vs. INDIANS, 8/16

[tntoriole]

Yes, during occasional innings, Ubaldo temporarily locates his release point.

No breaks tonite so far

You make your own breaks.

When you choose to send Miguel Gonzalez to AAA and start this worthless piece of crap who can't find the plate, you get what you deserve.

Yes I understand the financial reasons. Bit it is what it is. We sent down a guy who can find the plate, who has shown he can battle for 5 or 6 innings without his best stuff, for a guy with great "stuff" but erratic mechanics. A guy who can be great when everything is working but who is garbage when it isn't. As opposed to a warrior who makes the most out of what he has and usually does what it takes to keep his team in the game.

We get what we deserved.

Innings like this one are why Ubaldo is frustrating. He can be so dominant at times.

If he doesn't go past 6 innings tonight, there's really no way I'm going to be happy with his start, even if the O's take the lead. He's made basically zero progress this year, except for a brief set of starts before he hurt himself.

What is it with this team? They can go and clobber the snot out of teams like the Angels, yet get nearly swept by teams like the Astros. I've never understood it.

Well the Indians do have a crazy home record

Odds we score with the lead off double?

[tntoriole]

Well, lets see if we can do anything with this.

[Ori-Al]

Now a leadoff double.

[schittenden]

Odds we score with the lead off double?

3-1, I'd say.

Tampa wins the division

If he goes six innings and gives up 3 runs, I'll be just fine with that. He's put the team in a position to win. If they can't score 3 runs against Cleveland then they probably don't deserve to win. They've already had multiple chances.

Tampa wins the division

:rofl:

Way to wave at it Jonathan
