I'm not a huge OCab fan, and it would be nice to give Phelps some time, but a day after he saves the day against the Tigers...

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 1:57 pm

Scherzer hasn't been great in his past 3 starts (an ERA over 6) but I still expect runs to be at a premium (for us at least)

Why is this not on television?

Probably because everyone preseason expected the Tribe to suck and nobody would notice if they didn't make it onto the tube for a few day games because nobody would be watching anyway.

Probably true, too. It's just that the people who would be on a board like this one are exactly the same type of people who WOULD notice that they are not on, regardless of hwo good they are.

I think there are around 6 games not televised this year, mostly afternoon games during the week like this.

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:11 pm

Wooooo!!! 1-0

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:15 pm

2 out hitting is back baby

2 triples this inning, 3XBH

that spells bad times for Maximilian

by **andrew6586** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:16 pm

Following it on my phone. Nice to get some two out hitting again. When was the last time we had two triples in one inning?

by **Mr. X** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:17 pm

Choo put a nice short stroke on that one. Good to see.

by **TribeinLA** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:18 pm

Hey....the bats are back. At least for 2 games. Two triples and a double in an inning!

by **FortheWin** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:18 pm

Aww Laporta ending all the fun.

by **TribeinLA** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:19 pm

Choo blasted that one to one of the deeper areas of the park.

Now back to LaPorta on the 15th.

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:22 pm

Strikes please

by **FortheWin** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:23 pm

Throw Strikes mitch!

by **Am I Here Again?** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:23 pm

Guess Mitch didn't get the memo that he's NOT supposed to give the game right back to them. Double play ball, please.

by **skatingtripods** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:23 pm

I wonder if we see LaPorta get sent down, if he has options left, to activate Hafner. Could roll with Santana every day at 1B and Marson catching. I'd like to see this.

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:26 pm

Son of a whore

Lucky Tigers sluts

by **FortheWin** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:26 pm

4 Strikes 8 balls.....

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:27 pm

Throw a strike

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:27 pm

Booooooooooooooo

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:29 pm

Talbot < pestilence

by **FortheWin** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:29 pm

GET A OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by **TribeinLA** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:30 pm

Musical chairs out on the bases. Jesus, Talbot...having a RedSox flashback?

Damn helluva throw...just too far up line.

by **FortheWin** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:33 pm

WOOOOOOOO NICE PLAY ASDRUBAL!

by **Jumbo** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:33 pm

Whew. Nice save to get out of it only giving up 2.

by **Mr. X** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:33 pm

Droooobs that was slick as hell for the DP

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:34 pm

Indians gets some luck there.

scores tied after 1

by **TribeinLA** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:34 pm

Droobs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wish those of you not watching game could have seen that play.

by **motherscratcher** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:34 pm

according to the gamecast, Talbot is getting hose by the ump, who appears to have no strike zone at all. There are balls literaly right down the middle getting called balls, according to the game tracker.

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:36 pm

Even our outs are line drives. Sherzer should get hammered today

by **FortheWin** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:43 pm

I have a feeling this will be a short outing by Mitch

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:43 pm

Jammy Tiger twats

I hate this game.

That's one of the details I haven't been able to find on-line yet: a nice, concise list of players with options. However I did find info on-line that will let you figure it out. ;-) ;) :wink:

Matt has 3 years in the majors plus 2 more in the minors. According to Baseball America a major league player has three option years. This is Matt's third year. Perhaps you would like to offer packing his bags to him?

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:44 pm

Strike 1 STRIKE 111111!!!!!!!!!!!

by **andrew6586** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:45 pm

Is this umpire squeezing Talbot at all? It looks like he is throwing some close strikes that aren't being called.

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:46 pm

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooo

A little.

by **WiscTribeFan** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:48 pm

When did Peralta become a hitter again? .294/.353/.844. 9 dingers and 34 RBI?

Where was this the last few years?

How have the outs been for Talbot? Have they been hard hit balls or are they lazy fly balls? If they are hitting him hard we may be burning through some bullpen innings soon.

by **Jumbo** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 2:57 pm

The 1-0 pitch to Brantley would've been called a ball on Talbot.

Fair enough. You are now back on a conditional prediction basis. ;-) ;) :wink:

by **Mr. X** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 3:07 pm

Talbot not getting squeezed. He's off the plate all day. Seem to be settling down now.

by **TribeinLA** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 3:14 pm

Talbot wishes he was getting squeezed.

by **TribeinLA** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 3:24 pm

well phuuuuuuck.

by **FortheWin** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 3:24 pm

Really? Peralta hitting a HR?
