Yes, he can. 

Big win. 

 

 

Edwards at 2-0 like Gardens pointed out. OMG. 

Are we calling it a Hand Job? And when he gets the BS, a Blow Job? Asking for a friend.

It was cold down there yesterday!

All’s well that ends well.

What struck me immediately when they were introducing the teams was “ who are these guys?” When you play a team 19 times a year, you get to know the players on the other team pretty well.... needless to say all those guys are gone. About the only names I recognized was Jose Abreu  and Yonder Alonzo, who of course was with the Tribe last year. Of course, the Tribe wasntmuch better.

Verbal saying "CWS is not a good team" and you saying "who are these guys?" is why I was pretty steamed through much of yesterday's game, thinking "geez, we are going to lose the home opener to these guys?".

Yeah... the chi Sox made multiple miscues not even including walking in the winning and insurance run, and the Tribe could not take advantage.

This may be/ is the worst offense of any Tribe team in the Jacob’s/ Progressive Field era. People keep saying wait till Lindor and Kipnis come back.... but still SMH.

I’ve been somewhat of an apologist for Dolan... no more. They spent the off season dumping Home runs and RBIs as well as salary. It would be one thing if the team was in a truly ‘rebuilding mode ‘, but it has one of the best pitching staffs in MLB.

Those great teams of the late 90’s would have killed to have an ace like Kluber, let alone a Bauer and a Carrasco. Finally, we have a mature, solid staff... and the owner wimps out.

You gotta know Yoan Moncada and Eloy Jiménez. They were the main trade pieces a few years ago. Like the 1 and 4 overall in baseball.

To be frank, I don’t have the time not inclination to follow every teams prospects....but I do remember the Quintana and Sale trades as being blockbuster prospect deals for the Chisox. I assumed that some of those guys were from those trades. The point I was trying to make was that the Sox were unrecognizable from last year.

And Staments stinks. That's the best backup to Lindor we have?

Monday when Pittsburgh played St. Louis, Gonzalez botched a completely routine ground ball that eventually led to the tying run scoring in the ninth inning in an extra-innings loss. We're talking the sort of play that most of us could at least scoop up without difficulty.

I can’t believe you can be a utility man and have no ability to actually field. But, here we are lol.

This offense is just ridiculous. I know it’s beating a dead horse at this point, but sheesh. I can’t beleive they went into the season with these guys (even if you had Kipnis and Lindor healthy).
