What terrible timing to have your starting pitcher hit by a fastball in the head. Our bullpen is already worn out and this was an important game. Now they have to try to sweep Texas, not gonna happen.

Even if Humber didn't get hit it's hard to assume he'd keep the Indians under 2 runs. Yet again the offense disappeared at an unfortunate time.

This is only a tease. Please don't waste anymore time thinking they will win anything.

I remember last season saying in September that the Indians were not a bad club and Frank scoffed at that notion, saying that the Indians were awful. Well, that awful team just kicked your teams ass....again!

The Sox have/had a chance at the division but once again their record within their own division is a losing one, including a 9-13 record against the Twins and Royals. In the words of "Da Coach" ...."You gotta control your division"

They've won 3 out of 10 games against the Sox this season.

Strange definition of "kicked your team's ass...again."

It's pretty standard Elmhurst Steve Math.

That's true. I'd forgotten the Brand Formula.

I remember last season when your dumbass said the Twins were going to be a dynasty.

I remember last season the Indians were awful. This season they are mediocre at best, kinda like the Sox. Keep rooting for that 3rd place Cubs finish there, Elmhurst Dillweed.

That strikeout Gordon Beckham had with the BASES LOADED in the bottom 8th last night definitely hurt. Had it not been for the fact that the AL Champion Rangers are starting 2 lefties in this series, Beckham would likely be sitting this weekend. Then again, even though Omar Vizquel went 2-for-4 starting at third base last night, Vizquel hadn't been much better than Beckham and Brent Morel respectively. Vizquel came into last night's game in a 2 for 22 funk and whose batting average wasn't much higher than Beckham.

Despite the fact he hasn't been too good vs. lefties this season, I've got to think Beckham will be back in there tonight vs. the Rangers' Matt Harrison and Sunday vs. Derek Holland, but depending on what happens tonight, Beckham might be sitting vs. righty Alexi Ugando tomorrow.

I'm not as down on Beckham as others may be in the wake of last night's 0-for-4 with 2 K's, and I'm not about to give up on him by any stretch. His offense definitely needs a lot of work in the offseason. I would like him to become a lot more patient at the plate, take more pitches and shorten his swing which still appears long, according to what an NL scout noticed in a story the Trib's Mark Gonzales wrote as part of the postgame wrap of last night's loss. Check this out...

Steve, do you ever get tired of sounding like an idiot ?

Steve from Elmhurst, I am going to give you some advice. Open the windows when you paint.
