008 3:22 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Brandon Phillips bad. Milton Bradley real real real bad.

by SuddenSam on May 18, 2008 3:22 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Lee’s final line this year:

10-12, 4.25 ERA

It's the Arizona talking, really.

by RD74 on May 18, 2008 3:21 PM EDT   0 recs

Carlos Lee pitches?

by peter m on May 18, 2008 3:22 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Yeah cause some meh singles…...constitutes the end of a season.

by mjschaefer on May 18, 2008 3:22 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Just a feeling based on nothing. The negativity of this series is taking its toll

It's the Arizona talking, really.

by RD74 on May 18, 2008 3:24 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Wash your mouth out with soap

by Roger Dorn on May 18, 2008 3:23 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

? Go home. Or somewhere.

by supermarioelia on May 18, 2008 3:25 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

If you’d have told me before the season that by mid-May Michael Aubrey would have more HRs than a healthy Victor Martinez, I’d have punched myself in the face

by jhon on May 18, 2008 3:22 PM EDT   0 recs

Alas, he is not healthy.

I tried to make Paul Reuschel my Avatar, but he didn't fit into the box.

There was a Trevor Crowe sighting in Akron’s lineup yesterday.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:23 PM EDT   0 recs

0-2 breaking ball with no break.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:23 PM EDT   0 recs

And goodnight

cliff lee is over

by Gradyforpresident on May 18, 2008 3:24 PM EDT   0 recs

Cliff Lee is so April.

by SuddenSam on May 18, 2008 3:26 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Bloop hit watch in effect

by SuddenSam on May 18, 2008 3:24 PM EDT   0 recs

I forgot that bloops go out in this park.

by SuddenSam on May 18, 2008 3:25 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Yeah, shouldn’t have brought him out after the way last inning ended.

by maledicta on May 18, 2008 3:24 PM EDT   0 recs

Easy to say now.

Tribe fan from far, far away

by LGT Patrick on May 18, 2008 3:25 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Check the record. Said it after last inning, too.

by maledicta on May 18, 2008 3:25 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I wanted to sing Mr. Lee so, so, badly.

by gahnki on May 18, 2008 3:24 PM EDT   0 recs

I’m going golfing. Fuck this.

by mjschaefer on May 18, 2008 3:25 PM EDT   0 recs

It’s raining in NE Ohio if you live here.

So that might be a bad idea.

by gahnki on May 18, 2008 3:26 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

hmmm….

by APV on May 18, 2008 3:25 PM EDT   0 recs

these pitches this inning are absolutely dreadful

Give Marte a Chance.

by westbrook on May 18, 2008 3:26 PM EDT   0 recs

I can appreciate somebody who doesn’t try and pull everything. That’s just good hitting by Votto.

And Cliff Lee again threw a fastball judge above the belt over the middle of the plate.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:26 PM EDT   0 recs

Still the O’s fault

by Roger Dorn on May 18, 2008 3:26 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

My sentences are not in English.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:26 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

yea – i coulda hit that. but votto’s 9th inning hit yesterday was perfect hitting.

Give Marte a Chance.

by westbrook on May 18, 2008 3:27 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I was blacked out….enlighten me? How so?

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:27 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

pitch was low and he just dropped his bat down there and flipped between 3B and LF

Give Marte a Chance.

by westbrook on May 18, 2008 3:43 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

does volquez lead ML in ERA yet?

Give Marte a Chance.

by westbrook on May 18, 2008 3:26 PM EDT   0 recs

ESPN is going to love airing these highlights.

It's the Arizona talking, really.

by RD74 on May 18, 2008 3:27 PM EDT   0 recs

It’s the first time they will show an Indians game this season.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:28 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

this is, bar none, the most depressing weekend of my 23 years

by Gradyforpresident on May 18, 2008 3:27 PM EDT   0 recs

You didn’t expect the Indians to not come back to .500, did you?

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:28 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

sadly the indians are probably only like 15% of my mood

by Gradyforpresident on May 18, 2008 3:30 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Only worry about what you can control. I’m as die-hard a fan as there is, and I’ve learned to make them 0% of my mood once I leave this computer.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:33 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Awesome-Johnny and Grady got hits!

It's the Arizona talking, really.

by RD74 on May 18, 2008 3:32 PM EDT   0 recs

And Carroll!

by Roger Dorn on May 18, 2008 3:32 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

On the bright side, Josh Beckett has given up 4 home runs today!
That’s gotta make you happy

It's the Arizona talking, really.

by RD74 on May 18, 2008 3:33 PM EDT   0 recs

Damn. Really?

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:34 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Braun has 2, Fielder and hardy 1 a piece.

It's the Arizona talking, really.

by RD74 on May 18, 2008 3:34 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Yet Boston is winning.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:34 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Of course MIL is still losing. But that’s not the point.

It's the Arizona talking, really.

by RD74 on May 18, 2008 3:35 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

There’s been 7 homeruns in that game. Some wind, perhaps?

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:36 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

We’re not done yet folks.

by supermarioelia on May 18, 2008 3:33 PM EDT   0 recs

Gutz pinch hitting for Dellooch. Like this

by Roger Dorn on May 18, 2008 3:33 PM EDT   0 recs

Wow Carroll

One day I'll get over to watch the Tribe play

by new zealand tribe fan on May 18, 2008 3:33 PM EDT   0 recs

Good timing – I just showed up. It’s going to feel really good when we win this game. I hope somebody for the Tribe trips BP while he’s walking to the dugout then fist pumps.

by pdxtribefan on May 18, 2008 3:34 PM EDT   0 recs

Dick Pole just pulled Affeldt

by Roger Dorn on May 18, 2008 3:34 PM EDT   0 recs

His mother could not have loved him when she gave him that name.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:35 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

With a name like that I can think of at least one other career opportunity he could have tried.

It's the Arizona talking, really.

by RD74 on May 18, 2008 3:36 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Seeing Dick Pole reminds me that Coutlangus is gone.

by SuddenSam on May 18, 2008 3:35 PM EDT   2 recs

recs have been rare today.

by supermarioelia on May 18, 2008 3:35 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

He must be around if Dick Pole is around.

I’m officially a 12 year old boy again.

The Lebron throwing the hand chalk in the air is annoying

by Roger Dorn on May 18, 2008 3:36 PM EDT   0 recs

Especially when it is just to rile up the fans in Boston.

by LGT Patrick on May 18, 2008 3:37 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Can someone explain why we took Astro out of the game again?

by supermarioelia on May 18, 2008 3:38 PM EDT   0 recs

What are you looking at

by Roger Dorn on May 18, 2008 3:38 PM EDT   0 recs

Strike three.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:38 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

that was just an amazing at bat

by Gradyforpresident on May 18, 2008 3:38 PM EDT   0 recs

Certainly got it over with quickly. Maybe he needs to make an urgent phone call

It's the Arizona talking, really.

by RD74 on May 18, 2008 3:39 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Gutz really really really sucks.

by supermarioelia on May 18, 2008 3:38 PM EDT   0 recs

Horrified at how much he’s regressed.

by maledicta on May 18, 2008 3:40 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Let’s go Victor
clap clap clap clap clap

by Fiddlesticks on May 18, 2008 3:38 PM EDT   0 recs

Hindsight is 20/20, but that probably should have been Garko batting.

by xrickx on May 18, 2008 3:39 PM EDT   0 recs

Get DOWN!

by Roger Dorn on May 18, 2008 3:40 PM EDT   0 recs

and Boogie!

by Fiddlesticks on May 18, 2008 3:40 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I was racking my brain trying to figure out what this meant. I get it now.

by supermarioelia on May 18, 2008 3:41 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Alright alright alright

by maledicta on May 18, 2008 3:40 PM EDT   0 recs
