Baseball grapples with different color barrier

PHOENIX -- With Jackie Robinson Day set for Monday, 66 years after Robinson broke baseball's color barrier, and the movie "42" opening nationwide Friday, the spotlight will shine as it does annually on Robinson's legacy and the players carrying it on today. In the Diamondbacks clubhouse, that spotlight will shine alone on reliever Tony Sipp, who doesn't need...

Sipp out to prove himself again with D-backs

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- When the Cleveland Indians selected reliever Tony Sipp in the 45th round of the 2004 MLB First-Year Player Draft, he didn't even know it until a friend called to tell him. Sipp had stopped paying attention after his name wasn't called in the first 15 rounds. And even though he'd been drafted, Sipp didn't hear from the Indians. "On draft...

Is Indians Vinnie Pestano The Best Set Up Man In All Of Baseball?

The Cleveland Indians found themselves in third place in the A.L. Central and the Tribe needed to win again. The game was close and relief pitcher Tony Sipp has some trouble in Tampa Bay. What was manager Manny Acta left to do? He called for Mr. Set up Man, that’s right it was the 7th inning and Acta called in Vinnie Pestano to get the Cleveland Indians out of the inning. Pestano...

Is Tony Sipp’s 6.95 E.R.A. Sinking The Indians Ship?

The Cleveland Indians have been known for the bull-pen the past couple of season, (The Bull-pen Mafia) Tony Sipp doesn’t fit. Every time the Indians put Sipp into the game the team risks the chance of producing a win. Sipp just doesn’t fit the bill, Manny Acta has to know that. The fans know it why doesn’t the teams manager know it? Sipp has a 6.95 earned run average and he...

Box Score: Pirates 9, Indians 2

This game was close. I swear. You look at this and you’d think, “whelp, Ubaldo must’ve had one of those days”, but that is not the case. Jimenez did his best Dave Burba impression (6.0 IP, 4 ER, 2 BB, 4K) but the Tribe’s bats never figured out Pirates starter AJ Burnett. Both times the Indians scored (two solo shots, from Cabrera and Kotchman, respectively), Ubaldo gave...

June and the Indians

Well here we are in the month of June and the Tribe is sinking a bit. (Some may say stinking). The truth is that the White Sox have become red hot and our pitching has been a little suspect lately. I believe this month will tell if we have a playoff team or not. We have a LOT of away games and of course some interleague play. If we can break even there and play the Tigers well this...

Does Tony Sipp Belong In A Indians Uniform Or the Bull-Pen

The Indians Bull-pen has been the back bone of the team over the past two seasons. The weak-link is Tony Sipp. Every time the Indians manager calls for Sipp tribe fans cringe. Most often Sipp comes into the game and gives up the long ball. Sipp doesn’t fit into the Indians Bull-Pen. The Cleveland Indians have got to get rid of Tony Sipp and replace him with a guy that has the same...

Box Score: Indians 3, White Sox 2

The Indians pulled off the double header sweep of the White Sox today, winning the nightcap 3-2. Tomlin was magnificent, and the offense supplied just enough.
