Today Aaron Laffey gave up the first run for an Indians starter in over 44 innings pitched!Meanwhile pitching shutouts inthe last 4 out 5 games!....not many teams can say there pitching staff did this!

Yeah the tribe has one of the better rotations in baseball. I think the Diamnonbacks have the best and right now I would put us right behind them.

Yeah, that scoreless stretch was something else. Reminds me of the 2005 White Sox pitching staff in the 2005 playoffs.

I'd rather have the Indians rotation then the D Backs but that Webb is nothing but nasty after seeing him shut down my Rockies again last night.

We really need a shutdown closer. I said it before that Betancourt is NOT a closer.All of the guys who could close for us are not shutdown closers like Wagner, Rivera etc...

I really wished we had gotten Francisco Cordero when the Rangers traded him a couple of years ago.
