Indians Tidbits (2010 season)

In the interest of time, they might as well forfeit Valbuena's at bats. I've never seen a MLB player look so lost and overmatched at the plate...and he's our #7 hitter. If Acta insists on playing this turd, at least have the common sense to bat him ninth for chrissake's...the schmuck has a .275 OBP and has whiffed 30 times versus 13 hits in 92 at bats. Only on this team does that keep you in the starting lineup. :slappy:

How embarrassing for the Yankees. :slappy: Good to see fat ass get worked by a lineup of never has beens and never will be's...

this is the funniest part of this game

2-out RBI - T Crowe, A Kearns, R Branyan, M Grudzielanek 2, M LaPorta 2, L Marson 3, J Donald 2.

:slappy:

I think they had more 2 out RBIs in this game then they had all year

actually, this team scores an inordinate amount of runs with 2 outs. that is the one area where they actually excel, relatively speaking.

he finally pitches a start where he doesnt shit the bed

and the chicken coup chucks it away
:slappy:

Sipp was pitching really well, now he's been hammered his last two times out. Not good. Good to see "Gas Can" Lewis back with his straight-as-an-arrow fastball. :roll1:

They're still shitty. Fucking losers, every one of them. I've never really found myself rooting for a team of mine to lose, but I kind of hate most of these fuckers...

Now, as for the players I give a shit about, Hagadone has been promoted to Akron, they appear to be fast tracking him. Gotta think they want him to compete for a rotation spot next spring. Chisenhall homered in his 2nd game back from injury.

Also hearing rumblings (no linky) that Sizemore requires surgery on his knee and when they go in they will determine whether he needs microfracture surgury. He's turning into Ken Griffey Jr. Before our eyes...

the best thing you can do is start the carlos santana countdown. i was at the clippers game last night. he's the real deal. brantley is actually swinging with confidence in AAA and launched a moonraker dinger. that being said, the pitching in AAA leaves a lot to be desired.

Yeah, I'm pretty eager to see what he brings to the table. In fact, last time I remember being this pumped about somebody coming up through the system was Sizemore. I just hope he isn't infected with the suck virus so many of these scrubs seem to be carrying. Also, a part of me is hoping Sizemore is just shut down for the year and that leads to another shot for Brantley and maybe Weglarz later this summer. I have this sinking feeling the Grady of 2005-2008 is long gone and has been replaced by a fragile vase.

Here is the link on Grady. Does not sound good with a minimum of 6-8 weeks and if it's microfracture bye-bye for the season. Hello Brantley.
More Sizemore: The exact nature of Sizemore's surgery, or the length of time he'll need to recover, is still unknown. Soloff said Dr. Richard Steadman, who will perform the surgery, won't know until he begins the operation.

Soloff said the type of surgery Steadman does will depend on the stability of the cartilage in the knee. When asked if Sizemore could have microfracture surgery, which could end Sizemore's season, he said: "We'll have a specific update after the surgery. We're not ruling out anything. It will be an intra-operative decision."

"It's a big blow," Acta said. "I did not anticipate this coming out of spring training. Even though Grady was struggling, his speed never goes into a slump, he plays great defense and he has a presence on our club."

Trevor Crowe will continue to play center field and hit leadoff. Acta said Michael Brantley, who batted leadoff and played center field in September when Sizemore had surgery on his left elbow and left groin, will be called up later this year. Brantley is at Columbus.

Sizemore visited doctors in New York and Vail last week to get opinions on the knee. Soloff said the Indians consulted with doctors nationally and internationally to determine the best course of action for Sizemore's knee.
