Now that the trade deadline has passed i went back to hoping all our rivals keep losing. Nothing funnier then see them be buyers then fall apart in the second half.

Nothing funnier then see them be buyers then fall apart in the second half. Nice to see it happen to a team other than us like it always used to seem. First or second place at deadline only to slowly dwindle the next 2 months. Edited August 29, 2017 by soxfan2014 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 How much of Cleveland's success is Francona? Scary how good he is. Cleveland suddenly is on quite a run. For sure the Indians will win the AL. Back to the Series. Will it be a rematch with the Cubs or somebody else though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Boston would prefer that to Cleveland in the ALDS - Sale has been iffy against Cleveland, so packing him in 2x in a 5 game series leaves little margin for error.

Agreed. My thinking is that if Boston and Houston play in one of the ALDS series, that series goes 5 and the pitching staff will be tired from that Houston offense. This assumes Boston and Cleveland win their ALDS'. Now Boston has to face Cleveland ( Sale's kryptonite) in a 7 game series with a tired pitching staff and at least one more start under Sale's belt from the Houston series. This is the part that makes me chuckle. Edited September 12, 2017 by BlackSox13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sir Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 The Indians are going to win again, bringing the streak to 19. They have favorable pitching matchups the next two days, including Kluber tomorrow, so they could very well tie the MLB record of 21, set by the Cubs in 1935. The 1916 Giants won 26 in a row, but there was a tie in the middle of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would, for me, be more impressive than the Heat's 27-game streak in '13. Mostly due to the randomness and unpredictability that is the game of baseball.

They are dominating. +100 run differential, averaging a 7-2 victory every night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmarComing25 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 On August 25th the Dodgers were 20 games ahead of the Indians. 18 days later and now they're only 4 games ahead.

This is why it's laughable when media outlets start talking "best team ever" or " will anyone have a chance against the Dodgers (or x team currently hot ala Indians now)?" in July or August.....Gotta love the baseball.

The Indians are hot, and that is great for them, but cooling off is going to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except I want to say the Sox were still playing about .500 ball during that stretch. They got almost caught because Cleveland went nuts. The Dodgers are actually collapsing.
