Knocking on wood here...but Royals are so dumb. Trading the few prospects they had for a futile chance at playoffs. Their rebuild is going to take much longer because of this. Which, obviously helps the Tribe.

This series was a beat down of royal proportions (pun intended).

Crazy...we left expecting to be at the stadium 15 minutes before game time, but the traffic around the stadium was so heavy that we didn't get into the place until half way thru the bottom of the first.....we missed the first two runs.

Outstanding pitching in this series. Hope they saved a few runs for Kluber against the Yankees. ;)

Great series. Was super busy this weekend so barely caught any baseball but unreal to shutout a team for a whole series.

Also....that catch by Zimmer was truly outstanding. Used all of that speed and 6'5'' frame. That is extra bases 99% of the time.

IMO, two of the top 10 (maybe 5) catches of the season have been by Tribe players, Jackson & Zimmer--both truly amazing.

It was better, Edmonds would sometimes slow down to time a leap to make it look more impressive.
