I don't care who you are, its baseball fundamentals, I don't care who is up you bunt the base runner over to 3rd. It's common sense. Not only that but why do you bring in your closer when it's a tie ball game and he's been giving up runs left and right?


the by the book baseball move is to use your closer in that situation. however, when you look at borowski's splits, he's far, far worse in non-save situations, so, he really shouldn't be an option.

Yep, and everybody except the guy calling the shots can see that. I'm about to wash my hands of this team until Wedge is ousted. The fact that Shelton still has a job is absurd too. Tonight just confirms that this season is over. Damn shame too because it started out so well.

I wouldn't care if he brought in a closer, but our closer has been giving up runs left and right. I think Hamilton on the radio said that he's given up as many runs as appearances he's made. That right there should throw up a RED FLAG

like i said, you have to look past the superficial part of it. borowski is 32 of 36 in save situations, which is one of the best rates in the league. yet, coming into last week, his era in save situations was below 3.00, 2.87 i do believe.

yet, look at his overall era. that shows you right there that he is useless in non-save situations. him giving up runs left and right as of late isn't the red flag. the red flag is the 4.5 months of trends that is painfully obvious yet ignored by the doltbag assclown that manages this team.

...I'd be rich.:slappy:

If I were and Indians baserunner, I'd just have somebody bring me out a lawnchair and a hot dog, because you sure as shit ain't goin' nowhere.

every opposing manager should intentionally walk the first two indians hitters of each inning. cleveland will never score.

If You Can Call This Team a Professional Baseball Team

This Is The Most Pathetic Group Of Bums Ive Ever Personally Seen The Indians Field In My Lifetime

This Is More Embarassing Than Last Season's Bullpen Blunders

Even If We Did Bunt The Runner Over, The Next 2 Hitters Would Had Struck Out Anyway
