I thought we put august 28th, 2014 in our past :(

Gameplan: Don't pitch Bruce Chen.

Oh shit, I'll get a mod to fix, was in the middle of a phone call talking about an order on the 28th, delivery today, yada yada and goofed.

Edit your OP, click go advanced, then you can change the thread title.

Cool, Thank You.

I was always understanding that we can edit anything but the title, that a mod would have to do that.

Why not? /Yost

:banghead:

So thankful we do not get Corey Kluber during this 3 game set. Yet the Tigers do when the Indians leave KC!

This guy has been a Pain In The Ass for us!
 

Carlos Santana is 12 for 23 with six homers and nine RBIs over his last six against the Royals, with five of the homers coming in that four-game series at Kansas City last month.

Any against Vargas?

Nope, only Nick Swisher of the current Indians roster players has a history of 2 dingers vs Vargus
