Indians Tidbits (2009 season)

[buckeyemania11]

this game may turn into a 20-1 type beat down, Jackson is not going to last long meaning the pigeon coop is going to have to ride out most of the game

1 IP 6 H 5 R 5 ER BB

did you watch the 1st inning? i didn't think he pitched all that bad but had some tough luck.

Francisco flat out owns Sonnanstine.

You ain't lying.

 

[buckeyemania11]

the offense seems to be coming alive

however the pitching is still brutal

Did this game have a delay, or do the 19 runs scored so far account for how late the game is going?

delayed start due to rain

16 straight!

Also, I believe this classifies as the Indians first real "winning streak" of the year. 3 games.

They play again in about 11 hours.

Also- only 7.5 games back with 114 games to go...

8-9 with 5 homers. That's insane.

If only they can find a couple dependable starters in addition to Lee & Pavano then they might be able to make a little noise. That's a big if but I think the offense is pretty solid and the bullpen has been pitching fairly well as of late.

I guess there is some chatter about DeRosa being on the block for some pitching. The only problem is that I can't see any team giving up any quality, or other, pitching for him.

Sowers is going back into the starting rotation. I wonder how long that will last since they're basing it on his relief performance which he is probably better at them as a starter.

Also, finally some chatter about Rondon but not until later in the season.

Hafner back Monday I guess and Grady will probably go on the DL this Hafner can last until Monday. He has to play in three straight games in Columbus to prove himself :)

Well, they can pick up Jake Westbrook at the Trade deadline apparently... that's one.

Eh, nevermind.

Actually, they do expect Westbrook to join the starting rotation late in July after he makes a couple rehab starts. Well, I guess we will see how those rehab starts go.

Huff finally gets off to a good start and then the rain comes :(

17 straight!

First sweep of the year. 4 games. Wood makes quick work of closing the deal. 2-1 Tribe. Bullpen has been real solid the last 2 weeks.

Too bad Tampa Bay has to leave. Back to the real world. :(
