$7 million (this year) down the tubes!

Lol @ Both Min and KC.......KC have lost 10 in a row, Maybe we get Santana back with KC picking up a big portion of his salary....lol

You may not win without hitting, but you CANT win without pitching.

Larry Dolan knew that when he first took over the Indians...and the Tribe has worked under that mantra ever since.

We may not win the division, but KC and Minnesota wont.

The ages of four members of the Twins rotation...

32
33
34
38

For future reference, three of them are FAs after the season. And Berrios is a FA after next season.

Not a bad idea, actually. I can't imagine he would cost much.

Toss them former top-100 prospect, Jake Bauers.

the beat goes on - tigers up 4-0 on kc after 3

 

[cliffdawg]

Watching Whitesoxs beating up the twins again......My question is would you prefer the Sox’s to continue to bury them in the standing or the twins help us stay close to the Sox’s ...My preference is to bury the Twins and KC, and just worry about 1 Team

KC got the Sox’s for 4 games Starting tomorrow......lol

I wonder who the last team was that was really good for a while or even won the ws w/o decent pitching - for all the power of the big red machine, their collective pitching staff, tho lacking big names, was top 10 in the majors during their run --- if it's slow at the homestead tonight perhaps i'll do some searching

Would you trade Brayan Rocchio for Carlos Santana?

My dream guy would be Nelson Cruz, if the twins continue to fall, and put Reyes in RF and Naylor at first

Soon we not have a choice, but I agree - one team to worry about is preferable.

The Twins are already buried.

They will improve, even have some kind of hot streak. But over the long haul, their pitching won't hold up.

They have the worst record in baseball, and, along with Detroit, are the farthest back of all MLB teams.

In addition, half the games they have played have been against the kind of teams a contender figures to pad its win total. They can't get those games back.

Are you insinuating that both Donaldson and Cruz will be available for the Tribe come the trade deadline? They have he excess prospects headed for Rule V Wonder if they find the money to pull the trigger...
