[Erie Warrior]

Oriole's unis are top notch.

[ClevelandFanInNewYork]

Why is the game delayed?

[ClevelandFanInNewYork]

Duncan really stinks. Nice K with the bases juiced.

Earl Weaver ceremony. He looks like a hobbit.

[Dnthateonthepronk]

nice inning

[Erie Warrior]

Choo En Fuego!

[Dnthateonthepronk]

Too bad Jose Lopez isnt on fire. Couldnt even get him to 3rd

[Dnthateonthepronk]

Also dont know if anyone has seen but Carlos Lee so far is refusing to accept a trade to the Dodgers so even if we had the trade chips, no way he would accept one here, one would think.

[ClevelandFanInNewYork]

We need some runs. Tomlin is ready to fold any inning now.

Too bad Jose Lopez isnt on fire. Couldnt even get him to 3rd

Wrong time to complain...Lopez has 2 hits and 2 RBIs. OTOH, bitch loud and hard about Shelley "0 for 3 with 2 SO" Duncan. Still trying to figure out which one I want them to forget bringing back, Duncan or Cunningham. Maybe we can get a two-fer special? Make them both run behind the team bus...whichever one is closer when the bus gets to the airport gets to stay with the club...

Cunningham should not have contorted out of the way of that pitch. The only useful thing he can do at the plate is get HBP

His no-trade option is to the 14 largest markets (BOS, NY, LA, CHI, DC/BAL,TEX, SF/OAK, MIA and Philly) Cleveland is not part of it. FWIR.

I believe mostly it was because he didn't want to play in BOS or NY, but its interesting he wouldn't welcome a tour in LA. LA is a VERY nice place to live if you have money.

I fall asleep and Lopez gets 2 hits, im going back to bed

As for your other point, you know you cant make that many wholesale changes according to a certain writer from another website, Duncan, Cunningham, and Lopez are just too valuable and irreplacable.

[bookelly]

Love to see Marson locked in. Could we see Santana start splitting time at 1b, Dh, and C? I hope so.

[Erie Warrior]

The games in this series have been unbelievably slow.

Pretty sure 7 runs won't be enough.

I knew it was for 14 that included some of the highest, didnt know/read it was all of them.

[drum]

If you had Marson in the pool for Indians to be a homer away from the cycle today, please step forward.

[bookelly]

I have no idea if those are the teams, just the 14 biggest markets I could think of. I think maybe St. Louis is bigger than Miami, but you'd have to be a fool to not want to play baseball there. Those fans LOVE that team.

[Dnthateonthepronk]

cunningham needs to go

[Spanky]

16 hits and not a single one from Cunningham. That guy needed to be gone months ago.

He's the only guy other than Brantley who can play CF. He HAS to stay.

[bookelly]

Man...throw the guy a strike! At least give him one chance. Basterd.

[Am I Here Again?]

Whatthehell???? Kotchman gets hit AFTER a warning was issued when Kip got hit and...NO ONE from the O's gets tossed? So what WAS the warning for? All I ask for is fairness and consistency from umpires. Guess Aerosmith said it best: Dream On...

[TouchEmAllTime]

O's pick up Thome for two prospects...
