Coming off our first series win in over 5 weeks (how depressing is that) the Tribe invade Chicago for a 4 game set.
Kluber is on the bump tonight coming off one of the best performances in the history of baseball. Chris Sale goes for the Chi Sox.

Cant we just let Kluber pitch in his spot?

the Indians defense L O f'ing L
Besides the shit defense in not being able to hold on to the ball, WTF was Perez doing hesitating? Dude was 2 paces from the plate. His spatial awareness should have told him he didn't have to toss it.

That play made me so mad. How can you be so dumb? Hesitate, so you have to dive, so you drop the ball. Just take 2 steps and Eaton probably just runs into the tag, conceding the out.lhslep134;1729602 wrote:the Indians defense L O f'ing L

No, because Kluber's on the mound. 4th lowest run support in baseball http://espn.go.com/mlb/stats/pitching/_/sort/runSupportPerStart/type/expanded-2/order/falseTBone14;1729604 wrote:Can't we just score some damn runs?

Im more confident we will lose 2-1 here than send it to extras.

Brandon Moss 3-5-3. So that's what defense looks like.

We need a few runs. Kluber has probably done.

While I put a ton of these losses on the offense, because you should not lose a game like this...
It is INCREDIBLY frustrating to have your bullpen give up runs every single time they pitch.

We've scored 2 or fewer runs in 4 of our last 6 games.
It just isn't good enough.
Fuck this team's inconsistent bats.
Score 10,8,1,1 in the last 4.
Baghdad Bobby D would have a woody that we were averaging 5 runs a game over that stretch. Problem is that we only score a bunch or nothing, with nothing in between.
The offense just is not giving this team a chance to win on a consistent basis no matter what the stats might otherwise say.
They are completely unable to manufacture runs, and it needs to change because they are just wasting excellent pitching on a very regular basis.

How pissed does Kluber have to be?
He signed a wildly team friendly below market deal so he can go out and be a tough luck loser more times than not because the team won't get him (or any of the other starters) any help.
He made his bed, but I wonder if he regrets signing that deal now seeing what his long term future looks like.

Mental error after mental error. Not to mention the physical ones too. It's time for Tito to read the riot act.

I hate to criticize Tito cause he has been magnificent since taking the job. But not having Ramirez in the 2-hole all season is simply baffling to me. Really, just a boneheaded mistake.

That's how you win a ball game there. Get an early lead. Lose it. Get it back the next half inning and then tack on an insurance run late. Solid pitching all around.

3 runs still sucks though.
