Sounds a lot like blue jays announcers. Not to mention their obsession with "big and strong" players.

Tribe guys obsess over contact hitters, "situational" hitting, bunting, pitching to the dimensions of the ballpark, small sample size match up history, super low velocity starters with control, among other dumb shit. They also LOVED to talk about how Ubaldo's diminished success had nothing to do with his 7 MPH dip in velocity, and it was because he had too many pitches.

Salazar goes 3 2/3, surrenders 5 runs, with 10 strikeouts. ALL OR NOTHING

Yeah, Pittsburgh goofed this off-season
 
They should have gone after a 1B or a RF, that lineup still needs another piece, probably two.  Jose Abreu would have a been a nice fit because of his age, but can see why a small market team wouldn't be willing to take that kind of a risk on someone from Cuba.
