    Way to make up for the run you cost us Carlos.
  2. karcherd
    No he won't, Castro will move to second.
  3. karcherd
    And now we will get to see the great defense of Margot in LF.
  4. karcherd
    At least Margot won't be pinch hitting tonight. But why is he pinch running for Lee, he has no speed left.
  5. karcherd
    Maybe before he pops off about his teammates, Correa needs to clean up his game.

    I have no problem with the Irvin move, but I am not sure about bringing Topa back at this point in the season.
  7. karcherd
    The next desperation move, activate Topa when he hasn't pitched all year. So is he going to be used in high leverage in his first appearance. I hope I am wrong but I don't know how you can reasonably expect anything out of him at this point. And it's not like he has a stellar track record other than one good year. But at least Irvin is gone.
  8. karcherd
    My point is, his public comments seems like he is throwing players under the bus to a degree.
  9. karcherd
    We don't who they were talking about, but Rocco was pretty direct that there are players not executing the game plan for the day.
  10. karcherd
    Santana is leading the team with 22 HR and 65 RBi's, I don't think those numbers for a supposed contending team are anything to brag about. And he is second on the team in AB's with the next closest over 100 AB's less. Of course he is leading the team and we are about to be eliminated from the playoffs. Can we at least try for quality rather than average production. And Castro should be playing 3 to 4 days a week, he is being overvalued because he plays a lot of positions, his production has fallen off dramatically the second half of the season. A contending team should not have Willi Castro leading in AB's, oh wait maybe we aren't a contending team.

    Actually Lewis probably had some the best AB's on the team last night other than Correa. So I am not sure why he would be called out. Julien and Lee aren't even playing, so it would be interesting to know who he was referring to. And of course Rocco piled on because his coaching staff can do no wrong and it has to be the players. This is why Rocco is not a good manager for a younger team, he wants them to self police themselves and choose their pre game preparation. Younger players need some direction. And yes the players do have to take responsibility as well but at some point the coaching staff has to evaluate their approach if you aren't getting the desired results, that is management 101.

    What pitcher is hurt, that is the only way Alcala can be brought back up.
  13. karcherd
    Margot's effort on the flyball in the second inning was pathetic. You are playing for your season and he doesn't go max effort after it, he shouldn't play for the rest of the year for that. It was a catchable ball and helped change the tone of the game.
  14. karcherd
    That ball would have landed in front of Margot if he was still in the game.
  15. karcherd
    He has actually had better AB's tonight, going with the pitch more. Want more hits, but he hasn't been trying to pull everything.
  16. karcherd
    We sent Alcala down for this, he at least has better stuff.
  17. karcherd
    Every reliever we face Morneau makes them sound like they are all the next Mariano Rivera. Other teams are hitting these guys, maybe not all the Cleveland pitchers but come on quit making excuses. Yes pitchers have more movement but batters are also seeing it more and adjusting to it. Morneau makes it sound like the batters don't even have a chance against every pitcher.
  18. karcherd
    Yes let's resign Santana, he has been so clutch this month.
  19. karcherd
    Margot cost us at least three runs and he was supposed to be the backup in CF. This front office can not identify talent at all.
  20. karcherd
    No rush on that one Margot, take your time, it's not like we are playing for the playoffs.
  21. karcherd
    Wallner
  22. karcherd
    He couldn't beat out Cade Povich and his 5.59 era for the fifth starter for a playoff team. A team that has two other starters out injured. But yeah we will fix him like every other pitcher from Misfit Island.
  23. karcherd
    Are you talking about the spending from last year where they spent $11m on Gallo. While ownership deserves their share of blame, this front office has shown a spotty track record on utilizing their resources in an efficient manner. Should the payroll be at $200 just for the sake of it, I would prefer we get a front office that knows how to run a major league franchise and give them the resources needed.
  24. karcherd
    They have no regular players other than Correa and Buxton when healthy. And Santana because he is a switch hitter. Every other player on the roster is a role player and they think that they can just put them in a matchup or position and they will be successful because it looks good on paper.
  25. karcherd
    Nothing says we are playing for the playoffs like having Margot leadoff. How can you take this team seriously when they won't even put their 9 best players on the field.
