Series #22 - Indians @ Minnesota

[DJTJ]

He hits the homer, but all at bat he's dropping his back shoulder way more than he was at the beginning of the season, and it seems like he's intentionally doing it to get under balls, which will help with his power, but will cause him to be "off" in terms of timing.

I haven't been keeping up outside of weekend games. Has this been a consistent thing anyone else has been noticing? I've seen a lot about how he's become a pull hitter.

go to 2:31 in the video. Look how level his shoulders are.

Santana with 3 hits and a walk tonight.

Has he remembered how to put bat on ball?

Swept a double header on a road . Starting to come together.

Good to see The Grim Reliever get through an inning unscathed. Build that confidence back up! Let's sweep these bitches tomorrow!

 

[Snarly]

Lonnie 10 homers now.... The guy is coming into his own finally and this is great to see. I always hoped he would figure it out.

Dog shit team takes over first place.

October dreams not as dashed as previously imagined.

Glad they finally regained first place so you can comment again.

Don't you fucking dare scare away the few posters with your shit posting. Way to contribute. I elect you for Mayor.

I've noticed a trend and the question must be asked: are the Indians better without Michael Brantley? Discuss

Looking ahead for a second to the team's upcoming, 4 game series vs. Baltimore.

In June (16 games), the Orioles are allowing 7.75 runs/game. They have allowed 5+ runs in 15 of 16 games. Hopefully the bats stay hot through the week taking us into another important series vs. Minnesota next weekend.

There would likely be more if we didn't have to deal with the constant negativity shtick of others.

This guy gets a free pass in his mind for a constant mocking shtick and beating of the chest posts.

LOL at him making a post after complaining about the post(s). We're in his head.

I guess that's nature.

Good thing the Tribe showed up vs the now 2nd place Twins. When the Indians were just 1 game over, we knew it'll be the last time with this talent pool, and Tito pressing buttons. Hopefully the inconsistent play is over. Also this series of good play brought out more posters and that's always a plus.

Don't let AZ scare you away guys, you post what you fucking want.

I love this section.

Probably not. But I'm wondering how much life he has left in the tank.

Santana with 3 hits and a walk tonight.

Has he remembered how to put bat on ball?

Highly unlikely.

I was joking, playing off the trend of ESPN asking this question anytime a team looks good despite a key player being out.
