I am angry!!!!

 Between games of the doubleheader and it is time to blow off a little steam in frustration.

First, I am angry at Owen Miller.   We have had to deal with pathetic players like Jake Bauers, Ben Gamel and Yu Chang all season.   You were the one shining light for us in the minors.   I mean, a guy hitting .450 for almost a month in the minors should be able to add SOMETHING to our hitting, right?   But no, just like your pathetic brethren at AAA, Bobby Bradley, Daniel Johnson and Oscar Mercado, you brought nothing with you when you came to the majors.  NOTHING.   How dare you be this bad?   How dare you add to the misery that is watching pathetic, AAAA guys flail away this year without respite.   How dare you fail so miserably.

Then I continue to be angry at Chris Antonneti and Mike Chernof.  How dare you get so little in these blockbuster trades when our stars are shipped out of town?  How dare you?!?  I said at the time that, when you look at the return Pittsburgh got for Joe Musgrove that the Indians didn't get enough for the combination of Lindor and Carrasco.    I mean, Ahmed Rosario is an OK ML shortstop, but Andres Gimenez is at least a year away and when he gets her Rosario has to play a different position...AGAIN.  Bad choice in getting these players.  Plus you add Josh Wolf who is either hurt or just really SUCKS at Lake County and Isaiah Greene who is so far away from the majors that he didn't even make a full-season team this year.   

Then you look at the Mike Clevinger trade to San DIego.   Of all the players we got in this trade the one who looks the best right now is Josh Naylor and he is not that far above a replacement level player.   The aforementioned Miller has just SUCKED in Cleveland.   Gave Arias who is a bat-first middle infielder is barely above the Mendoza line.    Austin Hedges is WAY overpaid.   He is a great pitch blocker and his framing is better than I thought but his attempts at hitting?!?!  He wouldn't be an average hitter if he was a National League pitcher.  Joey Cantillo is hurt which hightens the suckiness of this trade.   

The Trevor Bauer trade doesn't even look that good.   I mean Franmil Reyes is very good but the other guys we got in that trade are either gone, pathetic or hurt.   

I am incredibly angry with Oscar Mercado, Daniel Johnson and Bobby Bradley.   How dare you guys suck so bad that the allow the front office to keep running out guys like Bauers and Chang and having to have Harold Ramirez hitting clearnup.    Your pathetic showing at AAA makes me not only want to call you up, it wants to make me demote you to AA Akron so your suckiness can be further away from the majors and I can stop dreaming on you guys being the saviors of this offense that clearly you don't give a crap about being.   

The only people I am not angry at right now is our manager and our pitching coach and our pitchers.  

We could have such a good team this year and, instead, we have to look at such sucky hitters and a front office that, besides being inept at blockbuster trades, also tries to justify their failures by keeping guys like Bauers on the team long enough that the only reason he is still here is because said same front office is waiting for Yandy Diaz to start sucking so releasing Bauers makes that trade sting less.

The only reason I am a little less angry than I could have been is that Clevinger and Carrasco are hurt and Lindor has been sucking so bad.    So the sucky trades we made look a little less sucky.   

Did I mention how angry I am?
