Also, not sure if the rumor even had substance. But I wanted Ian Happ for Kipnis and Salazar so badly to happen. Happ led off game for Cubs with a bomb.
It's all about making the playoffs and being as healthy as possible going into the playoffs. I maintain the playoffs, especially the ALDS are a crap shoot. Great pitching will always give you a chance, and if the Tribe make the playoffs I give them just as much as a shot of making it to the WS as every other team that will be in the playoffs. Last year Kluber picked a terrible time to look human, E5 injured himself, and the entire lineup decided to be a pile of shit. There are a lot of guys in that lineup that have some redeeming to do.
I stand by this. Let's hope they are hot at the right time.
I didn't even remember my prediction. For some reason I thought I had 87 or 89.
As far as Divisional Series goes....it's hard to choose against the Champs who are having a similar year to last year. I'll go 3-2 Astros. So much for my preseason pick of losing in the ALCS. I don't think the INdians will get there now.
