I'm too beaten down by the losing to say that James McCann sucks.

You have to love the ejection though.  He is trying to light a fire under this team!

[Tenacious D 398]

Thank God this isn't a 4 game series.  Would be bummed to see them break the MLB record against us.

F Cleveland

Remember what mama said when she said..

Take time to know her, er...him, its not an over night thang.

Keep it up boys. Earn that draft pick for next year.

[Walewander 134]

Nicholas Castellanos is anti-tank. You wouldn't have known that from his third base defense earlier this year but hey.

He's his own man, a maveric of sorts.

The Tigers definitely got reamed on the pitch McCann and Brad got tossed. Pathetic.

Put Norris back in the rotation...at least give me a reason to watch a few innings.

I agree.  What's the downside if he pitches poorly?  We might lose a game.  We're good at doing that anyway.

he's thrown his only 3 good innings the past 3 months from the bullpen. let the kid get some confidence, he needs it.

[Who is the Drizzle? 588]

i wouldn't do it yet but whatever.

[Who is the Drizzle? 588]

lol this ump continues to be ****

 

[Who is the Drizzle? 588]

announcers have been a bit weird on both the radio and the tv. kind of concern trolling when things go bad.

guess what guys, we don't really care anymore. we know this is a terrible team and the indians are great, just roll with it. don't act like a bloop falling in or an 0-2 hr is the end of the world. if we lose, so what. if we win this game it's not going to validate the season either.

tone just seems off.

[Casimir 1,663]

Here we go, top of the 9th.  2 to tie, 3 to win.

[Who is the Drizzle? 588]

lol. so nick didn't backup from RF on a drive to LCF wall. Jacoby ole's it and the thing kicks back to RCF....where Presley, the LF, chases it down and starts the relay that throws out Santana going for an inside-the-parker.

here's the diagram:

Maybe the 1st overall draft pick isn't that far out of reach....

I think my 4th grade Little League team won our division on a play like that.

Edit: I wonder what ever happened to that RF...

this is the gas leak season like season 4 of Community

Congratulations Cleveland Indians on their 18 game winning streak. I'm discounting by 50% six of the wins vs by the cruddy Tigers.

[irvink 67]

If White Sox hold onto the lead, they are only two games ahead of us in the push for third overall pick. Tho, they have tie breaker, so it'd be 2.5. 

Third is looking more and more possible.

I suspect if the Indians had faced the June 2017 Tigers their streak would be over. Almost half of this historic streak has been aided by the decision of two of the clubs the Tribe has beaten to stop fielding  major league teams. For sure they would probably have ripped off 19 wins out of 21 games or something torrid like that. But the White Sox and Tigers have certainly helped along. 

[Tenacious D 398]

based on how crappy the Tigers, White Sox and Royals will be, I suspect they'll be able to beat their own record next year.
