Not with all the new additions. The Tribe is looking at about 93-94 wins this season. Of course you will have to add the post-season wins as well.

Detroit is going to win going away. White Sox don't have enough hitting, Cleveland doesn't have any pitching.

All 3 of those guys are still scratching their heads trying to figure out how they wound up in Cleveland.

Didn't you sign that clown Swisher too?

Yup. Swisher and Brett Myers as well. The word around Cleveland is that these guys want to play for Terry Francona and that is why they are all signing. Hey I'm all for trying retreads. A couple of them might be ok. Bourn was one hell of a pickup though!!

Bourn is a good deal at that price, mostly because his agent Boras misread the market on what he's worth.

Franco will make a difference but those other 4 guys?  Might have a better chance with Moe, Larry, Curly and Shemp out there.

Some of the four will surely not make the team, but some surely will. Hopefully.  8)

The last two years they were at the top til the middle/end of June. They just go back to reality after the all star break.  This team didnt need a manager that lets his team have a meltdown in the second half.

This time last year, the computer experts said the White Sox would be lucky to win 70 games.  I guess removing the wart that became Ozzie Guillen didn't count.

So the fact they were alive until the final week of the season proves that baseball and horse racing have a lot of common - anything can happen.

Unless you're talking about the Cubs.

Boras is an ass. Id rather not have his players and let them go elsewhere.

How long till he cries collusion?

Not much in the tank left for Myers.

Bourn is a good player.

   As I'll always be a "Chicago guy" at heart and I dont want to tork off my sister that is a unbelievable die-hard White Sox fan, I favor the South Siders BUT if not them I would Love To See The Indians Win!   Have had a soft spot for them ever since I was a kid visiting my grandfather in Ohio - lived south of Cleveland in Bedford and some town called NORTHFIELD....ever hear of it?   thumbsup

Speaking of the Tribe, as in the Tribe in "Major League" the movie, here's a little known fact some might find interesting.....Star Tom Berenger, the son of a worker at the Chicago Sun Times, lived in south suburban Park Forest as a kid and graduated Rich East High School in 1967, a year before I did from the same place.....he rarely references Park Forest and I can't say I blame him!   Its not what it used to be.....

He really is a defensive player at a defensive position.

Hes hardly an elite player but he is an above avg major leaguer.

I like defense at C 2B SS and CF so he could always play for my team.

The cellar now belongs to the Twins.  Target Field is a great outdoor ballpark but it's like the Twins lost their mojo once they left the Metrodome.

The Indians will have to fight the Royals for third place.

Tigers will self destruct like they did in the World Series. That being said, they will battle the Tribe for first place until they self-destruct. Plus Cimags loves them. thumbsdown

White Sox will continue to suck. thumbsdown

Kansas City will ne ver win as long as Mr. Earl is a fan. thumbsdown

Minnesota? thumbsdown

I must have misread the odds. Tribe is now 40-1 to win the AL. I strongly suggest if any of you like money, bet the Tribe at 40-1. 80-1 to win it all. A few c-notes on each and you have Christmas vacation paid for. 8)

The Indians are improved but not enough to catch the Tigers. Cleveland lacks the starting staff needed to win.Detroit may have the best rotation in baseball,also Victor Martinez will be back. The Indians picked up that stiff Swisher because he's a  hometown boy, who really needs to play 1st base.The Indians may contend til all star break but will fade with that pitching staff.

Post by: Jeremy on February 14, 2013, 09:22:49 PM
The key to the pitching staff will be if they have a coach that can keep Masterson's and Ubaldo's mechanics working properly.
