They've done some good work recently. Don't give up all back with a bad road trip. It's nice when you feel good about your starter pretty much every game instead of wondering how many runs the offense is going to need tonight.

Also...can we sign Lindor to a lifetime contract? He is so damn good and the team feeds off his play and energy. This is a fun group right now to watch and doing it all without MB, too.

I saw a movie called that once. Or wait...was it called Seamen Soaked? Or Semen Soaked? I'm horrible at remembering movie titles.

Fighting my eyelids right now. Tribe up 3-1, Bauer looking solid. J-Ram is an AS. Doing just enough on offense to have a shot here tonight. I'd call it a steal, after the awful schedule with traveling and the delay yesterday. Expected a let down tonight.

Salazar will skip a start due to shoulder fatigue....Anderson will pitch Wednesday.

Nicht gut... Checking in from Prague, apparently they've been killing It while I've been gone. Lindor, Napoli, Ramirez. Can't wait to be back and keep watching these guys. Keep up the good work hits.

There are a lot worse guys to call up on a days' notice for a spot start than Anderson. However, Anderson was battered for 5 runs in 4+ innings vs the M's in April. He didn't get a decision but the Tribe lost 10-7.

Bauer in the 5/6/7 innings last night was as good as he has probably pitched since high school. Goodness that was impressive! This is why he has to start. He will probably get shelled and be inconsistent every few starts...but, he is also gonna give you some games like last night and a few starts ago, where he is pretty damn dominant.

Anderson getting hit hard in the first. Got the leadoff man. 2nd hitter hit a shot off the top of the way in right. Missed a homer by a foot but Lonnie threw him out at 2nd. Cano hit a rocket to right and Cruz hit a bomb.

2-0 Ms after 1.

Chiz should be out in right most of the time.... the guy has found his natural position.

Is our AAA staff so bad that no one deserves a start over Anderson?

Clevinger is the jnly other guy ready. We are loaded with pitchers on the farm, but none are ready for the Bigs yet. Clevinger is still a decent ways away from being impactful.

But yes, your point remains. Anderson is awful.

To be frank, until Anderson regains his form from last fall, I'd move Zac Mac to the spot starting role....easier to find a seventh inning guy, then a credible starter.
