Cleveland Indians End of Season Game Thread

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Watching/reading you guys bickering is almost as pathetic as watching Grady trying to hit a breaking ball. Oh any by the way I'm kinda drunk, but it's cool because I had a friend once in the 4th grade.
 
I don't think you get the point, it's not that I have anything against alcohol or even drunk posting. I just got annoyed because he seems to do this every couple of days and his posts are just inane bullshit that really have nothing to do with anything. It's just him typing garbled words in all caps. Hell I'm a little bit drunk right now because I just got back home from the bars. I'm not on some anti drinking crusade here, I just got annoyed.

Truly pathetic.

Um... this isn't a new thing at all. It's not done as often on the road, but almost every MLB team uses their closer in the 9th inning in a tie game at home every time that situation arises.

Alright Mr. Know-it-all.

Hey, remember in April when we thought we were good and the thread was all about how we were going to steamroll the central? Now, it is just Doug and b00bie going back and forth and a drunk cmstophe babbling about nothing.

Fucking Indians. Assholes giving us some hope. At least the Browns know how to crush your hope instantly. They don't fuck around getting a bunch of fluke wins and then stomp on our hearts. GO BROWNIES!!!! WOOF WOOF WOOF!!!!

But that's my point. You should be saving your closer for when we go ahead in the top of the inning to save in the bottom when away. What did you think I meant?

Actually, I can't remember a game in the 9th or 10th playing away where the closer was used in a tie game. Find one if you can.

As we clearly seen and have seen a number of times, Perez cannot pitch in a tie game. Why do it then? Why not save him to be what he is? Maybe a closer or something.

You didn't specify that you were talking about road games. And you're still not specifically talking just about road games based on the lines in your latest post that I bolded.

It's used as a way to keep the closer fresh in between save situations.

If Acta were to never use Perez in a tie game at home the way he has, you'd be the 1st to bitch when he blows his next save because he hasn't pitched in over a week..

The opposing team had scored just FOUR RUNS off Chris Perez while the game was tied, heading into that game.

Don't want to sound like a 'know it all' or anything, but that's not very many runs.
 
Wow. Amazing.

You do NOT use your closer playing away in a tie game in the 9th or 10th inning. You should be confident that your team will score in the top of the inning so you have your closer available to save the game in the bottom of the inning. I also believe MOST members in here agree with me and didn't want to see Perez come into that tie game of an away game. It worked out real well, right?

I cannot believe I have to spell things out in detail in order for members to not pick apart every single word or phrase out of an entire post.

Amazing stuff.. really.

I swear; some are just going to argue with me for the sake of arguing. Some are going to defend Acta no matter what if it's me who is questioning Acta's decisions .... no matter what.
 
The only reason I ask is because... it's you... you're the rocket man.
 
I'm glad we keep giving this game back to them.
