But Fausto falling apart. First came a 2-run homer by jayson Nix and then 4 more runs as our No. 1 pitcher stinks again.

Way to give away a game!

Carmona's last 4 starts, this one included, 23 earned runs in 24 innings. He can ruin our chances all by himself.

after Manny goes to the mound to talk to Carmona he promptly gives up seven runs.....

That was painful to hear, ugly to watch, and just downright horrible to witness.

No favors for Fausto with the defense either.

Fausto...mostly

They need to turn this thing around quickly, or we are headed for a "June swoon!"

I've been reluctant to use that phrase. I wonder if any other franchise has that term coined. Wasn't it a Plain Dealer writer who first started using it with regard to The Indians?

I don't know about that, but with all the teams of our youth, the Tribe could have a patent on the phrase!

Indians need to bring Phelps up and play him at second. Drop Kearns or Everett.

Hannahan is hitting himself into becoming a late inning defensive replacement instead of a starter.

Maybe Carmona needs another stint in the minors.
