Game 125 Open Thread - Royals at Indians
Kansas City Royals at Cleveland Indians, Aug 19, 2008 7:05 PM EDT
The battle for fourth place continues tonight in Cleveland. Sorta ironic timing for this series, as I spent most of the summer in Cleveland and got married there on the 16th.
Unfortunately, the Royals just missed me, or me them...
The Royals are 4-4 against the Tribe in 2008.

Love MLB.tv. I usually can’t watch games live because of my work schedule, so it acts as a Tivo for me. Can’t speak to the Windows experience, but the performance is rock solid for Linux users.

Hosmer to Idaho Falls this weekend...
Hosmer’s debut
Want an idea of how advanced the Royals see first baseman Eric Hosmer, the 18-year-old selected with the third overall pick in the June draft?
Hosmer will bypass the Arizona Rookie League and begin his professional career Saturday at Idaho Falls. Such a jump is unusual for a high-school player, but the Royals did the same thing last year with infielder Mike Moustakas.
Hosmer is in game shape from a summer spent with the Midland (Ohio) Redskins, an amateur team for 16-18 year-olds in the Connie Mack League.
Split and Ryan giving Gload some love on the TV.

3 runs now
good pitchin luke
you’ll get that era above 6 yet
winning records follow good bullpens
The Indians have made an adjustment
with that batting approach this inning. Luke is trying to counteract that… just not working out for him yet.
Don't forget to send your broken maples to the US Forest Service.
I think the adjustment has been
wait for him to throw it right over hte plate
winning records follow good bullpens
No…. they are sitting back on the sinker trying to drive it the other way…. the first inning they hooked a lot of balls…. I wish we’d make an adjustment when we were hitting….
Luke started going offspeed first pitch but didn’t do well with location…..
Don't forget to send your broken maples to the US Forest Service.
They saw 7 pitches in the first inning
I don’t know how you “hook a lot” in 7 pitches
winning records follow good bullpens
A good team sees the pitcher's approach in the first inning
and figures out how to beat him early. That’s why Luke struggled the second. Indians coaches said, hey, he’s a sinkerballer, you beat him hitting it the other way. He’s leaving it up for us we just have to hit it… what’d they Indians do? Started going the other way…
Don't forget to send your broken maples to the US Forest Service.
what's this business about making adjustments?
Is that allowed in MLB?
The Royals aren't allowed too.... everyone else is though.

Great job pitching that guy right there.
Don't forget to send your broken maples to the US Forest Service.
Fantastic control of his offspeed stuff that inning
That’s what I’m talking about, he needs to pitch like that more. I realize the organization is infatuated with the idea of having an extreme groundballer, but he has good offspeed pitches.
winning records follow good bullpens
Does Hochaver have a plus fastball?
All i’ve seen is the junk curve and change up. Why was he overall #1 pick material again?
at one point in time he was 93-94

you stop throwing it....
you lose it.
Don't forget to send your broken maples to the US Forest Service.
he's never even been close...
i’d like to hear dayton talk about his velocity
winning records follow good bullpens
he was throwing harder at the beginning of the year… he was consistently 91-92
Don't forget to send your broken maples to the US Forest Service.
he was also walking a boatload of guys
might have eased up a bit to get it in the zone
winning records follow good bullpens
Hype Boras did a great job.
TL had more talent but scouts didn’t think his arm could hold up and teams thought Andrew Miller was gonna cost too much. Hoch was never projected as a #1 more of a midrotation type guy.
Every fight is a food fight when you’re a cannibal.
-- Demetri Martin
I don't think he can touch 93-94 consistently
I think the best we can hope for is 92 with some touches in the 93 94 range.
Every fight is a food fight when you’re a cannibal.
-- Demetri Martin
that's on nights his arm is poppin
i think in reality he will be 89-91

according to gameday
it’s been tops around 89. I thought that was probably the sinker.
gun at progressive might be a touch slow
it’s usually +/- 1-2mph at the diff stadiums

evan longoria
brad lincoln

andrew miller
clayton kershaw

dude - jose guillen is friggin' killing us - he should not be playing until he's healthy
and if he bitches and complains he should be cut.
I don't know why, but this year's team is pissing me off more and more.
Maybe I’ve just became more of a fan this year because I can watch them almost all of the time. But games like tonight make me question my loyalty. I’m from the KC area, I love Kaufman, and I love their uniforms. I’m a little too young to remember the 80’s. I was born in 82. But I do know I grew up thinking George Brett could walk on water. I want to be around when they become good. But FUCK, that looks like a long road.
We need wisdom from the Lion King here
(Rafiki hits Simba on the head with his stick)
Simba: Ow! Jeez, what was that for?
Rafiki: It doesn’t matter. It’s in the past.
Simba: Yeah, but it still hurts.
Rafiki: Oh yes, the past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it, or… learn from it.

that's true for getting hit in the head once
