Ubaldo Jimenez gives up 8 runs as the Tribe go down 9-6 to the Angels
Posted on 15 Aug 2012 by Luke Lovekin.
Well yesterday I said it would depend on which Ubaldo showed up today as to what type of game we would see, a pitchers battle or a blow out. Today the Ubaldo Jimenez that showed up was the horrible one. Jimenez gave up 4 runs today before recording an out. I will get into it later but again today as has happened too many times this year Cleveland have given up a huge lead in the first innings a...

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...

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...

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. ...

Twins Welcome Back Denard Span
Posted on 1 Aug 2011 by Jonathan Fawkes.
The Twins were very quiet at the trade deadline because according to GM Bill Smith, “I'd rather make no deal than a bad deal.” While this is an inarguable point the Twins are a team with a surplus of outfielders with Delmon Young, Michael Cuddyer, Jason Kubel, Ben Revere and Denard Span. Luckily Cuddyer can play first while Justin Morneau is still rehabbing from his neck surgery and...

MLB Trade Deadline: Power Ranking All 30 Teams Post 2011 Deadline
Posted on 1 Aug 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
The non-waiver trading deadline has come and gone, but teams still have another month to add talent due to the waiver deadline. The waiver process goes like this. Each team, in reverse order of the overall standings this season, gets a chance to claim a player. If a claim is made, the original team has three options: 1. Let the player go without compensation 2. Take the player off waivers...

AJ Isn’t the Problem
Posted on 25 Jun 2011 by Brendan Sennott.
I was going to write today about how one of my favorite players of all-time, Roger Clemens scored a minor victory in his upcoming perjury trial over that fraud George Mitchell and his well investigated(yeah right) steroid report. However, I woke up this morning and saw a lot of copy bashing A.J. Burnett after he and the Yanks were beaten last night 4 to 2 by Ubaldo Jimenez ...

Responding to Criticism?
Posted on 2 Jun 2011 by Brett Pietrzak.
Yesterday, I made a post about the struggles of the Rockies and Ubaldo Jimenez. Ubaldo came back to pitch a four-hitter to win for the first time this season, Todd Helton homered and the Colorado Rockies defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 3-0 on Wednesday night, snapping a three-game losing streak. Jimenez struck out seven and walked none for the first time this season in his 10th start...

Home Sweet Home
Posted on 6 May 2011 by Daniel Lust.
The Giants were the story of the year in 2010. Behind a dominant pitching staff and some clutch hitting, San Francisco wowed the baseball world en route to their first World Series Title since 1954 (as the New York Giants). The commissioner's reward? A grueling first month schedule with 22 of 31 games on the road, having the fewest home games of any team in baseball over that span. After spendi...

Rockies off to a Fast Start without Ubaldo or Cargo
Posted on 4 May 2011 by Colin Teskey.
I'm happy to finally get the chance to cover such an exciting team like the Colorado Rockies! I began to follow the team closely during their remarkable run to the World Series as a wildcard team in 2007 and followed them closely last September. The Rockies splashed on to the scene last year featuring three outstanding young superstars in Ubaldo Jimenez, Carlos Gonzalez and Troy Tulowitzki. ...

Give the Angels a’s on Monday & Tuesday. Wednesday, not everything went Well(s)
Posted on 27 Apr 2011 by Bill Mahoney.
I think we can all agree, there is no one pitching better than our very own Jered Weaver. Weaver is locked in, throwing a complete game, 10 strikeout performance, Monday against the division rival Oakland A's. Weaver is 6-0, and can go 7-0 Saturday at Tampa Bay. Now, I've talked to a number of Angel fans recently, and they have him starting the all-star game (realistic), going 34-0 (not gonna h...
