I like Puig, but that’s a HUGE HAUL you listed. Puig isn’t worth one of those players for a last place team trading to a team in a division race. Not to mention contract vs Mercado in rookie deal, it just makes no sense for the Tribe. What would make more sense would be a middling AAA player of a promising low A guy.

Just Puig in general. Mercado is killing it and wanting Puig would be a Naquin thing.

Yeah, I’m not against Puig. Just don’t think he fits what the Tribe wants to do. Anyone younger they will keep because of contracts, especially Mercado and Naquin because they are producing right now. 

3.0. Games. Back.

Anybody hesr an explanation on that bogus balk call?

On the post game show, Al and Jensen agreed that under close scrutiny, he did flinch slightly. 

Personally, that call goes into the bullshit file. 

Not that it will matter but another replay overturn today, after like 3 yesterday. Add that to the balk and this squad sucks. 

Is Plutko Josh Tomlin 2.0?

Smart play by Wittgren. 

Now get the walk off!

1-0 loss... gross

That game sucked. Seemed like Tribe was constantly in hitters counts, but couldn’t get a damn hit.

Oakland with 2 in the ninth does Cleveland a favor, winning 5-4 over Minnesota.

Somehow.

Tribe smoking the ball today, finally got some things to fall. Leading 5-2, still batting in the 6th. Lindor has a 1-handed HR earlier.

Twins rocking As early, but Oakland did their job going 2-2 (assuming L today) and added bonus of the 9th inning comeback last night.
