    Unfortunately, JD Davis no longer leads MLB in WHIP.

    Not nearly as mentally weak as the mental midgets who live and die with each individual game.

    I am just basing it off of what i have seen to this point. It's not a guess. Our bullpen will get roasted in the playoffs. Our starters too. Of course I hope I'm wrong. Our pitching is putrid right now. Has been for a long while now.

    Awww whatever. This is a message board where fans get to vent if they feel when the team, coaching, etc. is not doing well. It's disappointing watching the team give the AL lead away and I'm not apologizing for venting about it.

    11-1 to the A's ? Come on. Have some damn pride. This is where Beltran needs to open his c*** washer and lead. He sure as hell is not doing it with the bat. Him, McCann and Verlander need to get these guys fired up and tell them losing to AL lead to a team you already eliminated is not acceptable for a team that has World Series aspirations. Now get out there in game 2 and take what's yours back. That title belongs in Houston. Not the fruit of the loom stain Cleveland.

    Lest we all forget that it's taken a historic 17 game winning streak to even catch us.

    I'm kind of glad. This ****'s not supposed to be easy. A little late season adversity and pressure might be good for them.

    Every single guy wearing a uniform in that dugout just needs to get their act together and get back to doing what they know they can do. These last 2 games have sucked all manner and flavor of ass, but it's not the end of the world. 3 weeks left, it's gonna be fun.

    Well, I'm pissed. But, whatever. Let's hope we bounce back in the evening game. It will at least cancel out that ugly catastrophe of a game.

    Of course it's a guess. Yeah, all of our starters are going to fail. And Devo. And Giles. That's an extremely large pile of horseshit.

    I think he's talking about the people who crown us World Series champs after each victory and a minor league team after each loss. I don't know- maybe having a kid in little league helped. I'd see parents lose their **** over every loss, and their kids looked like they wanted to commit suicide- just not worth it. I get angry during games when they screw up- but not too much, and it's forgotten the second the last out is hit.

    This is a healthy attitude, especially considering the nature of baseball and what an utter sh!tshow the state of the world is in right now. If sports is not a pleasant diversion, then screw it.

    I agree with you 100% in the end this is just a game but what I will say is that clutchfans is a place to vent when we need to. After loses and when our teams are playing like garbage I love to post it makes me feel better and so many on this forum are hilarious and their post make me laugh. This is therapy for me because before I was a member here ! Watch out !!!!!
