Dunn Kills Indians Again

Excuse me, I’m just really bummed by this one.

Carmona Walkless: Finally, Carmona doesn’t walk a batter.

He did a good job today, he was getting ahead, getting quick at bats. Finally doesn’t walk a guy, good job by Fausto today.

The bullpen situation just kinda festered into a pile of crap today.

Rafael Perez was used early against the lefties. Taking his services away from later in the game.

If you are going to committee the bullpen, save your left hander for later. Use Breslow for chrissakes.

I don’t know, whatever. Kobayashi didn’t have this stuff together today.

Frisco Kid: Just.. Kid is awesome.

3-4 with a Stolen Base and at what was at the time, the go-ahead jack.

He is really starting to fit in and he is just what this offense needed.

Garko has started to get it going again. He went 2-4 with the first run knocked in. He is just on a upswing.

Everyone from Garko up had the hits. Grady stole two bags as well.

Brandon Phillips: I will do this from time to time and I have a big problem with Brandon Phillips.

I’m now starting to see why Mark Shapiro and Eric Wedge decided to trade this loser. He constantly is showboating and showing up our pitching staff. Raising his arms as he gets an RBI like it was a game winning hit, and then showboating it up at first.

I really hope someone gives him a little warning shot that puts him on his ass. I’m getting stick of his antics, and I’m glad he isn’t on our team. He is a cocky and arrogant ass.

With that..

Tomorrow for just the third time ever, the ERA leaders in the AL and NL will meet up in a game. Edison Volquez for the Reds, and Cliff Lee for the Tribe. Turn it around Clifford!

[BOXSCORE]

Next Week: Closer By Committee

Eric Wedge has decided to go with a closer by Committee for the next week or so, until Joe Borowski returns from the disabled list.

I really don’t have much to say, other than why not just give it to Kobayashi?

He came in and did the job.

This stuff never works, it is always disastrous, and Eric Wedge will soon learn that.
