Cleveland Indians Thread of Malaise (2014 Season)

[kujirakira]

Watching the yankees play the indians is like watching somebody play their own aaa team.
How embarassing to get outran by a 40yo going 1.4 times the distance

Oh look, Masterson got shelled again.

Oh look, Masterson got shelled again.

They really need to shut him down for a few weeks. But then again... who else do we have? And what sucks is if the Indians fade before the trading deadline, who would trade for an injured Masterson having a terrible season?

Actually McCallister and Salazar are throwing well at AAA...either would be a better option right now. Move him to the bullpen and let some idiot team give him 5/75 next year at this point.

Words can't describe how awful Swisher is. Just really, really bad.

Dude can't even field a simple grounder anymore. I saw the error he made the other night, 6 year olds make that play. He is officially worthless.

Wish I'd said this (from comments section in PD article about Jeter):

Jeter's been playing so long that he remembers when the Indians were good.

Last year? That's more recent than Jeter being any good.

 

[Zippercat]

Good.....not just lucky, like last year.

I was just about to put the hammer down on Mr. O-H a couple days ago but then all of a sudden he started hitting the ball so I guess I will have to wait and see if this continues.

Dickerson was certainly a nice get. The Indians really lucked out on that one.

 

[TheStoicPaisano]

Assdribble, 2 out with RISP: 2-38, .195 OPS

2-39 now.

 

[Bucklion]

If they win tomorrow they are .500 at the break...and I expect they will be .500 at the end. No one piece in a trade would make this team not streaky and mediocre.

 

[NFBuck]

.500 at the break. Just a very "meh" season.
