    They’ve sort of lived/died with the HR as of late… including the crazy series against the Angels.

    Rare to see Tucker run a bad route

    The only thing keeping Diaz from being a star and retiring with several hundred million dollars is playing time and a lack of walks.

    He now has 11 homers in 195 at bats as a rookie.

    Nice job by Brown. He didn’t give it back.

    I know Pena is having a rough year, and I'm not saying he shouldn't get some blame, but my word. How many times has he actually batted in the same spot in the order on back to back nights? Dude is moved every single game.

    He should improve his pitch selection somewhat with more experience and even if he doesn't improve he still will be above avg. I was a critic of Click, But he robbed the Indians and rebuilt the bullpen. Same kind of thing that Brown needs to do this year.

    Click was the GM and he gets the credit, but it was the Astros cross checker that found Yanier Diaz.

    At the time I was surprised the Indians traded him, he had high exit velocities.

    I called him for rookie of the year before the season started.
    I just had no idea dusty would be so stupid

    Whoever the cross checker is, he deserves a raise.
