Tribe head to the Windy City for 4 games in 3 days vs the Sox.

Double dip today with the first game at 5:10 EST.

Clevinger goes for his first career win taking on Latos in game 1.

In game 2, the Tribe's walking dumpster fire Cody Anderson will take on a man named Erik Johnson. Making his 2nd start this year and first since May 5th...Johnson was touched for 8 hits and 4 runs over 5 innings allowing 2 HR and 3 walks in that game. First team to 8 tonight.

Tuesday and Wednesday will be a more familiar matchups with undefeated pitchers taking the bump. 6-0 Tomlin vs 9-0 Sale tomorrow and Kluber vs Quintana for a getaway 2:10 start on Wednesday.

Go Tribe. I'd do cartwheels over 3 of 4 and I would sign up for a 2-2 split right now. Just don't lose all 4.

Excited to watch Clevinger tonight. I missed his last start after the 1st inning. Won't see much of game 2 (Thank God!) lol

Game #2 might end up being a football score..... I'm going with Tribe by a field goal 13-10.

Sox up 7-6 and batting in the 8th.

I'll take 1-1 with Clevinger and Anderson. Tonight should be a good matchup.

Didn't expect Anderson to pitch like last fall. ...very happy with the split.


Cookie Carrasco expected to throw a 3 inning rehab stint for the Lake County Captains on Saturday :)

Love the hustle tonight. Rajai first to 3rd on a passed ball (he was stealing) and great slide by Jose to score the 6th run. Chris jiminez hr sighting as well. 6-1 tribe bottom of 4, and like ironman said sale is out

Man, hating on Uribe and then he homers last night, clutch rbi tonight, and finally makes a good throw to first on the dp.

I may have missed it yesterday but where did Martinez come from?

Day game today. Currently only 1.5 games back of the White Sox.

It would be a huge boost to take 3 out of 4.

I still think it's going to take having Brantley and Carrasco back to get this team to really go, so staying close or getting on top, even without them, is a very positive sign.

Games like last night are why the losses to the Astros/Twins are so frustrating. That game last night had their full attention. They were ready to battle. But when the Twins come to town throwing their #4 with 5+ ERA we make him look like Pedro Martinez.

I was guilty of this too, but I sure do love it when they prove my ass wrong

I hope that Keystone Kop play in the 6th doesn't come back to hurt.

Hammy called it "little league".
