Are we mice or men?

Go Tribe. 

With the NY trip looking a lot tougher than before with Yankees and Mets being good, 3/4 might be the minimum needed to not end up 4-5 back again shortly after. Boston, NYY, NYM. Twins do have Milwaukee and Texas, so tough and decent, before the White Sox in that same timeframe.

Anyway, regarding this series, I have a lot of optimism going in. Love being able to get a win AND save Clevinger. Beiber has become someone you just expect to get a win with. Not Kluber level of ‘16-‘17, but getting there. Then hope we catch a hot game or 2 tomclose it out.

Go Tribe

FWIW: 538 shows first two games as even, Twins slight favorite for Sat & Sun

Need minimum split, 3/4 would be great

Not probable but a sweep would do wonders. Obviously they'd retake the division lead but I also think they'd really get into the Twins heads, having blown an 11 game lead.

Good Luck

Cruz on the late year’s Ortiz stuff apparently

4-0 currently, and Cruz leaving the game...

How did Cruz hurt his wrist? I figured it would be his oblique or shoulder the way he swung and missed. But wrist?

Bieber for me. More economical with pitches. Clevinger has taken a giant leap though, one I didn’t see coming and I was super high on him coming into the year. 

Clevinger definitely has better stuff though. 

Man, Reyes is so bad right now

Birthday wishes going out tonight to Iggy in Independence,  La'Quantrae in Lima,  Donald in Defiance, Vinnie in Van Wert, and Pete in Portsmouth.

Happy Birthday ladies!

Great catch by Mercado in CF. 

Nelson Cruz with wrist strain. Day-to-day, but doubtful for tomorrow.

Whew. That was closer than needed. Cimber with an atrocious outing. 

Dont want to jinx anything, but Naquin really making me eat my words from the last few seasons. 

Tribe wins 7-5

WELCOME TO CLEVLAND

Puig

We Are All KIPNESES

Helping Hand

1 game back

Party at Kent Hrbek's

Go Tribe

That was easy.

Hand probably unavailable tonight. Going to need Beiber to be go deep and offense to score

As far as this series goes, tonight is a "must win" in that they have the favorable matchup with Beiber going. If they split the final two I'd consider it a win. Looks like they may have caught a break in this series with Cruz going down. Will be surprised if he plays the rest of this series.

Agree, I considered Naquin a AAAA player before this year

Reyes! 1 run. Wish Kip tasted the arm. Oh well

Mercado, Puig, lets go! Santana too. Nice 5th
