He'd also start giving players bonuses for getting arrested for DUI.

I want to be pissed at Angel Hernandez, but that snap-back cap is just so adorable.

Don't know if this had been posted but the HOF recently put up over 5000 old Scouting Reports up online

heh I changed it. I'm gonna post that one in the cfb thread
Maybe he's just holding out for more money? He is saving his best for his contract year.
Scott Kazmir with 6 K's through 3 innings. It's throwback day in Cleveland.

Good to see Colon back too.
He looks so different from when he was here. It's been what, 10 years?

Yep, the trade for Lee Stevens and 3 minor leaguers* with the Expos happened 11 years ago

who just so happened to be Brandon Phillips, Cliff Lee and Grady Sizemore
And now 8 k's through 5 for Kazmir

The later of the two are Indians that I bought jersey's of!
So the question is, with my birthday around the corner, which player do I get a jersey of now?

Official statement in regards to last night A's "HR."
"By rule the decision to reverse the call is at the sole decision of the crew chief, Angel Hernandez's opinion. It was not clear and convincing evidence to overturn the decisiion on the field. It was a Judgement call and as such, it stands as final. However, given what we saw, we recognize that an Improper call was made. Perfection is an impossible standard in any endevor but our goal is to always get the calls right."
So, yeah. About time we got a break. ;D

I said that Cleveland would score a ton of runs. It's about time.

Dude, they are so fun to watch. Haha.
Also, we need to do a Tribe game soon! So we both should get a new jersey
I'm thinking Swisher or Masterson.amishpriest99

Loved the shot he hit the other day.

Can't miss the spit there, man, C'mon!
It's been unreal. A lot of teams would kill for the power we have. It's just the pitching which has stabilized in this streak. It's not going to stay 'this' good, but hopefully it stays pretty solid!

Dat development. Montero could be below the Cirillo line by the end of tomorrow.

Shutout gone, but now 10 k's through 6.
Turrible.

I may be an Indians fan, but yeah...Angel Hernandez is an idiot.
It's harder to find an ump who isn't an idiot.
Nope. They all look like utter shit. Cause that is what they are and all.
Jack Z needs to go go go go go!
Yeah he can take a walk. Better for him to just stand at the plate than swing the bat though.

Delusional? I don't even know what took him so long to contemplate moving Gordon to the 3 spot. Gordon and Butler are their best hitters.

Man, I should have went to the Indians game. Gorgeous day outside and I don't work til later tonight. Would have been pretty tired after it was done, but would have been fun.

What choice do they have?
It took Alex Gordon 5 seasons in the big leagues before he started to not suck.
That blown HR call reminds me of this shit from 2011: http://bats.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/08/18/the-home-run-that-never-left-the-park/
Basically KC hit a double that the umps ruled a HR even after review because they didn't read the ground rules

Chipper Jones killing Angel Hernandez on the Twitter.
If eznark didn't let me borrow his 'fangraphs for retards' book, I'd still be stuck in the stone-age!
Ask him to borrow it!
Exactly.
People like Gordon ... Michael Saunders ... are why I'm afraid to just give up on Smoak / Montero / Ackley. (The latter 2 to a much lesser extent than Smoak).
I'm afraid that suddenly in year 5-6 of MLB time they'll just start mashing the ball while the M's sign Morales to an aging 6 year deal in Smoak's place.
Smoak sure is running out of time / patience though I would HAVE to imagine. I also don't think Smoak will in his dreams be able to do what Gordon currently does at the plate.
I hope Oakland keeps losing against the M's. Least it's Iwakuma tomorrow.

MLB Tonight is destroying Angel Hernandez in a "polite way".
So when is Angel going to be fired?
So when is Angel going to be fired?
huh, as long as i can add and subtract correctly, with the indians' win the AL central as a whole is actually the most games above .500 in the majors. (at 11 more wins than losses) next best i see is the AL east at 10 more wins than losses.
none of the teams are really blowing anyone away, but they aren't completely sucking either, I mean the worst team right now the White Sox are still only 4 games under .500

Umpires can't be fired or demoted to the minors. They are basically there until they decide to quit.
