Whew...dodge a bullet.

Nice play Timmy.

It sure was a waste of a massive break.

Not pretty.

Indians bailed us out on that mess of a play. Must be a full moon over Cleveland.

Just a small bump in the road on the way to todays win. Let get that run back with a few more.

Stay calm Jack. This isn't going anywhere bad.

Very cromulent!

Nova pitching at twice his usual pace. I bet McCann has something to do with that. Notice how much better defense is when you work fast.

That was easy.

Is it a coincidence that every pitcher looks better when McCann catches them? I think not.

I agree!

Welcome!

It would appear so.

Fast game and who would have guessed that with Nova pitching?

That would be the former Sox teams.

I would hope for that to be his floor.

Covey might poke his nose into the argument if he continues to pitch like last night. Yes...I know it was the Indians.

Liking the lineup. In a battle of these not so good pitchers I like our odds. Been waiting a long time to get back to .500. June 1 seems like an excellent day to accomplish this goal.

An excellent concept. Since you are from sin city...what are the odds?

Still...not much to lose other than Jerry's money.

I have been an advocate for Keuchel & Cease for quite a while. No cost in current trade chips and a chance to compete in division and wild card races. Nothing ventured nothing gained. Keuchel on a 3 or 4 year contract or only this year if that's what he wants. He would be worth the 15 million or so in fan interest and marketability.

Some on this board amaze me with their low regard for Abreu & Colome. A top run producer & a top tier closer are worth more than some scraps. The only reason to trade either at this time is for the overpayment received when a contender perceive them to be the missing piece. We can always wait until the offseason if nothing exciting is offered.

My point. They are not trying to help us.

Well I guess that trade won't be happening then.
