I think they want 27, now.
Outright ownership, no asterisks like those 1916 Giants
Take this series plus two more games and they get it.
Browns is the Browns
... there goes Joe Thomas, the best there ever was in this game.

A couple fun facts:
The last time the Indians lost a game Tomlin started, Tomlin had a bizarre pitching line:
IP...R....H......BB...SO
4....0....0.......0.....5
That's it. No hits, no walks, no runs.
The last Indians pitcher to lose - Corey Kluber.

quote by water: You can't trust that Kluber guy. Yeah and Kluber got rocked for 2 Earned Runs in only 7 2/3 innings. The Red Sox shelled him for 4 hits and a walk.

"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Man Diaz has zero power at this level. He's been pretty bad as of late, i rather just keep urshela at 3rd
Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday. -John Wayne

Man Diaz has zero power at this level. He's been pretty bad as of late, i rather just keep urshela at 3rd I can think of 3 other former Indians who were "spray hitters" as young players - George Hendrick started out as one and I once saw him nearly get one to the bleachers in old Muny Stadium. I also saw him hit several to the far reaches of the upper deck in LF at Muny. Joe Carter, when he first came up, didn't elevate the ball much and hit the ball to the right side a lot. He turned into a near HOF ballplayer (IMO). Jim Thome, when he first came up, hit everything to LF. He didn't turn into a prodigious power-guy until he was in the league for over 2 years. It takes time - look at Yandy's physique - he is going to hit for power. I'd bet on it. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. But I've seen his type before.

You have no evidence that Thome abused PED's. as a Personal trainer, and bodybuilder, I can spot someone manipulating hormones a mile away. He may not have abused to the extent of others during the era, but he def. had help, maybe initially, but he went from 200lbs to 255-260.

I don't want to argue in here, but man, did you ever notice how much larger his head grew over the years? LOL I always thought his physique and head were the poster child of what roids can do.

lead, I see you are as positive and objective on the Tribe as you are w/the Cavs.  Dude, I have been reading your posts the last few days and if I just read them in a vacuum, I would have guessed the Tribe had lost the majority of the last 21. LOL........

man. that was a big chance there....running out of chances here...need some breaks to go our way... I actually wouldn't be mad if they lost, it would take all the pressure off the team and they can just play ball the rest of the way.

Still got the bottom of the ninth to try. Don't give up yet!
WE DON'T NEED A QB BEFORE WE GET A LINE THAT CAN PROTECT HIM

Never give up on this team!  Down 2-1 in the 9th .... now tied with 2 outs ..... and a man on 2nd ..... Going to extras. Whew. Back to even, with a chance to extend the streak ...... stay tuned Tribe fans.
