It'd be Reinsdorf if we're following the movie plot

I hope so too, but I think his back issues means he’s done.

There was no way Luis was getting a strike there. Apparently everyone else knew it but him.

That's the craziest thing. He's not killing them at the plate, and he's not playing great D at third.

You know things are going well when TA dribbles one to the right side and it's a hit

Starting to wonder about some of the pitchers who left. Particularly Lynn.

Bummer in the bullpen like "why can't these assholes play infield defense like this for me?"

I am not that optimistic yet, but they do look a little better.

You trust these idiots to score 2nd and 3rd no outs?

Good setup by Naylor too, but yeah. Basically everything went perfectly for Cleveland.

The send there was fine, just was a very quick relay and good throw home. Looks like Yoan jammed his hand on Naylor's foot

I'd be ok keeping Clevinger in a vacuum if he pitches like this. I'd be even more ok if they trade him for some good pieces.

LOL Allen gave up a homer to a guy who hadn't homered in over a year. DFA him now and let us have him.

Walsh had thoracic outlet syndrome. No thanks. He's likely done.

Ride that hot streak Burger

They did all of this already and failed hard. Hahn and company can’t do it. It’s 100% futile. I don’t want to go though this again with these idiots.

You're asking them to do something they've proven they can't do. We've only ever seen them have success with a patchwork, hope for the best strategy, so they might as well go back to that until Jerry dies and we hopefully turn into the Dodgers lite with the next owner.

This is almost certainly true, and it does give Hahn some leeway. But not much. He didn't have to sign garbage with that money, and the minor leagues are AWFUL under him. Some league average replacement pieces would've gone a long way towards stabilizing the team.

No idea why any of you trust this organization to tank again. They definitively proved they can't do it. It sucks, but they're better off keeping their best, long-term controlled players and filling in the blanks with lightning in the bottle attempts and mid level free agents. Their drafting strategy seems to be improving, but they still need to revamp their player development. Luckily that can happen irrespective of how good or bad the MLB team is.

Kelly lookin not so sharp

You’re not getting anything for Lance Lynn.

I’d rather take the hot streak from Remillard right now with decent defense. Burger is hitting under .200 for 2 months.

That might’ve been off the top of wall and not gone, but still. Great play.

What is with this team and giving up homers

Actually, from what we've seen all year... hit it to anyone except Robert and Moncada if he's not in a wheelchair
