STFU the Dodgers can hold LinCy's nuts

 

[Mexi]

Lince wont win Cy

if he got it last year being on that bad team, i see no reason why Haren can't win it this year

Haren can win it this year they're both gonna be candidates.

If Lincy steps his game up and Haren drops just a little bit, I can still see him repeating

 

[Mexi]

Haren looks untouchable right now
and Lince looked meh today.
4 runs? lol
idc if he had 9K's

5 IP, 4 ER, 9 Ks

He was rushing his delivery it looked like. Then he got frustrated and pitched like a turd.

It was that HR that killed him though. I was pissed.

You never know what could happen in the 2nd half though

 

[VC15]

I have another prediction:

Even the Orioles will finish ahead of the Jays once Halladay is traded.

 

[playmaker7]

I still doubt he'll be traded

 

[VC15]

I was just saying random crap like most people here were doing back in April/May.

The Indians are currently in a stretch where they are going to face 7 straight left handed starters, and it could be 8 in a row, depending on the TBA from the Mariners after we face Washburn and Bedard.

Setup man Rafael Betancourt returned to the Indians' bullpen just in time to become trade bait. And on Thursday, the Rockies bit.

The Indians have traded Betancourt, a fixture in their 'pen since 2003, to the Rockies in exchange for Class A right-hander Connor Graham. It was the second swap of the summer for an Indians team that dealt Mark DeRosa to the Cardinals last month, and it could be a sign that the remaining week before the non-waiver Trade Deadline will be an active one.

The Indians held a $5.4 million option on the 34-year-old Betancourt for 2010 that they were not expected to exercise.

Graham, 24, is an Ohio product with a big body and intriguing numbers at the high-A level.

A native of Bowling Green and a Miami of Ohio alum, Graham is listed at 6-foot-7, 235 pounds and has spent all of '09 with the Modesto Nuts of the California League. He is 7-4 with a 3.14 ERA, 87 strikeouts and 41 walks in 80 1/3 innings in 16 starts. His ERA is the sixth-best in the league, and he's limited the opposition to a .225 average against, with just two homers allowed. He is 3-0 with a 0.59 ERA over his last three starts.

The Rockies had plucked Graham out of Miami with their fifth-round pick in the 2007 First-Year Player Draft. In his first full professional season last year, he went 12-6 with a 2.26 ERA in 26 starts for Asheville in low-A ball. Following the '08 season, Baseball America named him the 12th-best prospect in the Rockies' organization.

Graham throws a fastball and slider and had been working on a changeup.

OMG Jose Guillen on DL for 6-8 weeks, and his season is most likely done then <3
