The Twins are awful. But won the only series thus far. The Astors are bad, but are 4-2 versus the Tribe. Time to start beating these teams. A sweep here is honestly expected, but, amazingly, the pitching in this series will be about as even as it could be.

Tomlin (3.72) - Nolasco (4.70)
Kluber (4.14) - Santana (3.86)
Bauer (3.86) - Duffy (2.60)

I expect another sweep. Pitching sucks and our bats have gone silent.

It appears Tomlin versus Park is a poor matchup for the Tribe.

Even after 2 Park 2 run homers... 4-4 in top of 8. Shaw in. Tv just jinxed him so expect at least a run given up.

As I typed that, fucking Shaw gives up a homer. Way to go

How we can't beat the Twins is baffling. They are beyond terrible. So frustrating.

As much as I liked mike aviles, keeping Jose seems like a good idea.

Oh good, no outs guy on 3rd for twins in 9th.

Never in doubt! Lol.

In all seriousness, a sweep should be expected versus hear guys. On track for that still, as ugly as it was.

Cody made it interesting, but a win is a win.

Tribe playing two of the worst teams in the baseball this homestand....need to pile on some W's.
The tribe is now in second place with a record of 17–15.... They have one 7of their last 10 games and are five games behind the White Sox.

The Tribe offense is comatose....5-1 loss to the worst team in the AL. :(

Some thoughts...Tyler Naquin needs more time in AAA to learn how to play defense....another misplay by him today costs the team two runs.
Gio Urshela can do what Juan Uribe is doing right now...that is, hit .210, Drive in 6 runs and hit one HR....IN SIX WEEKS....and play better defense too.
