    Gomes can be the pilot in the helicopter below the helicopter that Tomlin jumps out of. They both die in the end.

    Then we can promote Mejia.

    i thought you were fucking around. got swept by the twins while scoring 2 runs in 3 games. saw they were down 7-1 in the second inning and just didn't even bother following from there. hopefully the twins series was just a momentary hiccup and they get back to playing like they did on the road trip

    The fucking Twins aren't even good. No one in our Division should be able to keep up with us as the year progresses.

    This team looks really close to getting hot, hope when Tito's back they just go on a tear.

    Athletics, Giants and Blue Jays after the break, looks like a good chance to get hot to me.

    I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Every time it looks like they're ready to run away with the division, they end up going on a 2-8 or 3-7 skid to vastly inferior teams.

    There's so much young talent on this team, it's scary though. They'll be fine.

    To be fair, it seems like one key player has been hurt at any given time.

    Let's see what can happen now that they're healthy for the most part minus Salazar.

    Nice to see Kip & Santana hit a few homers last night. Edwin & Jay have been great this week- hopefully that continues. And the pitching has been out of this world.

    With a healthy roster, I think we are the best team in the AL. Suck it, Houston.

    what do they do with chisenhall when everyone's healthy? they'd have Brantley, Chis, Zimmer, jackson, and Bruce in the outfield. Brantley can probably play center, but Zimmer's speed and defense make him an asset in postseason play. But it's hard to sit any of Brantley, Bruce, Jackson, or Chisenhall.

    His value has been two-fold. Not only is he a great bat to have, it's been even better for Edwin.

    Really like the way this team is playing, going to be a fun fall.

    Perez played his best game as an Indian last night. Big win for us.

    Also, thigns don't appear too serious with Miller & Salazar (both put on 10-day DL). Get those two back with Brantley and Chisenhall and then ramp up for our post-season run.

    On an 11 game road trip with two double headers back to back.

    Let Miller sit till a week before the playoffs if he needs it.

    Our big free agents after this year are...

    Jay Bruce - 30 yrs old ( .260 BA / 33 HR / 89 RBI )
    Carlos Santana - 31 yrs old (.262 BA / 23 HR / 75 RBI)
    Bryan Shaw - 29 yrs old (65.7 IP / 3.29 ERA)
    Austin Jackson - 30 yrs old (.309 BA / 7 HR / 30 RBI)
    Joe Smith - 33 yrs old (47.7 IP / 3.21 ERA)

    I say you whip out the cash and pay Bruce & Santana. Let Shaw & Smith walk. Try to sign Jackson to a 2-year deal.

    Thoughts?

    Absolutely re-sign Bruce and Santana.

    This team took off when Bruce came here and protected Edwin
