Well here we go!

A 3 game series to start the season at Minnesota. 

It's a 4:10 start (Thursday) with Kluber going against Berrios. 

Game 2 is Saturday at 1:10 with Bauer going against Odorizzi. 

Game 3 is Sunday at 1:10 with Carrasco against Pineda. 

Go Tribe. 

Berrios should throw a 2-hitter versus this injury plagued lineup.

Cracking me up. 

Go Tribe.

The hot take of the Twins winning the central is dumb

Go Tribe.

Opening Day when hope springs eternal. 

Go Tribe 

Maybe this year!

It's the fifth straight year for Kluber starting the opener which ties a club record (Stan Coveleski 1917-21).

Woof.

Nice catch by Bauers in LF. Scoreless after three.

Tribe just blows a good opportunity to score as Leonys with a lead off double in the 4th. JRam and Naquin fail to move him, Santana walks (welcome back Carlos "Mr. W") and HanRam K's. Berrios is looking good and I hope Laley's earlier comment doesn't hold true. 

Naquin in the 3 hole is just laughable. 

Hammy put the curse on Kluber after 5 announcing that he had a no hitter going. Twins get first hit, a double by Buxton, he makes it to 3rd but Kluber gets out of it. 

Six complete. Both teams with only one hit.

I just heard that Tito did that to mix up the lefties and righties a little bit better.

It was my fault. Went from listening to watching and an instant hit.

Kluber elevating some pitches and pays for it

Shit, wheels falling off now. 

2 runs will win this game.

This only make sense when you put someone there who can actually hit. 

Tribe down 2-0 going to the bottom of the 8th.
