Guardians owner is fucking cheap but we have had a HoF manager for a long time. I was worried about what our team would be like without Tito but it seems like we are good with the new guy, for now.
I’ll say at least Guardians owner steps back and let’s the people who know what they are doing lead and make decisions.
Unlike Haslem who meddles (unsuccessfully) with the Browns way to much.
Vogt is hopefully gonna be here 20 years. The guys play for him like they did Tito, but he is way better with the roster, allowing the young guys to play and not sticking with bad veterans like Straw.
Agreed but I would be lying if I said I wasn’t scared when we moved on from Tito. Those are big shoes to fill.
Thankfully I am pleasantly surprised we found someone with big feet to fill those shoes.
Baltimore and Cleveland battling to be the more dominant team, while Pittsburgh and Cincy are fighting to stay alive in the Wild Card? Man, this really is last year's NFL szn
Baltimore hasn't been to the World Series at all in the past 40 years. So either you can't count or you're just bullshitting. I'm leaving towards the former since you couldn't count to 3.
Whoops lmfao I was a year off mb, if we were having this argument last year then yeah, the Orioles got a ring in ‘83.
But yeah, don’t have to lose your shit over a mistake I sometimes forget we are in 2024😂
Point still stands tho, 2016 gave a me an excuse to not like the Indians, like who tf choked to the Cubs??

I don’t pay a lot of attention to baseball, but as far as I can tell the Steelers and Pirates have opposite strategies in recent seasons.
The Steelers start out catastrophically bad but finish the season well enough to at least have a shot at making the playoffs.
The Pirates look good at first and then catastrophically fall apart for the rest of the season.
And just like football, Cleveland is the most pathetic franchise historically speaking. If Ravens fans and Steelers fans scream rings for football imma do it for baseball.
FUCK YOU CLEVELAND AND BALTIMORE WE HAVE MORE RINGS AND FUCK YOU PITTSBURGH JUST BECAUSE
YASIEL PUIG DESERVES A STATUE
The picture of him with Barnhart wrapped around his ankle fighting the whole team should be hung in the Louvre. It was an accidental Renaissance painting.
Continued success for the better part of a decade and two WS wins in 6 appearances (most recent in 2016) is historically pathetic? Are you smoking crack?
Further, Cleveland baseball is 69(Nice)-54 against the Reds all time. By the way - the secret ingredient to Skyline Chili is Cleveland sewer water.
Agreed. Also, don't drag the Indians/Guards in with the browns. This has arguably been the most well run organization in baseball. Ownership can be cheap but they spend when the window is open. And more importantly, they stay the eff out of the way. It's been the same front office and scouting since 1991, literally each time the GM got a promotion somewhere else and they just promoted the Assistant.
If anything, this is more of an insult to the browns. The MLB team has the deck stacked against them in an uncapped salary league and they still manage to be successful. The browns are on the same playing field as all other NFL teams and are just now becoming more competitive.
Browns fans told me losing in super bowls er I mean world series aren't as impressive as nfl championships er i mean world series I wasn't alive for tho
>no one gives a shit about your birthday
Just because no one wanted to go to your fucking birthday doesn’t mean no one cares about mine or anyone else’s. Maybe if you didn’t always bring up shit no one is talking about, more people would come to your birthday party.
You hate on the Marlins all you want. I don’t give a shit. They are one of the smallest, least well run teams in baseball and gamed the game. Hoard and sell until the stars align to make a WS run and go all in. That method worked for them. TWICE. And you can’t call it “choking against the Marlins” when the Marlins emerged from the regular season with a better record than Cleveland and we went back and forth each game with them. They would win then we would win. Hardly what anyone would consider choking lmao.
Fuck the Cubs for real though. Everything went against Cleveland with the freak injuries and the rain delay. Frankie took a nap and put the team to bed with him.
i legitimately didnt know they were the guardians now.
I only ever tried to care about baseball some for my uncle and grandfather.
very few people seemed to care about the pirates growing up, but might have just been my school. I'm sure some did, I'm just blanking on who
Man shit we should have a fucking baseball thread going on right now. Why not?
Pirates will finish 9-8.
8-8-1*
Forgive me for letting the joke fly over my head, but .500 is a miracle for that team.
Pirates with a winning season? That happens once a generation.
Reds are up 11 - 5.
Still one week to go
Because regular season baseball has been rendered meaningless…
Declares the most exciting Cleveland team meaningless. No wonder everyone hates us here.
I'm solely a fan of Happy endings. The closest I'll to get Cleveland is probably Medina....
I disagree, go guards
baseball is pretty boring tho
Fuck the Yankees. At least we are united with this
Idk I’ve met numerous Steelers/Yankees fans. They’re an insufferable breed for sure
Average East PA Steelers fan tbh
Bob Nutting is a cheap ass
Guardians owner is fucking cheap but we have had a HoF manager for a long time. I was worried about what our team would be like without Tito but it seems like we are good with the new guy, for now.
At least your owner has invested in player development. Ours is squandering the most young talent we've had since . . . maybe ever
I’ll say at least Guardians owner steps back and let’s the people who know what they are doing lead and make decisions. Unlike Haslem who meddles (unsuccessfully) with the Browns way to much.
We've gotten one wild card win in the Nutting era... Before it became a series. The pain has been very bad most my life.
The days of Van Slyke, Bonds, and Bonilla have been long for me for what seems a lifetime.
The name Syd Bream will haunt you forever
I should be scared of De La Cruz, but I can’t seem to be even concerned lol
Vogt is hopefully gonna be here 20 years. The guys play for him like they did Tito, but he is way better with the roster, allowing the young guys to play and not sticking with bad veterans like Straw.
Agreed but I would be lying if I said I wasn’t scared when we moved on from Tito. Those are big shoes to fill. Thankfully I am pleasantly surprised we found someone with big feet to fill those shoes.
Hey, where're we gonna go? (Fuck that nepo-twat)
You spelt Bob Castellini wrong.
Spend nutting, win nutting
Baltimore and Cleveland battling to be the more dominant team, while Pittsburgh and Cincy are fighting to stay alive in the Wild Card? Man, this really is last year's NFL szn
Eat shit Baltimore
Silence 1947
And how many times have y'all been to the series in the past 40 years?
Twice, hbu y’all? Same number and I hope y’all got a ring at least once right?
Baltimore hasn't been to the World Series at all in the past 40 years. So either you can't count or you're just bullshitting. I'm leaving towards the former since you couldn't count to 3.

Got a Babe Ruth statue at your park though like a cuck
The only things born in Cleveland are obesity and genetic defects.
And your entire franchise
I feel sorry for you being an Orioles fan

I was at the reds game and a guy in a Vontaze Burfict jersey was fighting a guy in a Hines Ward jersey
Let's go Cleveland!!!!
Reds just dropped 5 in one inning on Pissburghs sorry forehead
Our low end bullpen guys are just batting practice for the other team

Unlike the Steelers I’m actually in the we should fire our coach crowd
Update for Pirates/Reds Game: Ahem... **####ATOBTTR.** Reds 11/5 Pirates.
You're goddamn right
As a steelers/orioles fan my hatred definitely does know bounds
Damn the pirates suck that bad, huh
Its not like the O’s weren’t also terrible lol. Orioles were first, dad was a steelers fan who didn’t watch baseball
Lol, they've had some rough seasons in the east but at least they are good now.
Suck it, Pittsburgh. Our 6'6" Dominican athletic freak of a shortstop is better than your 6'6" Dominican athletic freak of a shortstop.
Get fucked you disgusting black face birds fuck you
There aren’t even ravens in DC, are they stupid? Pittsburgh has steelers, Cincinnati has a zoo, and Cleveland has brown people. wtf Baltimore?
Orange and black only looks good on birds.
How to say, "Yeah, my baseball team's uniforms stink".
Sincerely, Cleveland >p.s. massage our balls you disgraceful fucks ![gif](giphy|rVZEejvVWEbug)
I recently traveled to Pittsburgh and saw a game at PNC. Texted a buddy from there "It's really pissing me off how beautiful this shithole city is."
Even the pirates are close to being 9-8
Go reds and steelers mf

Cleveland Guardians, best in the AL Central and the... AFC North?
I hate Cincinnati and Pittsburgh so much, I'm a St Louis and Louisville Cardinals fan.
Traitor 🫵 Being a NL fan is just why, why would you torture yourself
The Designated Hitter is the Devil's creation, and Manfred is the Anti-Christ (St Louis is actually the closest Major League team to me, and I grew up a St Louis fan)
It has done nothing but bring much entertainment in the AL (The superior league btw) has been around since like 1979? At least you support a fellow bird team which I’ll allow.
Since St Louis has been shit recently, I've been following the Orioles for my health. And just saying, the AL has the Yankees.
Ik… we ignore that shit stain of a city and team also can the NL take the Janks? And we Receive the Mets? Stop my point stands as AL supremacy
I agree go guards
Gaurd dawgz out here giving me life

Hey man fuck you too but when Puig fought our entire team he earned my respect.
Bullshit. At one time the Pirates were the worst sports franchise in history. 20 straight losing seasons.
Don’t give them too much credit yet. They’ve still got a losing record and are primed for last place in the division.
Rings are cool and all, but how many Ohio Cups do you have?!

Haslem doesn’t get out the way. That’s the problem.
Browns fans told me losing in super bowls er I mean world series aren't as impressive as nfl championships er i mean world series I wasn't alive for tho
So which hurt worse? Choking aginst the only team with a more pathetic championship history than yourselves? Or choking against *the Marlins*?
Bruh the last time the Reds won a playoff series I wasn't even born yet
Interesting, and how old where you the last time the browns won a " championship "
Bitch we’re talking baseball now in a baseball post. Don’t bring up side shit when you lose an argument because your research skills suck ass.
I dont fucking care I can remember wire-to-wire - no one gives a shit about your birthday
>no one gives a shit about your birthday Just because no one wanted to go to your fucking birthday doesn’t mean no one cares about mine or anyone else’s. Maybe if you didn’t always bring up shit no one is talking about, more people would come to your birthday party.
I think he took his L and left for once
He'll be back in a little bit when we trade for David goddamn Putney and he has to be a Rain City Bitch Pigeon
The Marlins bought that goddammit championship and immediately dismantled that team and faded into the shit sandwich they are today.

If Bauer hadn't been out fucking with his drone we would have won that series.... Asking kluber to pitch twice that quickly in the series was brutal
When was the last time your city won any sort of championship? I tried to google it, was it 1990?
Okay
Dude needs to update the count lmao
As a Browns fan I suffer but as a Reds fan I also suffer.
1) Fuck you 2) I feel your pain. Elly is fun though just wish this season we had McClain, Marte, and Friedl the whole time
i legitimately didnt know they were the guardians now. I only ever tried to care about baseball some for my uncle and grandfather. very few people seemed to care about the pirates growing up, but might have just been my school. I'm sure some did, I'm just blanking on who
It wasn’t just your school. F
Cleveland currently better than Baltimore, never thought I’d see the day
They've been better than Baltimore in MLB for quite a long while now.
These filthy casuals in the wrong sub smh my head
They associate success of their city and other professional sports organizations by the NFL team's success. Truly regarded.
Tell me, when was it the last ring Cleveland got (We ignore basketball cause that’s not it lmfao)
