Cleveland Indians (2017 Official Thread of CHOKE)

[tsteele316]

The Tribe being in first place at this point is a true testament to how god awful the AL Central is

bats have gone meh and our #4 and #5 starters are rocking 7+ ERAs a month+ into the season. Also Kluber struggling quite a bit and landing on the DL. Still at the top though.

let's also not forget that brantley is going to miss 4-5 games as well as getting days off more frequently, and kipnis missed the first 10-12 games or whatever as well.

Kipnis missed the first like 2 weeks and he has been awful since coming back as well (.170/.196/.189)

Toronto trotting out a guy who is 8-16 with a 4.61 ERA in his career tonight. Would be a good time for these slap dicks to score some runs.

Here's something funny

Jonathan Lucroy .214/.267/.333

Yan Gomes .219/.324/.328

Lucroy has managed to somehow be worse than Yan Gomes at the plate so far in 2017.

4 hits. This offense is a joke right now. Thank God Cookie is on fire.

 

[AKAK]

Yan Gomes. Bwahahahahaa.

 

[OHSportsFan]

The hero we needed

HOT STREAK

Gomes is batting .378 (14 for 37) in his past 14 games. Five of his 14 hits in that span have been for extra bases (four doubles, one homer).

Welp they got 2 in the top of the 1st, but Salad Bar's inconsistent ass just gave up 3 run HR in the bottom of the 1st. Starting pitching has been a wreck minus Carrassco.

 

[NFBuck]

Man, the starting pitching, aside from Cookie, has been almost a total shit show this year.

So much for the strength of a potential WS team

 

[buckeyemania11]

7 runs and a L to show for it

 

[NFBuck]

Fucking bums.

 

[NFBuck]

Well, so far both of last year's World Series teams suck balls.

Our limp dick bats are getting owned by the twins.

Making Ervin Santana look like Walter Johnson since 2012

 

[NFBuck]

Yan Gomes is probably the best hitter on this team right now. Wtf. Everyone else has been asleep.
