I’ve had bad success as the series starter this year. So there is only one way to go!

Go Tribe!

My effort to not suck starting threads isn’t going well.

So after the Tomlin appearance the other night, I looked up the Tribe stats on most homers given up this year.  Of course, Kluber leads with 22, BUT Tomlin is tied with him now. Tomlin has about one fourth of the innings that Kluber has.  When I get some time, I will post a list of HR/inning. 

When I was looking through the list, Plutko stuck out to me as a guy who is giving up a lot of homers per inning. And then today, add 3 more in 6. 

Neil Ramirez and Dan Otero are also of concern, too. 

On the good side, one of the best has been Oliver Perez.

And we have a new franchise record. 

Lindor is the first ever 40-30-20 player. 

(Doubles, homers, stolen bases)

And he now has 6 first at bat homers this season.  (record is 7 by ..........Sizemore)

Gonzalez is not very good—have a feeling he’ll be watching the post season on tv like the rest of us.

So odd that Yandy hit his first Major League HR last night. Dude is built like a HR hitter.

Yandy is such a good fucking hitter. Drives me nuts we can’t find s spot for him. And if he ever learns to elevate (launch angle) he will put up 40+ easily.

He also waits longer on pitches, hence a lot of opposite field hits. If he turned on more of those pitches he might have a few more dingers.

It’s actually 3 really good outings in a row. And it does appear his curve is back to working.

That said, I want to see about 9 more innings out of him like this lol.

Yes. 

Congratulations, you won a series for us!

And I'm going to put in another unsung hero vote for Greg Allen.
