    When my son was in second grade they had an art assignment to imagine themselves 100 years from now. He drew himself dead and buried underground. Truly an LOL moment.

    Sorry, this is not true. http://m.mlb.com/glossary/standard-stats/save

    In 1987 we only needed 8 wins over two series, and there was a break between the two. In 2017 we need 11 wins over 3 series and a break is less likely to happen. We need four starting pitchers if we are going to make a run at a World Championship.

    Chief, you made the initial assertion. The burden of proof is on you.

    Do you have any data to support your very speculative assertion?
  7. Nine of twelve
    Necessarily doing so is smart.

    I think Rocco took the long view today. This team has a very, very high likelihood of winning the AL Central and advancing to the postseason in that position. (538 has them at 99% to win the division.) His primary objective right now is to have his team as ready as possible to do well against either the Astros or the Yankees in their first series. I'm assuming that giving Berrios another day of rest was a higher priority to him than winning today's game. The same thinking applies to position players. We have numerous players for whom rest is highly desired, and this all factors in. I'm not necessarily defending his managing today and I'm not necessarily agreeing with his philosophy of how he wants to use players. But I think this is probably how he's looking at his decisions.

    Maybe, but they haven't locked up the WC yet. I suspect it will be too late for Cleveland by then anyway.

    I remember hearing Reusse tell a story about when he was covering the Twins during the Mauch years. He said he asked Mauch if he thought much about 1964. Apparently Mauch paused, then said, "Only every ****ing day."

    I'm not a moderator but I'll say that you were not called invalid. Your opinion may have been called invalid (and I'm not taking sides on that) but you yourself were not.

    I know **** happens, but ****, that's some bad ****.

    Way to go, Eddie! Don't give up, boys, this game is still right there to be had.

    I would guess that Francona is being second-guessed by Cleveland fans for not pulling Bieber sooner. He obviously wasn't his usual self.

    Great time for your first dinger, rook!

    It would be nice to credit him with a win. Let's see if we can get another man around the bases here.

    Brand new ball game!
  18. Nine of twelve
    That is the best way to avoid being tagged out in a rundown.

    I assume you are giving credit to Falvey and Levine for assembling the bullpen roster, specifically the trades made and trades not made. Right?
  20. Nine of twelve
    I just can't stand to listen to that station any more.

    After all is said and done, even he fulfilled a worthy role. He ate innings in a game his team won.

    The slam by Sano in their stadium counteracts the Santana slam in Target Field on Aug. 11. Now get after it tomorrow, boys, and sweep Cleveland out the door.
  23. Nine of twelve
    Wow, a double helping of chicken dinner. We have to loosen our belts now to make room for our expanding lead.
  24. Nine of twelve
    Iowa 18, Iowa State 17.

    If we win our division series and the wild card team wins the other one we'll have home field.
