Baseball seems unimportant with the news of Cookie being diagnosed with leukemia. But here we are.
Tribe needs to take both to keep pressure and momentum going on Twins. Regroup and reassess at the break.
Fuck leukemia, best of luck/treatment to Carlos
I had a bad feeling about Carrasco and that is exactly what I thought it was going to be.
Go Tribe.
Get the Cup.
Sure hope all goes well for Carlos.
This two gamer feels like an obvious split but both teams are playing well.
Awful news on Carrasco.
Lots of Tribe fans in Cinci.
Bieber up with the bases loaded two out and BRF loves it.
He grounds out.
2-2 B6. (2 Lindor solo shots, one leading off the game)
Lindor 2
Puig 2
Middle of 7th
Amir Garrett being out on 10 day dl May be the deciding factor in this game
Man, Perez is killing it. Good win

I know offense is like 90% of what matters in baseball, but not at the catcher spot. I just don’t see how he isn’t an AS. Sanchez and him should've made it. He’s the best defensive catcher and his offense isn’t far off from everyone not named Sanchez.
Terrible news about Carlos. Sending positive thoughts his way.
Tribe wins 7-2
WIN FOR CARLOS
Bieber Fever
Down with The Biebs
Lindor, Bauers and Perez.......Oh My
Party at Bobby Tolan's
Go Tribe
Perez has certainly come around on being given the reins at catcher. At the start of the season, we are like .....ehhhhh.
Now it looks like the powers that be were right for once.

I was perfectly fine with Perez over Gomes because I didn’t think Gomes was all that great defensively, and Perez was possibly the best in baseball. I never expected this out of him at the plate. Well, I did...but as a seasons total lol.
I really believe he is what makes some of these young guys work out so well for the Tribe time and again. Don’t think it’s a surprise he is always Bauers personal catcher. Not just calling a game, but he generates so many borderline strikes because he receives the pitches so well, and then is able to frame them because of that. Also think I saw he is tops in baseball at wild pitch avoidance. Basically expected wild pitches he blocks and keeps runners from advancing. Couple with his throwing out of base stealers...

Bad but better
Yeah... time to eat my words on the Gomes deal. Trust in Antonetti.
It would be great to see the Tribe complete the sweep and keep the pressure on.

They really are. I’m so glad some of the guys aren’t wearing sleeves. Even Joey’s cut off sleeves look awesome.

You guys are loco. They need to burn those things between innings. Wtf...
I should clarify, the jerseys are great. The sleeveless guys look ridiculous
Rocking the Big Klu look. Awesome. Laley is objectively wrong here.
I was complaining about Mercado not playing but wow Greg Allen!
Justin posted what I was thinking.....Ted Kluszewski!
And, yes, helluva catch by Allen.
Bauers adds a two run two out shot for a 4-0 lead.
Reds get a run in B5 and are still batting.
