Indians Tidbits (2009 season)

Now the Clippers closer is starting to follow the guys from the major-league team

Speaking of known commodities... since Herges is 39, I don't see him catching lightning in a bottle anytime soon.

Months?

It's low-A ball... probably his first full season.

Yeah, he's year(s) off, not months.

But, since we're on the Prospect pipe dream kick... Chuck Lofgren has a 1.80 ERA in 2 starts at Akron... [/runs away from the jeers for hyping another soft tossing overrated lefty]

 

[AKAK]

Thing about Lofgren is, the problem is in his head... and his Mom was sick, and a lot of things, but actually has okay stuff.. and is still pretty young, he actually could get it together, but, I think the brass will be very cautious with him, though.

Months?

It's low-A ball... probably his first full season.

The only reason I said months was in reference to the way the major-league team's bullpen was functioning. Hell, you might as well start the kit off and give him some experience

bases loaded with no outs against Sidney Ponson and they get 1 run

grady makes up for it though with a 3 run HR in the next inning

 

[NFBuck]

Really like the way Victor and Pronk are hitting...that's a big relief. Grady hit #5...up 5-1 in the 4th.

 

[NFBuck]

Laffey pitching well again. Now, if he doesn't nose-dive like last summer...

 

[buckeyemania11]

Laffey goes 7 only allowing 1, nice

too bad no lead is safe with this garbage bullpen, 6-2 2 on no out in the top of the 8th for KC against Joe Smith

And then there's the bullpen...

 

[buckeyemania11]

make that 6-4 with no outs

what a fucking joke

 

[NFBuck]

Different season, same pathetic bullpen. Kobayashi should be payed in hot dogs.

 

[buckeyemania11]

and here comes Jensen Lewis to wreck the day

 

[buckeyemania11]

my god its a miracle, they get the inning ending double play

Kerry Wood actually gets a chance to save a game

Well, that's the one plus this year, if they can get through the middle relief, at least we have a reliable closer.

Vmart helps by cranking a 2 run home run, great start for him
