I get the impression that posters are thinking CLE is afraid to face Cease. No team is afraid to face the Sox no matter who is on the mound.

Neither one provides what use to be the traditional role of a 2 hitter. The slow tired legs guy vs. the king of called 3rd strikes. If Robert gets on he is probably discouraged from stealing a base. I guess station to station baseball improves a teams health.

That's the only way to tell the difference from a quality hotdog. Bar S vs. Nathans - there is a big difference. What could be worse is eating one without a bun.

I like their chance of facing Bieber or Verlander than one of these guys.

I find it amusing the amount of injuries in baseball these days. It is a mystery.

Herman Franks use to do that with Sutter.

Wasn't the wisest move but part of me liked the gutsy move.

LOL! Trying to figure out the logic in this statement.

Part of the problem is they get them from the NL. Changing leagues is not easy especially for the Sox.

No accountability in the whole organization.

You have to see what they can do under different coaching where the changes need to be made. Those probably won't be big changes because they will be insiders from the mired in mediocrity organization. All coaches should be replaced. You can't have Boston and McEwing out there dealing with stupid base runners. I think Katz can be easily replaced. Tony and the batting coach are no brainers. You can't get rid of players just to rid them without equal or better replacements. Amazed that even bad pitching is expensive so you keep Gio. They also need to stay away from NL players.

There are no Grandals in their lineup.

Stink spreads. Hate to see my favorite guy out of the pen have a bad stint.

I like this pitcher for CLE. He doesn't waste time on the mound.

You'd think some of these hitters would figure that out on their own.

That's because Leury is hurt.

As injuries pile up in MLB I have to wonder if the farm systems start developing players to play multiple positions.

We have 2 announcers having to deal with a boring team and remember not to bash players and employer.

The reality will set in that he's in AA, just like Sosa who just started AAA, people will have kneejerk reactions that they are not very good. Sosa was facing a HOF pitcher tonight, Kudos for Tony for playing him since kids to need some of that pressure of a division race which isn't happening in the minors.

Not liken this now, one of the AAA pitchers or Kelly is gonna blow this.

Bases loaded - advantage pitcher

Did it even last 5 minutes?

They are the only team I can think of that the Sox own.

Funny that no one questioned this. I had it once as a teen and it was treated with ointment.

Another mentally weak performance by one of the most expensive pens in baseball. I see no reason to keep Katz either.
