2019 Series #21 | Indians vs. Yankees | June 7th, 8th, and 9th

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
The sooner Plutko is no longer a part of this organization, the better.
 
Berto literally deserves an all-star spot this year.
 
Roberto has been amazing this year!! This is fun. I'm satisfied going 4-2 vs Twins and Yankees. Or maybe even 5-1...

Too soon?
 
Holy shit, Santana, what a awful error.
 
Nothing that hasn't been said repeatedly over the past 2 weeks, but it'd be really nice to see what Bobby Bradley could help do for this lineup. A handful of the guys in the lineup are showing great fight and the Indians have a super favorable schedule through July.

Martin and Bauers are the clear everyday weak links in the lineup right now. Let's see what some of the others guys can show given the opportunity
 
No walks vs 47 Yankees hitters. We knocked them out of 1st place too.

Also, this has been the best Tribe baseball of the year.
 
I want to believe so badly that this team could still make the playoffs and make some noise...

The bullpen is good, they've got some good young pitchers that are filling in, Clevenger is coming back soon...

They really just need a talent infusion in the hitting lineup, whether it's via trade or by promoting internally...
 
I know I'm beating this horse to death lately, but that lineup looked nice without Bauers in there today. It would look even nicer with Bobby Bradley as the full-time DH.

I swear, I'd still do something like:

vs. RHP
RF - Mercado
3B - Ramirez
SS - Lindor
1B - Santana
C - Perez
DH - Bradley
RF - Naquin
2B - Kipnis
CF - Martin

vs. LHP
CF - Mercado
3B - Ramirez
SS - Lindor
1B - Santana
LF - Luplow
DH - Bradley
C - Perez
2B - Kipnis
RF - Allen/Martin/Naquin
 
Martin is ass. Just call up Johnson too. Are we going to wait until he's 25 or something?

Johnson and Bradley won't be any worse than Bauers, Martin, and Kipnis.

they do seem to like to keep people in the minors until they are 25, 26, or 27ish... then they do well when they get a chance somewhere else and actually contribute
