Is it too soon to crown the Indians the AL Central Champs?

Probably not, but you never know.... The Tigers fell apart at the end of last year, in the last week and hung on to grab the WC, remember the Twins took the division after the Tigers played so well thru most of the season.

i live in southwest ohio and i am still a fan of the Cleveland Indians even though i like the reds. I am so happy that the indians are in first place went to a game the first year that Jacobs field was open.

Except for in John Wayne movies.

Indians lose 10 - 3 to the Angels. Don't go shining up that crown yet.

This is the toughest series they have the rest of the way.

 

[Paul Wozniak]

Keep that thought, when the Tigers come to town for 3 next week.

Lead is down to 5 games. Put that crown on yet?

Doesn't really matter if they do win the division. I don't think they will survive the first round. They can't seem to handle the Angels, and looks to me like that's who they will get.

The Tigers looked beat after they backed their way into the playoffs last year. You know how that turned out. You never know what's going to happen in the playoffs. All I know is that, you can't win if you're not in. Got to love a good pennant chase!

Well, they DID split the 4 game series. So if the Tribe DOES clinch the Central, it should make for a good playoff matchup

And three of those are against the Tigers next week!

Go Tigers!

Go Tigers!

The Magic Number goes down 1 game for every Tribe win or Detroit loss, so we have a chance to knock it down 6 games when we sweep those kittens next week.....

Kittens... Wow... the only comeback I can come up with for the "Indians" might get me kicked off the forum, so I will leave it alone.

I am almost positive it will be a great match up with the Tigers bats vs. the Cleveland Pitching. We have a great chance to take two games if we can Verlander, and Rogers to fall in the rotation during that series.

Serious Question:

Is Roger's still pitching? How old is he?

Did Maglio Ordoniez cut his locks yet? His hair is starting to look like that Yinzer Palamolu from Pukes-burgh!

 

[Paul Wozniak]

That number is STILL ELEVEN.

 

[HD MM]

That number is STILL ELEVEN.

Which will make it all the sweeter when we sweep the upcoming 3 game series against the Kittens to cut the magic number by 6 games!

 

[webbydude]

What's really surprising is that there are still good tickets available for the 1st game against Detroit.

Decisions decisions decisions...! Bah! It's only groceries. Guess I'll attend in person.
