Jumping the gun bro
still maad GOMES didn't bunt wtf he sucks
Lindor should've bunted in the 1st too! come on man
I want to like Gomes and I do but man he makes it hard he freakin blows with the stick
also why does he keep batting 7th he should be 8th tops damn it doesn't anyone learn anything he keeps coming on when we need a hit and fucking blows
if we can't beat Chris Young I'm sorry we deserve to revoke our first place status pronto
>chris young
>warm day
have fun with your 6 dingers cleveland
I swear van burkleo says the same nonsense everyday come on man we need a good hitting coach
carlos you freakin scrub
yes let's load the bases and not score love it
fucking trash game over
>LETTING CHRIS YOUNG INDUCE A GIDP
KEKKING
wtf tomlin throw strikes asshole
okay can you score now thanks
are any of you guys suicidal and homicidal by any chance?
Because someone has to stop this progressive bitch.
>>68478164
I can't stand her either and we have at least 8 more years of her until the naming rights are up
I shut off my radio when she's on
>>68478214
and the fucking arby's guy fuck him
Happy Lindor-versary, Tribebros
man this is bullshit they can't hit out of their ass with RISP
Poor duffy looked so pained playing with the wheelchair kids during that aweful fskc pregame segment.
Fucking giant pro tribe strike zone
Morales is a huge threat to steal
Go Indians
Hittin shoes on
okay score already it's freakin chris young
Thank you Carlos!
wow he gave up a dinger what a surprise
Slamtana!
Lindor!

nice "shortstop" you have there
never mind damn it Lindor!

Nice "record" you have against us, queer.
WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT WHIT
i like whitley
boy this team is unbelievably bad every scrub imaginable can hit a homer against us fuck you Tomlin you piece of shit
>>68478955
Surprised you know what a good Shortstop looks like with your sad excuse of one.
>>68479179
We play Boston enough to know what it looks like ;)
>>68479211
Right, Bogaerts is a good shortstop. I sort of feel sorry for you guys not having the pleasure of elite talent like Indians and BoSox do.
Ladies and gentleman your American League Rookie of the Year
>>68479277
Escobars defense is elite you retards. And his lead off batting in the playoffs is also elite
>>68479277
>caring about """"elite talent"""" more than things like postseason success
This is doyers tier. Superstars are overrated in a game like baseball.
>>68479303
That's not Tyler naquin
classic hip hop fireworks?
wew laddie
Gomes you freakin cocksucker do something right for once
>>68479156
You're trying way too hard to sound like a Whos fan.
oof poor Gomes he got pushed off the bag >>68479379
That's not on him, he's safe if his hand doesn't get pushed off
>>68479303
lel ok senpai
>>68479363
Naquin a shit
>>68479277
His batting is a shitshow sure, but he still does really well in the field.
>>68479333
>postseason success
That thing that's never going to happen for the Roylels because they'll never have that combination of overperformance and luck again
>>68479156
What as shit fan you are
>>68479453
Naquin hit 3 dingers in 3 days
when is fan voting going to be abolished
>>68479384
shut the fuck up if you watched this team you would know how many rookies and journeyman scrubs hit their first home runs this year against us
>>68479511
Merrifield has had only like 2 games where he hasnt been on base since he was called up.
Also he has hit 2 dingers in 2 days. Check m8 loser
>>68479553
Literally kill yourself >>68479568
2 dingers in 2 days
>>68479553
Newfriend, it's really not that bad. Rookies hitting dingers is normal, pitchers aren't familiar with them. The scrub gets lucky is all.
>>68479511
Naquin just got struck out by Chris "BP" Young
Dubs and Whit "2 Hit Whit" Merrifield has a 2 HR game
>>68479684
>reminder that whit hasn't played all year
Naquin has more games more hits more runs
>>68479615
Not at this rate. Drew Butera in the last series. Seattle had someone I believe. For how good this rotation is supposed to be it feels like way too much. The 8 and 9 hitters did a lot of damage on the last road trip too
Probably because they're actually decent this year I'm expecting way more out of them
>>68479684
He has a hit off of him already, he'll hit again.
>tfw you have to share a thread with meth addicts and their paranoid mood swings
Where's your tripfag, he's the only decent fan that doesn't act like a fucking child, his defense of Ventura notwithstanding.
>>68479553
I've been watching all season. It was a solo homerun which Tomlin is prone to giving up sometimes, but you're a fucking retard if you think that makes him shit and your negativity about anything that doesn't go right is annoying as shit.
Get a goddamn grip on yourself.
WEW
Someone should remake Omar Infante Roulette as Whit Merrifield Roulette pls
Time for Slamtana
sexy steal
nice get back to the base that was sexy RAJAI
holy shit it's the 5th already didn't realise
Yost doesn't trust Young to finish the fifth, nice to know your manager has faith in your ability lmao
>>68479729
Ill take my chances with Whit being a more productive player by the end of it all. He has already been so consistent. He also has a chance to shine defensively
>>68479742
Cry more tryhard clevelandfag
>>68479765
well I apologize then. still it irks me when dumb mistakes are made. I'll try to be more civil in the future
>>68479921
Are you retarded?
KIP
>>68479959
I mean, I'm not saying you gotta be sunshine all the time but it's a long game and a long season that's gonna have peaks and valleys.
Tomlin had more wins (8) than walks (7) going into tonight. Pretty good for a #5 starter.

Lindor would have made that play
>gomes
something really needs to be done about Gomes. Doubt he has any options for the minors
>>68480723
>bat is bad this season
He's still a god defensively
Indians are about to get the dingaling
>>68480833
hosmer almost juiced that jam sandwich out of here
>>68480773
but I mean it's beyond bad. He had an excuse last season with the knee but this year it's worse. I can't believe it's all bad luck cuz it's really bad. I wish Perez was healthy he'd be way better than Gimenez or even Adam Moore in Triple A would be better
>>68480870
fug cain
>warning track power
>>68480875
Why the fuck would you send the most important catcher on the team down to triple A
We don't have him for his bat considering he has 7 homers still and 27 rbis he still hits clutch he's the best defensive catcher we've had since sandy almost we will break out soon
Kauffman Stadium is final boss mode 800ft deep stadium

>morales up

>>68480924
Seattle did it but he also had options. Gomes just isn't figuring it out
>>68481043
That's because their catcher is a scrub
Gomes is a godly catcher he's only had 1 good year batting
Tomlin is elite
>>68480875
I think Gomes hasn't recovered from the knee desu
Little Cowboy!
>>68481115
He needs his either his knee drained or cleaned out
>yfw Naquin dingers to make up for the bad fielding
>>68481115
>>68481153
The groin contusion probably didn't help either.
I think they'll DL Gomes when Roberto Perez is ready, which he tweeted about getting closer today.
One more out pls, Tomlin
yes!
>roylels fans booing a pitcher throwing inside
Pottery
that'll do tomlin, that'll do
>>68481610
Time for bullpen to JUST
>Shaw warming
are you seriously kidding me?? I'm beyond words
>>68481635
have they been weak? im an apehoop fan mostly
>>68481697
Hit or miss. Bullpen is definitely something that should be addressed at the trade deadline.
Insurance run(s) pls
>>68481697
Shaw is very weak. Zmac is weak too. Other than that it's pretty goodo
come on Jose we need another run
1 for 6 tonight with RISP 1 for 14 this series
>>68481812
>Zmac is weak too
He was pretty damn good when he was a starter. He's been total pig shit since he's been in the bullpen.
>>68481951
we've both been pretty shit desu
Ugh, hope that 1 run holds up
1 for 7 and 1 for 15
>>68482011
With your bullpen? Not likely.
Tribe wants that off day ridiculous. It is a long ass road trip and they seem tired af.
>shaw
screeching

It was nice while it lasted

BLOWN THE FUCK OUT
FUCK
Okay we will win tomorrow
Jason Kippnis looks like Travis Kelce
enjoy first we aren't winning tomorrow either
Welp, maybe we can get some run support for Klubot.
Lol congrats on actually getting two games on your home turf, after getting swept in four (4) games away from home roylels.
>>68482554
The Indians had the game won, Shaw blew it, as usual. What's not to handle?
Also, as as far as WS wins goes, both teams have 2. So I don't know what you're talking about.
>>68482651
>all these cleveland fans coming out of the woodwork when they think they can win the division
>>68482945
You can't talk to these subhuman bandwagons, too much meth in the brain
>>68482954
Everybody makes predictions too early. Nobody knows what the division will look like at the end of July/early August. That's when it matters who is 5 games ahead and who is 2.
>>68482945
>both teams have 2
1948 was a long time ago senpai.
>>68482982
That's not fair to the Royal bros who aren't posting from a Compaq.
>>68483001
>my teams matter more than yours
Argument from a child
well after an offday we have series at home against the white sox and rays so hope we can sweep. Then on the road to detroit, atlanta and toronto
Holy moly the butts are for sure hurt ITT
Jeez guys take a loss without pissing yourselves about it
Cheese and crackers
>>68483053
shut up fag
>>68483053
I can't be upset about the outcome. Once I heard Shaw was on the mound I pretty much chalked it up to an L. That guy could spoil a 10 run lead and Francona would still keep him around.
>>68482936
lol mad as fuck
>>68483208
Exactly, no one is upset about this because it was inevitable. I'm a little optimistic that this'll be the nail in his coffin though, and Indians had the game until that so it'll go down as an L*.
You'd think Cleveland fans would be used to getting btfo by now
>>68483208
>tfw a Reds fan and reading Injuns fans bitching about bullpen
>>68483252
>4-2 in season series
>had one of those losses Shaw'd

Lol you're dumb
>>68483274
The bullpen is actually good, Shaw and ZMac are just horrible exceptions.
>>68482554
quit acting like a Warriors fan bruh
>>68483274
Not so much the entire bullpen, just one pitcher. I don't have a problem with the Indians bullpen as a whole, but the fact they don't have a good setup man does bother me. I'd like to see Shawn Armstrong or Otero there.
>>68483367
>your team will never have a bullpen as great as the Royals
Just give up forever
>>68483351
>expecting bandwagon to not act like bandwagon
I promise you they're the same cancer
>>68483436
It's pretty sad. Indians sweep last week and everything is about being excited about the team. Royals win first 2 and all they do is shitpost.
>>68483404
Right now I think they are, statistically. Have been for a couple years now.
>>68483516
They do this all the time. At least most of them do. There are some decent Royals posters, albeit few.
>>68483516
last series was pretty quiet and comfy if I remember right
>>68483516
When """their""" team wins. When they don't they disappear, just like Dubs """fans"""" in game 5. Fake and sad, but it's on them.
>>68483436
>>68483553
bunch of fucking faggots who don't even remember Gil Meche
>>68483580
I should qualify though it seems like there's only one, and the tripfag was bro-ish.
>>68483553
True, it's not all of them - just a few bad apples. I don't know why they act like we're Tigers fans who instigate shit.
>>68483570
Very comfy desu
>>68483606
Why remember a random reliever?
>he doesn't remember Paul Shuey
>>68483669
the fuck
Gil Meche was our "ace" before Greinke
>>68483669
Why do you even add that greentext, there's no way he can dispute it, you can pull any name out of your ass and say "He doesn't remember ----" and any argument he makes you can say "lol wikipedia". Srsly.
>>68483704
Okay, and what is he supposed to mean to me?
>>68483746
I'm saying there are a bunch of irritating Royals faggots bandwagoning that didn't give a shit to put up with the team when it sucked.
what the fuck did you think I was talking about?
ultimately it's a good problem to have but god damn they're annoying.
>>68483640
Are you implying that people on 4chan can actually represent real people? No Royals fans I know acts like this, just these dorks on here. Then again, I live in Greenwood, it's like the most perfect part of kc
>>68483791
Honestly I thought you were talking about Indiansfans not knowing Meche, but this makes the most sense.
>>68483791
This is so dumb, bandwagoning, of course they are, something awesome is happening in their city, the chiefs still fucking suck so they want to cheer for something good. Are you gonna watch every single game if your team is eating shit? Fucking no.
>>68483862
yeah, no
good times don't mean shit if you aren't willing to put up with the bad
>>68483791
I don't know. I'm an Indians fan. The only starter I really remember vividly is Jeff Suppan because Cleveland always had trouble against that douchebag.
>>68483862
However, people who don't live in Missouri or the surrounding states (if you're from here it's fine) don't fucking jump on our wagon. That's annoying.
>>68483906
Jeff Suppan was the pinnacle of the pitching on those late 90s-early 2000s suckitude teams. And then goes to St. Louis and becomes good for a while.
>>68483862
I do every Browns game and Indians game when they were bad. Honestly winning is weird and foreign and feels funny
>>68483862
>Are you gonna watch every single game if your team is eating shit?
>He doesn't watch at least 80% and doesn't follow 100%
>>68483899
You can only groan so long, bro. Sorry, you're wrong. My mom was a Royals fan growing up, from the 70's into the 90's and early 2000's, we went to games but we slowly stopped going in the later 2000's, we really just stopped watching until 2012, this is how everyone in KC is, at least 85% of them. I watch the chiefs if I can, but I'm not glued to the TV like I am with the royals.
>>68483948
For Cleveland, I was tricked into believing that Fausto Carmona (Roberto Hernandez) would be the future GOAT ace for the Tribe. Then they said Drew Pomeranz. Then Alex White. Then the Ubaldo trade, acquiring a "tall powerhouse" Zac Macallister. The Derek Lowe time. Before all of those was the Kevin Millwood mess. Watching CC and Cliff Lee go off to new horizons. Then Masterson was going to be "the guy", now it's Kluber.
Indians bros if you're still here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkbFJ-iLAI8
>>68483981
I like Johnny football he was fun to watch in college, sorry you guys have to deal with his probs. I still watch the chiefs but they're still the Chumps to everyone until they get a good season down.
>>68484073
To be fair, Ubaldo has only gotten worse. Unironically pitched 1/3 innings (one-third innings).
>>68484000
>Adds nothing constructive in rebuttal
>thinks he's clever with meme
Jokes on you bitch, I record and watch every Royals and Cubs game, I usually watch each game twice.
>>68484174
Is this bait?
>>68483810
I was only talking about fans on /sp/ though I think most fanbases on here are fine. There's Indians fans jumping on the bandwagon for gamethreads now and so far I think they haven't been faggots to other team's fans, but maybe that'll change.
>>68483981
It's a good problem to have a contending team and living and dying with it all season.
>>68484081
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2EcP269K0I
>>68484073
Millwood was great that one season, but blew chunks with everyone else. Had to be tough to see CC and Cliff go, especially when you've got Brantley and not much else to show.
>>68484201
Mad Dog over here watchs all the games.
>>68484218
Yeah, but it was probably karma for fucking over Montreal with the Bartolo Colon deal. The Tribe got Sizemore, Brandon Phillips, and Cliff Lee.
>>68483553
I'm quite fun when I don't shitpost and bait up the general. Work has worn me down recently so I haven't been nearly as active as I would like.
>>68484396
Same here. You're good people.
>>68484432
Gg injuns. See you tommorow.
>>68483208
I think Francona might finally be done with him
He's had 3 great years here time to release him
>>68483324
ZMAC is good you are fucking dilusional
He's been good
>>68483404
Why? So we can have the worst rotation in baseball? The royals starters average 5 innings a game
>>68484385
Dude we got the best deal out of colon, that was one of the best trades in Indians history
We got an amazing lefty an amazing outfielder and Phillips is really the best second baseman in baseball after we got rid of colon he back a journeyman
I wouldn't be surprised if the Indians try to sign Sizemore again because of his outfield talent and power
