Indians @ Chicago....washing the White Sox

• vball10set

  Not a good sign... Kluber struggled his last outing, and is already down 2-1 in the 3rd and has thrown 50 pitches..not good.
• TBone14

  

  Kluber has given up a triple and 2 doubles in the same inning. Probably the first time he has given up 3 extra bases hits in an inning all year.
  
  And now a walk. Just laboring a bit. Offense gonna need to pick him up. Mariners have already lost and the Tigers getting spanked.

  The truth is, Corey Kluber is not God....even Kershaw has a 1.82 ERA...if you score only one run a game chances are you are going to lose. Kluber's last start could have easily been a win with a little offense. He is keeping his team in the game, but getting almost no run support.

  Thank you :rolleyes:

  9 straight hits. That's solid managerial work right there.

  Take him out, Tito, he just doesn't have it tonight.

  MLB Network just had a segment where Harold Reynolds was saying he was tipping his pitches and it was hilarious.

  This....he had already given you a quality start. He never should have started the inning after Chiz got him off the hook.
• TBone14

  

  Need some more late inning magic.
  
  Here we go in the 9th.
  
  I believe that we can win.
• BRF

  

  Two outs, two on for Dickerson.
  
  
  ahhhhhh... Pops out on a 2-0 count.
• Laley23

  

  I'm seriously amazed we have as many wins as we do with the lineup that just batted in the 9th lol.
• BoatShoes

  Damn, I really thought they'd pull it off after Chisenhall's homer. Really wanted the tribe to set the stage for a possible sweep with the bad news about Josh Gordon today.

  Agreed. This team has no business being in the hunt. Their All-Star from last year and their big free agent signings from last y ear have been disappointing/injured all year. Their opening day starter and shortstop were so bad that nobody was even upset when they were traded. McAllister, a guy they were banking on, has spent most of the year in Triple AAA.

  Indeed. We have been spoiled by Kluber. That outing should be good enough to win most nights. Gotta score runs to win.
• HitsRus

  

  How many quality starts by Kluber have we wasted with poor offense? I can think of 3 just in the last month.

  Tito might be the best move a Cleveland franchise has made since drafting Lebron.

  Ya know....... I think you're right!

  Hopefully Tito stops pitching to Abreu after that. Dude is just killing us.
• TBone14

  

  Abreu is just awesome. It is a shame he landed in the AL Central.

  Yeah...he's one of those you can't let beat you. If Dunn gets you...he gets you but you just can't let Abreu, Stanton, Cutch, Goldschmidt beat you.

  I think it was Tito last year who continued what Eric Wedge started with Miguel Cabrera. Walking him with 2 out and no one on in the 1st inning. He WAS NOT going to pitch to him.
  
  Honestly though, I think he said, 5th inning or later, Miggy was going to be walked no matter what.
