Tribe goes to the Motor City to take on the Tigers in a three game set.
Pitching Match ups:
Monday: Carrasco vs Fiers
Tuesday: Tomlin vs Liriano
Wednesday: Bauer vs To Be Named
Go Tribe
Go Tribe.
Should take 2 out of 3. Any game that has the name "Tomlin" beside it I chalk up to a loss.
Should take 2/3 from the central all year, with a few sweeps sprinkled in. Nice to see them bunch back vs KC after losing the type of game they have won comfortably for 3 seasons to start it off.
The Indians are 9-3 vs the Central. 11-16 vs everyone else.
Hey Mantooth: it's game #40
Laley: JRam is now tied for the league lead in homers (13)!
Go Tribe.
Hate to see Cookie struggling yet again—it’s like he’s throwing BP...he just doesn’t seem right.
Guyer 1/27 vs right handers, and proceeds to botch a catch in foul territory—then I just hear Zimmer going on IR...not trending so well for the Tribe.
edit: and lol again at Z-Mac being our “bridge guy”
Tribe is putting the "BULL" in bullpen. You can't get behind in the count to every batter.
Indians need to get another bat and a reliever if they want to be taken seriously. Also...anyone want to take back all the Bryan Shaw hate the last few years??
Bats I assume are available already:
Relievers:
Anyone else you guys can think of?

There was some hope, but...........you win.
vball- yes you win.
Guyer with a grand slam in the first!
Hold on to your hats.......here comes Tomlin!
And he gives up a homer to the lead off hitter. Number 14 given up which is number one in MLB.
Tomlin settles down.
5-1 in the third.
Tribe leads MLB in homers.
Machado takes off on a routine fly ball thinking there were two outs.
DP
5-1, T4
Well, here we go in the 5th.
Two runs in with one out and one on.
5-3
........and the bleeding is stopped
To the 6th.
Two run double by Davis.
7-3.
Ramirez gets another double added to his repertoire and it's 8-3.
Tomlin exits in the 6th after giving up homer #15.
8-4.
He cannot be the loser.
Olson in.
How is the confidence level here?
(rhetorical) as I know I'm only talking to myself.
Go Tribe.
Olson gets the job done.
Kipnis breaks 0-15 streak with a single.
Lindor's streak in danger. 3 walks, but no hits.
Today is Michael Brantley's thirty firths (1th) birthday.
