Per Castro, Reyes may be heading for season ending elbow surgery and Laffey is out 4-6.
Also, I didn’t realize our team doctor was Dr. Chicken Dance. Mario, when do you graduate? This guy probably needs some help.
Il faut d'abord durer.
About to link to that. The news is bleak. The Indians won’t be back to a “normal” rotation it seems until near the All-Star break. That is really bad. The Indians really need to put together an improbable winning stretch now…because the season might really be over in two weeks.
Another guy with seemingly mild acute elbow pain, then suddenly surgery. I demand an inquest into this stuff.

I’m dropping Carmona. I’m not dealing with this guy anymore. I don’t know what I was thinking.

Weird. Victor didn’t throw someone out.

Martinez if you can get a bounty?

Westbrook: out of these probables who do you like as my Carmona replacement?
Pavano
Andrew Miller
Aaron Cook
Sean Marshall

I am pretty sick of this..
I think we should leave Lee and Pavano in the rotation and then do what Washington did and bring up young arms (Rondon, Huff, Cruz, Lofgren) and just let them pitch even if there bad and maybe bring up Sarloos I think he will be decent.
Garko isn’t going to bring back much right now. We needed a decent 200 ABs like Broussard had before he was dealt. Right now, Garko wouldn’t bring back anything more than a bullpen arm.
I am going to reveal my enormous baseball-uniform ignorance.
Are they wearing shorter pants when they wear high socks?
During my brief stint in baseball, we had short pants, tall socks, and tall stirrups.
(I was a shortstop! Couldn’t hit, and couldn’t throw, but I was the only kid on the team who could field. Shortly thereafter I developed a freakish fear of the ball and spent my entire time on the field flinching.)
So weird, literally seconds before i switched back to this screen and your comment appeared, I was watching video of the random bombings in NYC that have been taking place over the past four years, part of which was surveillance video of the Army recruitment center bombing and featured a large cloud of white smoke.
I believe in Carl Pavano.
After the 5th inning, they should “accidentally” turn on the sprinklers, lose the key, and take the rest of the night off.

There’s only two out in the 4th and Indians pitchers have thrown 129 pitches – impressive

I am disappointed to learn that you do not keep all LGT conversations in your mind forever, constantly rerunning their brilliance and wit in your head as a sort of background music for your day-to-day life.
I recommend it. It doesn’t have the impact of 1 or 2, but those are hard to beat. It’s definitely better than the third one.
Plus, it’s got Christian Bale.
I believe in Carl Pavano.
I’m just afraid I’ll be watching it and will find myself only able to think about the audio from that time Christian Bale flipped out at that lighting guy. “Ohhh gooooood.”
Just back from the gym, 5-0 when I left see I haven’t missed anything of note?

Melvin: “Looks like we made the right move in trading LaPorta. Dude’s numbers stink”
Macha: “But that buffoon manager of theirs plays him like 1 or 2 X a week, how’s he supposed to get into a groove?”
Melvin: “Really? That’s really dense.”
Macha: “Yep, I watch all of their games on my iphone in the dugout”
Melvin: “No wonder we’re in first place”
Macha: “What?”
Melvin: “Speaking of Wedge and PT, think we can get Marte cheap?”
Macha: “Who?”
Melvin: “Exactly, nobody knows who he is because he doesn’t play”
FE WEE
Just pretend that the pitchers in this game were in reverse and it was anoerher 06 BS for fausto.

Sowers’ Beta Unit doesn’t suck. How long can we keep Sowers fighting Xur and the Ko-Dan Armada on the Frontier?

I walked in and turned on the game right before the walk to make it 10-8. Was afraid to post in fear of the jinx
I brought up Gameday at the same time. I had left my computer when it was 7-0. Wow!
If you believe it's just a game, you're also probably wondering why Santa keeps skipping your house every year.

Congrats guys. I’ve been watching from afar through your many bullpen torch jobs. You deserved this one.
"I didn't realize his velocity was that high," said Macha, noting that radar readings aren't flashed during exhibition games.
For some reason my toilet is flushing counterclockwise now.

Wait, is this the first time this appeared as a nickname? I love it.

is -0.952 WPA the new record? I think I remember Wickman’s… um… “indiscretion” in 2006(?) to be around -.900?
Picked a helluva night to finally stop watching the Tribe.
