No sparkly Chief Wahoo tonight.
Regroup and go after them tomorrow.

Go Tribe.

Only counts as 1 loss. We were due for some run differential regression. Twins are throwing some rags at us the next couple. Just need our starters to remember to show up.

I agree. Been worried about it since he missed the ASG.

Well, the sun came up today and we are still in 1st place.

Love Tito but sometimes he does things that baffle me. Why put Miller in the game in that situation? The guy a competitor and pitches in close/tied games or with the lead. Hard for him to get juiced up to make his debut on the back end of a thrashing. Throw him right into the fire the next time the situation warrants...hopefully today.

They sent him for a MRI on the elbow after the game. I could see him going on the DL soon even if there is nothing wrong just to give his arm some rest

Had some questions about the thread title. Cleveland has a large Eastern European heritage and Minnesota is largely Scandinavian/Norwegan in heritage. Polka music is big in both cultures......so that's the rest of the story.

Polka Floyd plays a gig at the German-American Festival annually. They seem to at least be talented. The hacks I saw last weekend were just that...hacks.

Salazar officially to the DL for elbow inflammation. Hopefully that is all it is.

I have seen Polka Floyd before and I agree with TBone that they are at least talented and enjoyable in a strange way.

I'm not glad that he's hurt, but it's good to know there's a reason behind his crappy pitching of late...hopefully he'll heal quickly and get back to his winning ways.

Figured that was coming. Smart move to give him some rest. We need him for the stretch run

Hopefully Salazar heals up he will be needed down the stretch.

Go Tribe.

Cookie has dealt 2 scoreless and today is starting better than yesterday.

Nap GIDP to end the 1st with on.

Didn't knock on wood. Carrasco can't put the 9 hitter away 0-2. He doubles and Tribe killer Dozier parks one.

Mauer follows with a double.
I hate the Twins.

TV guys saying Callaway gave Perez an earful the entire break. He didn't throw the pitches but maybe this is an unexpected consequence of the Gomes injury.
