Cliff Lee still pitches like Cliff Lee (9IP, 4H, 1R, 2BB, 6K)

Just like he did in that other week division.

Meh, I dunno. Never seen a week division.

Ya that’s right, I used to Anglo-Saxisms for bovine and equine excrement to discribe the relative merits of the AL Central and the NL West. Ain’t much to choose between the two of ’em.

In case it wasn’t obvious, the above are Sabathia’s 2008 numbers with the Indians and Brewers, respectively. Cliff is pitching in a much tougher park, but at least his first start suggests he can achieve similar results.

The AL Central is tougher than any NL division. The reason the teams appear weaker is because they don’t get to play other NL teams.

Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

by Jay on Aug 3, 2009 1:28 AM EDT up reply actions  

The AL Central is the weekest division in the AL and has two of the weekest teams in all of baseball and only one outside competitor for the WS Championship. The NL West has two equally week teams but has one sure WS competitor and maybe – given the strength of their pitching – two.

I just vurped. What’s going to happen when I see Victor in his BOS threads?

Awesome. I loved watching CC last year and I’m jazzed to see Cliff too.

No comment on Victor.

Yeah, I’ll definitely be watching Cliff Lee when I can. Not Victor though – I’m not a masochist.

exactly this.

The pregame interview with Victor is about to come on NESN…I’m bracing myself for it.

S…now they are talking about that 2007 series…

by APV on Aug 1, 2009 6:05 PM EDT up reply actions  

I was reading an ESPN article about it and put my hands on the screen and slowly uncovered things so I wouldn’t have to see his pic in a Sox cap. There wasn’t one.

Cliff had two hits as well

by Roger Dorn on Aug 1, 2009 4:40 PM EDT reply actions  

See, Wedge even ruins pitchers’ hitting. Lee had 2 hits in 35 PA under Eric Wedge; 2 hits in 4 PA playing for Charlie.

Charlie’s a hellava hitting coach, don’t ya know?

It’s a damn shame he ran himself out of town

by Roger Dorn on Aug 2, 2009 11:02 AM EDT up reply actions  

So whattya think – who’s a better manager, Charlie or Wedgie?

by mauichuck on Aug 2, 2009 10:44 PM EDT up reply actions  

It’s probably not fair for me to evaluate since I was still pretty young and unsophisticated when Charlie was manager. Can’t say I’d expect better results with Charlie and the 2009 Indians though

by Roger Dorn on Aug 2, 2009 11:28 PM EDT up reply actions  

Connie Mack, or John McGraw, or Al Lopez couldn’t manage this bunch to a winning record in ‘09. I’m interested to see if they can play above .450 ball for – an improvement over their first half – for the rest of the year. That would be a small victory.

I didn’t know you measured victory in small terms Chuck. I was pretty sure you were a “VICTORY OR DEATH” kind of guy.

I’m a veteran of dozens of bad to awful Indians seasons. Trust me, I’ll take any kinda victory

by mauichuck on Aug 5, 2009 12:49 AM EDT up reply actions  

At the time, I didn’t think that highly of Charlie, but I’d definitely take him over Wedge.

Though I also wasn't very old when Charlie was managing.
