Howdy Tribe Guy. The only statistic that matters when discussing the Big O:
He's played in the playoffs 6 of the last 7 seasons.

It's the O Factor. Respect it. Don't deflect it. Don't inspect it. Just accept it.

Shudda built a dome.
I said it 20 years ago. I will say it (Lord willing and the creek don't rise) 20 years from now.

Good points, Tribe Guy. Without any statistical references, I'll just add that I've liked watching Orlando Cabrera play ball in 2011. Some guys just play the game well, regardless if they have all five tools or the tools they do have clicking.
On the bases, in the field or at the plate I've been confident in Orlando Cabrera's play as each game I've seen has developed.

Pronk's walk-off homer Friday is number 3 on MLB networks' "Plays of the Week." They used Hammy's call, which I hadn't heard.

Shudda built a dome.
Retractable, a la Milwaukee IMO.

We were just a few years early in building Jacobs Field for it to have been a retractable roof, like they have in Seattle, Milwaukee, and AZ.

After tonight's win at KC, 65-59 the rest of the way gets us to 90.
For comparison, Detroit is our closest pursuer and they need to go 68-53 to get to 90.

I apologize (again) for the additional downtime today. It looks like we were on a bad piece of hardware at Amazon. It took about an hour get our instance shut down and brought back up elsewhere. Hopefully this is the end of the trouble!

After the massive 1965 blackout in the northeast, the birth rate spiked 9 months later.
What was everyone doing while this place was down today?

I'm pretty sure a lot of people weren't even aware the server was down!

I carry that iPhone so when I realized I couldn't get on this morning California time on my desk top, I checked often and knew we were down.
Glad Ryan got it going for the game.
Thanks, Ryan.
