Well 15 minutes into #SpringTraining and Chase is unable to go. Love the kid’s potential but he’s as durable as cotton candy in a rain storm. And why didn’t they bring in an everyday OF again? @CleGuardians #HopeHeProvesMeWrong @hoynsie @espn @MLBNetwork
Sooo @CleGuardians keep talking about how they can’t develop hitters…but they don’t bring in outside hitters with a track record (read ownership are cheapskates) because it will block their young hitters or hinder their playing time?
But overpaid last year 4 Santana & Hedges?
Whew! As much of a nothingburger that the Hedges signing was…at least we won’t have another wasted roster spot for Lame Thomas. @Royals woof!
@terrypluto @hoynsie @MandyBell02 @MLBNetwork @oohaw94 @espn
Explain this and make it make sense. Clase’s $6M for 2026 is such a tipping point to holding the whole roster salary hostage but throwing away $4M on Hedges was no big deal??

This waste of a roster spot had 10 more RBIs than the team mascot. His WAR was -0.3.
It was $90,909.09 for each of the 44 times he reached base.
Baylor reached base 116 times for a fraction of the cost.

Needing to go 41-26 in the second half is a tall order for the unspectacular squad of @CleGuardians

You can tell a lot about a person by how they react when someone dies.
This team is maddening.
@CleGuardians went 0-6 from 8-19 thru 8-25…since then they are 10-4. Streaky much?
@hoynsie @MandyBell02 @terrypluto @MLBNetwork
If @Yankees @RedSox @Mariners play .500 or 1 game above that the rest of the way, @CleGuardians need to go 24-15 the rest of the way to get a playoff spot outright. @hoynsie @MandyBell02 @terrypluto @MLBNetwork
Score less than 4 runs = another @CleGuardians loss. Honorable mention to terrible ball-strike zone from home plate umpire.
@hoynsie @terrypluto @MandyBell02
Notable: Nolan Jones can’t hit a fastball. Woof. Stop running him out there.
Cleveland coverage team ALWAYS gives Austin Hedges a pass on his ‘hitting’ because of his defensive skills.
Noted: but when the team cries broke & chooses to pay $4M-$5M in his contract when no other franchise would pay that rate, there is the glaring issue.
@hoynsie @terrypluto
Last year Detroit & KC were Wildcards with 86 wins. To estimate 87 wins as probably making the playoffs, @CleGuardians would need to go 47-27 the rest of the way. Seems highly unlikely. @MandyBell02 @hoynsie @terrypluto @MLBNetwork #Sellers #OddYearTrend
Today’s game against @Cardinals is the halfway mark in the season for @CleGuardians .
This team is amazingly unspectacular. The offseason To-Do list to build a team to beat @Yankees was completely ignored. #FrontOfficeFail @hoynsie @terrypluto @MandyBell02 @MLB
In June, @CleGuardians are 5-1 when scoring 4 or more runs. Less than 4, the record is 1-9. Woof. @hoynsie @terrypluto @MandyBell02
Cut Hedges, cut Thomas
Team is reaping what the front office sowed in the offseason. Almost no $$ spent. Brought back offensively useless Hedges. Blocked Manzardo with Carlos. Should’ve cut bait with Thomas and no contingencies for RF at all. Rocchio was not their fault. @CleGuardians @hoynsie
9-3 is what @CleGuardians need to finish the month with to avoid a losing month. With Cubs, Tigers & Astros to start July - team could be irrelevant by Independence Day. @hoynsie @MandyBell02 @terrypluto
