You're the OP boss my man. Much respect mate.

I gave Alex Avila one more at bat than he actually has, but don't tell anyone.

Faggot

...

...

Trevor Bauer is an autistic sped who probably has a trip on this board

>yfw Miles Bridges came back

Brad would fuck up Francona

The fuck is this guys problem?

...

...

What the fuck is up with the crowd?

Why isn't it illegal to execute people who heckle?

And what kind of defective autist thinks people paid shit tons of money just so they could listen to some sperg scream at the top of his lungs for three hours like one of those special ed kids who lost their tard handler?

>Warnings

Somebody get this hothead outta here

>crying as much as Cabrera

>warnings in the first inning

This is going to end well.

wait...what the hell happened?

Tito would heem Brad

Stop being pissy about miggy
I know wtf

...

...

Whatever happens on the field is irrelevant to the behavior of the autist.

Let's get those bats going Tribe

...

Hammy needs to cool it on the home run call trigger finger. Almost as bad as Underwood right now

Yeah, he got me amped up for a second, then he started trailing off and it was just a long fly ball.

I think Norris is going to get ding donged on unfortunately

>austin jackson

kek

>Mike Ilitch said that as long as he is alive, money will not be a problem for the Tigers
>Ilitch is now dead

What did he mean by this?

based brad playing hard to get

Also, happy birthday

Anibal Sanchez making like 18 million dollars is a major problem

I've always said that once his supply of infant blood runs out, he will die and the dirty oven pizza money will go away.

Illitch family still owns the tigers and cardboard pizza is still popular

I think he meant his corpse will be re animated as soon as the technology is developed and the pizza empire will fund many eries runs

It only matterd if his children share the same passion in sports as he does. In many cases, the next of kin have other plans. Or just look at the team as another income source.

Jones is a beast

sorry i'm late boyos

go tiggies

Well his hair was never alive, so

In any case, I would welcome the cubs way of doing it anyway. Our farm system has to be the worst in MLB and has been for as long as I can remember. Splashing the cash has made us relevant, but we choke still.

True, polymers don't die.

It's not the worst. Just look at the pitching prospects. Manning is going to be a #2 behind Fulmer in about 2-3 years.

>manning

literally who

The first round draft pick from last year

alright boys let's hit some dingers

Matt Manning. Drafted in June. 6-6, 220. Has a fastball that sits around 96-97, good changeup and curve. I think he throws a slider too, but I can't remember. He's projected 80 on the scale.

How are you enjoying your off day, Yan?

Norris is our future 2 I think

I am enjoying this Detroit optimism from a tribal native

Hey, call it like it is. I may be a Tribe fan, but you can't ignore that it was a great pickup for the future. Fulmer is the real deal, Norris is solid, Manning is the next big thing. Buck Farmer is still shit, though.

How does somebody from Brazil end up following the Indians?

These threads are always pretty civil.

Now when the royals were good, that is a different story.

...

This is all assuming JV actually retires or declines of which he will never do either so...

A true Tiger legend

The pen is still somehow better than last year

Why is KC basically the south?

>tfw I had Sanchez on my keeper team and sold high in September to some mook who wanted him for '14

When Jimenez comes back, it'll actually be decent, assuming they tell Sanchez to fuck off.

They were one of the first teams I saw when I started getting interested in beisbol, I always thought they were pretty comfy to watch, especially when I found out they had a hue on their team.

Holy shit Norris

Jesus Christ

...

Perez actively trying to murder the tigers

...

Save that shit for when Sanchez is in please.

Mickey is a very attractive man.

>no homo

Great job Avila, you lazy piece of shit.

Los pls

Don't let this runner squeak in please.

I really hate car commericals

Welp

>tfw the first baseball season without my dad to talk baseball with

Really sucks man

>Porcello getting shelled

When did Austin Jackson become MC Ride

Good. Fuck him and the red sox

This ump is fucking garbage

Why can't the Tigers hit this year?

agreed

t. wigwam

Runs pls

You're probably the only Brazilian fan the tribe has who doesn't also play for the tribe. Thanks for picking our little white trash team senpai

Well, at least this shit ump seems to consistently call the balls outside as strikes

>Encarnación hit

gods be praised

God hates Avila

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
stop leaving runners on base

I'm sorry to hear that. Hope you can find someone else in your life to share games with.

...

Kinsler is so good. Texas is dumb to trade him to us for that fat fuck.

Kinsler don't need no faggy strike zone

>crowd booing at pitches a foot outside being called a ball

Are we '15 injuns now? Solid pitching, nonexistent bats.

TAKE THAT YOU BOOING FAGGOTS

MIGGY GONNA MIG
