Concern for the health of the Tribe

Apparently on this site, no team or player is “Done” until Dr. Roto says so. (So we’ll wait with bated breath to see if Dr. Roto will be pulling the plug on The Tribe or if he thinks that they still have a pulse.)

But I have a very simple rule when it comes to giving up on a team. So long as it's not yet September, they need to be either 10 games under .500 or 10 games out of a playoff spot before it's all over.

Back in March, I predicted Cleveland would win the division. Holy crap, was I wrong. Presently, Cleveland is 29-42, after having been swept by the Cubs (that's 13 games under .500) and they are now 12 games out of the Wild Card and 10 games behind Detroit in the Central. So let's just call it what it is, Indian fans: a bust. And let's just call me what I am: a crack head playing a guessing game, just like everybody else.

But hey, Indians fans, chin up. Maybe your team will play a big role in the trade deadline. That's always fun, right? - Robert Fairchild
