I'm sure the odds are working against Kluber, but he has done nothing to make me doubt him so far. Indians gotta get the damn bats out too though. Can't just rely on him to shut out this Cubs lineup that has now gotten hot.
They aren't any hotter....Tribe pitchers are not drilling fastballs high on corners in zone or missing off speed out of zone.

Been watching BTN special on the two punters who were killed in the July auto accident. I just saw it's now 7-0, and not to be a wet rag, but it just ain't in the cards this year. Cubs will be crowned world champions tomorrow night...it was a fun run.

Maybe they're not technically hotter, but they have a hell of a lot of confidence now. The point is, though, the Indians have to produce some damn offense.

Jason Heyward is a bit better defensively in RF than Lonnie

Your playbook is pretty well known at this point.

You pretty much give yourself an out on every single prediction you make and you paint yourself as a hero for making "bold" predictions. Anyone who has seen your posts knows it is 100% predictable at this point. And I'm the troll? LOL

Anyway, I'm not even trying to get into your failed predictions. More pissed about the tribe.

Should have started Salazar, he looks good and healthy. I understand the decision not to bc of his health long term and he's not stretched out but he could have given 3-4 innings and then turned it over to the bullpen

Ehh I'm fine with Tomlin here (hindsight not withstanding). Bauer's start was dumber to me. Looked bad in 2, why let him pitch 5.

The last time the Cubs were up by at least 7 in a Series game, they lost.

Wasn't Tomlin's fault that Naquin and Lonnie couldn't catch a pop fly.

Game could have been totally different if it was 1-0 after 1 and not 3-0.

Gotta know your crowd man lol

My goal would be to get to where they at least Chapman into the game....if not Chapman might go 3+ innings tomorrow.

Miller might go 4
