Can the train keep rolling, or will Jiminez run us off the track? I can't remember if he tends to stink at home and win on the road, or vice versa...

I don't think even he can keep that straight anymore!

Haven't seen a DH lead-off a game in like forever

And like that, Ubaldo is off to a GREAT start.

Acta may as well pull Ubaldo now. He has that "Pat Shurmur" Deer in the headlights look on his face already.

Is Fausto able to pitch tonight? Might need long long relief

I was thinking the same thing. Although with all the name changes and new faces, you could probably say "Izzy Iskowitz" is coming out of the 'pen and I doubt anyone would raise an eyebrow.

Piece of cake first inning

[justmebd]

I was about to go to bed, glad I stayed up a few extra minutes. Good Job, Brantley!!

Guess I missed our "comeback" attempt. Walked away from the laptop towards the middle of the 6th just to grab a couple things to pack...and came back just in time for highlights. Thanks to Ubaldo, though, I'm saved the trouble of trying to find internet for the next couple of days just so I can keep a win streak going. I'm pretty sure my longest winning streak is......one.

You, sir, need to be commended...or pitied. You pick.

One positive: No matter how Fauxberto Carnandez pitches tomorrow it CAN'T be worse than Ubaldo's first, right?

You've been a Tribe fan long enough to know the answer to this question.

Indian Fever, be a believer!

I'll go with pitied.

Actually, full disclosure, I spent most of the time watching the Roseanne roast I DVR'd. I just had to stay up to post my front page recap when the game was over. I usually watch more intently, but the game was over by the top of the second. And definitely over after the bottom of the fourth.

I guess if that's the bar many can clear it.

I don't care what the guy calls himself, as soon as I see him pouring sweat from every pore and throwing erratically as hell, I'll know exactly who he is.

Here's hoping the 3 years he aged a few months ago help him mature into something other than what he's always been.
