Holy Shit, going by Run Differential, KC may be the worst baseball team ever.


Allegedly.

In the battle for sole ownership of Fifth in RD, who has a bigger impact, Manny Machado or Brad Hand?

Hopefully Hand and Climer. The Indians bullpen is absolutely atrocious.

If Miller comes back healthy (I'm a bit skeptical), and these additions do well, the Indians will be dangerous in the second half.

The fact that I had to google Kendrick Perkins should tell you all you need to know about how I feel about that.

Seriously. I was mixing him up with Glen Perkins at first.

The 2003 Tigers were -337. Their pythag win% is .304 versus Detroit's .305.

The Tigers pitching staff was bad, especially in the 2nd half (6.7 runs per game!)

Love this trade, i've got mixed feelings about Mejia, he absolutely could end up being a stud, but I get the strange feeling hes a guy who lights AA/AAA on fire but never does more than average at the ML level.

The fact that we only gave up Mejia is huge too, saves the rest of the farm system.

Hand is an ace reliever who still is under control 2 years after this season (with club option in year 3)

Climber isnt even eligible for arbitration until 2020, getting him as well is a very nice addition, especially if he builds on the solid year hes having.

Good move for the Indians ... You're never getting anything for nothing, San Diego is stacking prospects. Mejia is gonna be real good, but your time is now!!

This could be a race!


Being in attendance for that 43rd win against the Twins AA squad is still in my Top 5 sporting events.

What's the Climber guys story?

I see he played AAA in 15, but didn't make MLB until this year. That's weird.

Nice series the Twins are having against the worst team in the majors. :wank:

Yeah.

We'll always have July 5th to the 15th.

Skip over this Indians fans.


What's everybody's wish list in deadline sales?


Mine is Fiers, Iglesias(utility), Liriano (middle relief), Hicks(backup catcher)and Greene. Just can't see anyone trading much to add Castellanos as a DH.
