  Have to play them at some point... might as well find out how good this team really is sooner than later.

  Yeah, we will get a pretty good gage on them. I hate that we won't be at full power for this stretch...really need Grady and Pronk. But hey, this team has found a way to win without them so far, so hopefully they keep finding ways to win.

  Not really worried. We have a great cushion and we've proven capable of beating good teams and great pitching.

  Tribe is already 2-0 over this 47 game stretch. If they go 27 and 20...the division race is over.

  Talking about Sizemore being back this Friday.

  Also have to factor in the rest of the division has to play the same teams. Also, the Tribe got 2 of 3 of their west coast trips out of the way.

  27-20 is .570 baseball which alone at that pace alone would get to 92 wins. If they were to play 27-20 over this stretch, we could start talking about 100 wins.
  
  While I would love 27-20, I would be fine with 23-24 or 24-23, especially with how banged up this club is right now.

  Alex White goes to the DL. Talbot coming back this week. I guess Carrasco gets to stay in the rotation for the time being.

  Like I said...the division race would be over if that happens.
