Wins and home runs are good, but the Orioles aren’t O “K”
Posted on 21 Jul 2012 by Brendan Keelan.
The Orioles despite winning tonight's game versus the Indians by a score of 3-1, have still been horrific with how many times they strikeout. Three of their everyday players are on pace to have near one hundred and fifty strikeouts by the end of the season (Chris Davis-90, Mark Reynolds-83, and Wilson Betemit-78). In tonights game, Oriole batters struck out nine times against Indians pitching, ...

Jays beat Indians 11-9
Posted on 15 Jul 2012 by Amanda Tallon.
The Jays’ first two games of the second half really have been a tale of two teams; one with solid pitching, but no offense, and one with explosive offense and considerably shaky pitching. On Friday night, Ricky Romero showed that he’s getting a lot closer to being the Romero of old. Although be missed up in the strike zone more than a handful of times, his only mistake was the lone run of t...

Offense is bad, pitching staff is getting worse
Posted on 28 Jun 2012 by Brendan Keelan.
During last season's matchups between the Baltimore Orioles and the Cleveland Indians, the Indians took five of seven games, and the two games they lost were at Camden Yards. Unfortunately the home field advantage did not help the O's this time because now the Indians, with the help of the O's below par performance in both batting and pitching, snap a five game losing streak with a 7-2 victory....

From The Stretch: AL All-Star Picks
Posted on 15 Jun 2012 by Connor Callaghan.
Considering how close we're getting to the 2012 All-Star game, I figured it was time to make a case for all those I'm picking to represent the American League(National League will come later). Let's just jump right in: Catcher, Mike Napoli, Rangers: Other than Joe Mauer's ability to hit for contact, no one behind the plate is more productive at the plate than Napoli. Runner up, Joe Mauer, Twi...

Southpaw struggles continue for Cleveland
Posted on 5 Jun 2012 by Luke Lovekin.
Cleveland going down to the Twins could be perceived as injury issues. It’s hard to expect any team to win missing their 3,4 and 5 hitters on the Disabled List, but I think there are two deeper issues troubling the tribe here in early June. These really need to be addressed for the Indians, if we are to have any chance of catching the red hot White Sox. The Twins are a struggling team this se...

Searching for answers, Angels shake up roster (They still lost to Cleveland)
Posted on 27 Apr 2012 by Bill Mahoney.
The Angels finally solved one of their outfield problems when they released Bobby Abreu today. It's an inglorious ending for a guy who gave the Angels fans many a rush with his clutch hitting, and stolen bases. He's not retiring, so he'll be picked up quickly. I was told the Halos recalled Mike Trout, who his hitting better than .400 in SLC. If that is true about Trout, I do have some questi...

Choo Injury Signals End of Playoff Hopes
Posted on 24 Aug 2011 by Bradley Ross.
The Cleveland Indians playoff hopes are, for all intents and purposes, gone. They now stand at 63-64 (6.5 games back in the Division). What's worse is Shin Soo-Choo was injured in the game today. There is no news on the extent of the injury, but this is the last thing the Indians needed. If Choo has to go back on the Disabled List, Cleveland's playoff chances are shot. 6.5 games back do...

Posted on 21 Aug 2011 by Steve Folsom.
Troy Tulowitzki is putting up monster numbers since the All-Star break for the Colorado Rockies. Tulowitzki is one of the reasons why fans are still coming out to the ballpark – even with the Rockies being out of contention in the NL West. Sunday was the 6th time Coors Field has been sold out this season when 49,083 fans showed up to see The Rockies beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-3. ...

Tribe Wins 3 of 4, 1.5 Back
Posted on 19 Aug 2011 by Bradley Ross.
The Indians are on a roll recently. Their record might not fully reflect it but they are playing about as well as any team in the majors. In their last 15 games (since August 1st) they are 9-6. Consider that 10 of those 15 games were against the 3 division leaders in the American League and the first 7 of those were on the road against the 2 toughest of those leaders. The Indians h...

Indians Win 2 Straight Series, 2.5 Back
Posted on 14 Aug 2011 by Bradley Ross.
The Indians have won 2 straight series, one of which was against Detroit. In doing so, they have moved from 4 games back to 2.5 games back in the span of a week, a very sizable jump. What helped is winning 2 out of 3 against the Tigers. I knew that would be a key series going in and the team showed up. Starting pitching, hitting, bullpen, it was all there. They carried that momentum...

Bullpen Blows Golden Opportunities as Tribe Goes 3-4
Posted on 7 Aug 2011 by Bradley Ross.
If games ended after the 7th inning, the Indians would be on fire. Unfortunately they don't and you need to have a bullpen. The hitting has finally been solid and the starters have been quite good. The bullpen has been the culprit this week and so the Indians have blown multiple leads. This is the 2nd road trip that was ruined by a bad bullpen. Still, it could be worse. The India...

Let’s Make a Deal – Colorado Rockies Edition
Posted on 6 Aug 2011 by Steve Folsom.
You might have heard that the Colorado Rockies traded their best pitcher, Ubaldo Jimenez, last week to the Cleveland Indians. You also might have heard a variety of opinions from expert analysts around the nation as to whether it was a good deal. You want to know the truth? The truth is that this trade (much like all trades involving prospects) can't be properly judged for a few years. ...
