The website lists Kluber as Sunday's starter. Are they skipping Tomlin?

Go Tribe!!

I heard something on the radio about him being skipped. 

Go Tribe. 

Go Tribe.

Time to get well and feast on some bottom feeders.

AL Central sucks. Please destroy it this season.

Still early though....or do you mean for Cleveland to destroy it?

doesn't matter how early it is, it sucks--and it will still suck at the end of the season

I think he means for Cleveland to destroy it. As I mentioned on a previous thread, I don't think this team is all that good but is very fortunate to be in this division. They should eat the other teams in the Central alive and finish with a fairly comfortable cushion at the end of the season. If you look at their record against + .500 teams, it sucks. Just beat up on the patsies and hope you get hot in the playoffs.

Team reminds me of 1997. Step back from previous years, but got hot and beat better teams in the AL to make the WS.

I see that the Blue Jays picked up Urshela.

We traded him. Cash or PTBNL.

My bad.

I should have said "acquired". 

How much longer do the Indians struggle with Kipnis before going after someone else? Is there a prospect near ready?

Yandy Diaz can play 3rd, and move Ramirez to 2nd. I’d prefer to go all in with Machado, though.

That would be sweet

THIS!

I’ve been saying it since the off-season Tribe needs to add Manny. There just isn’t a true logical reason not too, unless you’re one of those fans who gets mad at management for “mortgaging the future” while also lambasting them for not “striking during the limited window”.

Seirously, they have built this team for the last 2 years, this year, and probably next. If lucky, we get a 5th true window to win. You have to go all out in seasons like these, and Machado instantly makes the Tribe one of the top 3 teams in baseball. Maybe better if his addition helps the rest of the lineup as well.

Well, Kipnis out of the 2-hole, thankfully. 

Listening to Tito...I cringed when he said Kipnis is so good at getting the bunt down, as one of the reasons he hates moving him. Lol

As fate would have it, Kipnis did not get the bunt down in a dumb fucking time to bunt.

Gonna pull a BRF apparently. 2 our grand slam for Brantley. 9-4 indians. Terrible pitching all over

Ha ha!  Good job!

Looks like Brantley in the 2 hole is working out pretty well!

Go Tribe.

Knowing how damn good Brantley was for a couple years and what I’ve seen this year....I think he can still be a 120-130 OPS+ guy with a .350 OB%.....and if he is I like that guy hitting 2nd

Good lord, Bauer...and our bullpen is garbage
