  • thoughts on this season? to say the least i think they're going to blow. aside from their bullpen they have horrific starting pitching and a horrific offense. the ubaldo trade may go down as one of the worst trades in indians history(and that's saying something). my official prediction is 72-90 for the season

  • Well... I don't think they make the playoffs.

    Antonetti, I think could have made some moves in the offseason that could have helped on offense. As of right now, it looks like Duncan, Cabrera, & Santana will be the bulk of the offense other than those guys I'm not sold we have enough bats to get to the playoffs. I guess if the Choo Choo train gets it going they may have a shot?

    I'll say they finish 80-82 somewhere's in there...

  • Also, I think the pitching has the potential to be better this season - if Ubaldo can get back to where he was with the Rockies. They did add Lowe from Atlanta but I look at that as adding a body - he wasn't very good in the ATL.

  • I still hate that they gave up White and Pomeranz. I feel they grossly overpaid for Jimmenez.

  • glad to see the large improvement in our offense and glad to see manny acta still unwilling to allow masterson to finish off his masterpiece

    The only reason I would attend dollar dog night is to throw the F-ing thing onto the field. The Dolans can touch their ankles.

    i agree with you on that. please just sell the team. it's amazing how we have two of the worst owners in their respected sports in this city

    I can't stand the Dolans. They've been getting rid of any good player that might ask for some money. Ever since they owned the team they've traded any pitcher who's Cy Young worthy and any player who can hit. I'm surprised Asdrubal is still on the team. Just sell the damn team already because the fans deserve better
