Can we trade Ethier for some bullpen arms please?
My question is why did he leave in Torres in the 9th when he gave up a run and was facing Rizzo?
I love The Jake. Great place to watch a game.Going to the Cards-Tribe game tomorrow with Club seats.
More excited for the free food.
Cause he's a moron that prefers crappy veteran pitchers. We have Robles who has shown some promise but he won't use him.My question is why did he leave in Torres in the 9th when he gave up a run and was facing Rizzo?

Can someone remind me how the NY Mets won 11 in a row?

Fucking astros
Terry Collins just said that he had no choice but to bring Torres back for the 9th.
My night is complete.
F'in regular season Affeldt.
Fixed. For more trade bait value.Can we trade either Ethier or Puig for some bullpen arms please?
Giants signed Tommy Hanson to a minor league deal.

Yep, i would be pissed, this kind of shit only happens once every what 10 years or so? Maybe even longer then that since only 2 people have ever freaking done it.Francona is an asshole for not letting Kluber go back out there to try and break Clemens' and Wood's record.
seriously just spot start his next schedule start with a minor leaguer or something if you're worried about his arm
its not like the indians are going anywhere
Whoa wait a second the Rangers won today? We might actually win a 4 game series against the Royals!!
I don't like to curse but Carlos Torres is a piece of shit. Terry Collins is also a fucking dumbass for using Torres in the 8th always, dudes a fucking long man out of the pen for a AAA team.
http://m.mlb.com/cutfour/2015/05/14/124259522/eight-unbelievable-facts-from-corey-klubers-startKluber had all of his pitches working. He struck out six batters on his curve, five on his four-seam fastball, four on his sinker and three on his slider.
Kluber is just the 29th player in history to strike out 18-plus batters in a game. And the first since Ben Sheets did it on May 16, 2004.
His 18 strikeouts are more than five qualified pitchers have this whole season: Doug Fister, Kyle Gibson, Mike Pelfrey, Kyle Lobstein and Jeremy Guthrie.
Kluber entered the game ranked 14th in the Majors in strikeouts with 46. He is now tied for first with 64 with James Shields.
Kluber is one of only five different pitchers in baseball history to strike out 18 or more batters without surrendering a base-on-balls, joining Luis Tiant, Roger Clemens, Randy Johnson and Kerry Wood.
Kluber recorded 24 whiffs. 186 different pitchers have thrown at least 100 pitches this season while getting that many whiffs or fewer.
His 18 strikeouts are the second-most for a pitcher allowing one hit or less. Only Kerry Wood's record 20-strikeout game is ahead.
Kluber ties Randy Johnson for most strikeouts in a start going less than nine innings. Johnson also struck out 18 in eight innings when he faced the Rangers on Sept. 27, 1992.
Kluber's game score of 98 is also the highest-ever for a start going less than nine innings, topping Yu Darvish's score of 96 in 2013.
Thanks to Cody Allen's one strikeout in relief, the Cardinals matched their team record with 19 strikeouts. Of course, that other 19-strikeout game was a 20-inning affair with the Mets.
