Do we know when they will announce game times? Hopefully we can play some night games.

Only the two AL games on Thursday. My guess is they will do 4 PM and 8 PM and I could really see it going either way as to where they put us.

Friday is tough because there are no west coast games. 4 games need to be played in DC, Chicago, Cleveland and Texas.

I still say I rather play the Rangers than Boston. Boston just seems like a destined championship team with fat fuck Ortiz's swan song. I would feel more confident if we actually had our full pitching staff.

This goes without saying, but hopefully our bullpen can continue to complement our starters as they have the last few weeks...that, and our offense has to produce enough runs to take some of the pressure off.

Whoever had the threads during the 14 game winning streak....
I think that was TBone.

What's the latest on Salazar? I saw yesterday he threw, and they thought they'd add him to ALDS roster and use out of pen...anything official?

It was. I'm certainly up for it if I'm the chosen candidate.

I was also the closest on the prediction thread...calling for 95 and the Tribe ended up with 94*.

**In only 161 games.

Bauer is a guy who lives for these moments. I love the decision to start him game 1. I just hope he's not too fired up and doesn't have control issues, that would be my only concern

Agreed...love his fire and comptetivness, but also concerned he may kill someone if things don't go well though.

Times are set. Game 1 at 8:30 game 2 at 4:30. I love that game 1 is the late game.

Going to be great.

Nice. I went to game 5 the last "real" time they were in the playoffs,hoping to see them clinch a ALCS crown. Needless to say, I won't be going this year in fear of bad juju

How about this little nugget...Napoli maxed out the amount of money he could earn this year by achieving all of the contingencies in his contract. He triggered the last one in his last at bat earning him $10,000,000 total for the year. I wonder how often that happens.

I was there. Beckett was great and CC wasn't when we needed him most...to clinch the pennant at home.
