I'm 24 for the record.

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by **FortheWin** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:21 pm

Thats ok! Only give up that one run

by **Symbolic47** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:21 pm

Sigh. Fucking Durbin. What a god damn bum.

by **skatingtripods** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:21 pm

I know 7 runs should be enough, but you cannot stop adding on in this ballpark. Tribe needs to tack on a few more.

by **Jumbo** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:22 pm

That was almost really really bad.

by **skatingtripods** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:22 pm

Detroit has serious bullpen issues.

by **Crooked River** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:23 pm

Did anybody else get the feeling that Jimenez was trying to be too cute out there tonight? Seriously, dude, challenge people with your fastball. Too many splitters and sliders mixed in there. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if we see Marson catch him the next time around.

Bunch of fuckin snot nosed kids around here.

by **Symbolic47** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:24 pm

Man I dont have a good feeling about this one......Luckily the Rangers pen isnt to hot. But if I remember correctly they added a couple arms at the deadline.

Durbin against RH's. .340 average.

by **Crooked River** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:24 pm

Nice job there by Durbin. Could have been much worse.

I think the Rangers crushes the fastball, so mixing up his pitches was a good idea. He just didn't locate well.

by **tastybrownies** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:25 pm

I'm not entirely sure. I mean the guy definitely has the stuff to strike people out and throws anywhere from 93-98. With 98 go right at them and throw it by.

Good work by Durbin. It can't be easy for him right now. He's pitched just five times since the All-Star Break. Tough for a guy with 71, 59, and 64 appearances the last three years.

To all you smart asses bitching about Durbin, this from Bastian via Twitter:

Durbin has worked with 22 inherited runners this year and only 3 have scored.

(before tonight)

Sorry Gramps (mooning)

by **Symbolic47** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:26 pm

How do think Acta manages the pen tonight? My guess-

7th- Raffy Perez
8th- Pestano
9th- Rage

Thats how he should do it. IMO

He owned one of those bikes with the huge front wheel, a top hat, and a monocle.

Good find. I wont lie. Im biased against Durbin. I just dont like him, and sometimes that clouds my judgement. :hide:

He just needs to get laid.

Go bang your dental assistant. Maybe your receptionist. Just nitrous oxide a woman in the office and do your drilling.

Might ease your daily tension.

Joe Smith's gotta get in there somewhere. He's been off the hook the whole year.

by **Symbolic47** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:31 pm

Yea going to Smith would obviously be a good move for the 7th. Cant go wrong with either the way they have been performing. I think well see Raffy at least to face Hamilton though.

I am married so you're definitely right about that.

But your suggestions...bad ideas. All of them...very bad ideas.

by **andrew6586** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:31 pm

I think he brings in Rafey for Hamilton and Smith for the next two.

Hey having different generations is good for perspective. I always appreciate input from people who have been watching baseball since before I was born haha. The year of my birth was one of the worst seasons in franchise history!

by **skatingtripods** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:38 pm

For those with STO, do any of you actually look, look, and then look again?

My hubby was born the last time the Tribe won the World Series. Just like Mark Twain (Haley's Comet), I think they won't win again until he checks out. Sorry to make you wait guys, but I'd rather have Mr. Wonderful around than a Tribe WS. Most days. ;-) ;) :wink:

Not gonna lie, when I read this I laughed and my wife instinctively knew and asked: "Are you on that message board again?"

by **Symbolic47** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:44 pm

Nice inning Smith. He is death against LH's. Good move by Acta there to bring him in.

by **Am I Here Again?** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 11:45 pm
