  "...“We've talked about not just Game 4 but Games 3, 5, 6 and 7, because there's a little bit of ambiguity there, with Trevor and his finger, and with Clevinger not being stretched out,” Francona said before Saturday’s Game 2. “So there are some options I think for us moving forward. ..."
  
  "...He, Kluber, said he’s open to anything. If he pitches Game 4, he also would be in line to start Game 7 next Saturday on short rest. ..."

  Francona didn't say anything about a concern that if he held Kluber for game 5 and normal rest for the best chance for him to be most effective, that the Indians would sweep it in game 4 and that would give Kluber 10 days days straight of rest to get stale and not sharp for the World Series, did he?

  I don't know. Cliff was routinely 91-92 and could hit 93. This guy hasn't hit 90 yet today I don't think and he's like 24. He's not going to develop that at this point.

  There's no real doubt that the Indians are winning Game 5. Last game was a fluke, this game should be fairly straight forward in a win.

  Also Go Tribe and fuck you, Joey Bats!

  My good luck shirt that hasn't lost a playoff game until yesterday was finally retired.

  Pillar may be the only non doosher in the lineup .

  Lol at Jays not working Gerritt at all. Reminds me of the Reds approaches minus Votto

  "Get this kid a Merritt badge"....TBS is just the worst.
  
  It'll be interesting to see the adjustments the 2nd time through the lineup. Also to see if Tito lets them see him a 3rd time in the game

  Once thru the lineup. Hopefully he can survive round two. Lets get some more runs.

  If they keep wailing desperately at every pitch near the zone it's an easy call for the catcher.
  
  They need to work him. He's a rookie on the road in the postseason...terrible plan by Jays
