I just hope he's ready to play by Tuesday. It might not be a bad idea to DH Eloy and play Engel in LF for the playoffs.

Poor Jose won't see anything to hit tonight.

This really is the silver lining tonight. Rodon's velocity is super encouraging. It's too bad he threw like 2 off-speed pitches all night.

I'm not the biggest Ozzie fan, but he's far better than Renteria.

He was also facing a bunch of switch hitters. His slider is much better to lefties.

I bet it's because we had a 3 run lead.

I think we need to bring someone in who has experience and a history of getting teams to the next level. Ricky never had anywhere close to a winning season before this one.

You could argue he made the wrong call to the bullpen in all 4 games this series. And absolutely egregious ones in games 2 and 4 that 100% cost us the game.

When we sucked early in the season, I thought that underachieving this year would at least get rid of Ricky. Then we got hot, clinched a playoff spot, Ricky was possibly going to win manager of the year, and now a week later he has somehow managed the team so poorly that we might be able to get rid of him while still making the playoffs. That's my glass half full view of all of this. Here's to hoping JR actually gets rid of Ricky this off-season.

Can you really blame them? The manager did some stupid shit and cost them the lead they just got.

I'd rather not play the Twins. Not sure I wanna play the A's either.

McCann on deck.

The stupid sound from their PA system is so fucking annoying.

He got hit pretty hard when they made contact. But not bad for first time out in 1.5 months.

We've been in every game this series. Ricky has just fucked up all the bullpen decisions. When you can't win on talent margin alone, the manager comes into play. It's clear Ricky has no in-game managerial skills.

I'm still wondering why Keuchel couldn't go another inning. He only had 90 pitches. You had to know the Indians were gonna empty their bench of lefties if you bring a righty in.

lmao now he uses Bummer? I want to kick Ricky in the nuts right now.

The good thing that inning is that he threw 96-97. The bad part is that he apparently was not allowed to throw anything but a fastball.

Why would you put the guy who's not a relief pitcher in this situation? Fuck off Ricky.

Wow fuck this

lol we called all fastballs there? Christ...

Cordero got unlucky as hell.

Yeah I'm not sure I like this move. Hernandez was hitting real well from the right side.

Hopefully it's them being safe.

Eloy definitely hurt himself.
