Nice start by the Bulls. Very high energy. I doubt we'll keep that up for long though.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 27, 2016 -> 01:24 PM) Cause he had his best half a year ever on the Sox, duh. That's kind of dope though. He made the best throw of his life gunning out Cuddyer at home in game 163!

Ken Griffey Jr will be on the cover of MLB 17 The Show. What I found kind of interesting is that he's wearing a Sox hat in one of the pictures on the cover.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Oct 26, 2016 -> 11:47 AM) I hope it rains and everything gets pushed back a day. Kluber on full rest for game 4. Rain outs will favor the Indians big time.

QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Oct 26, 2016 -> 07:52 AM) But isn't this the same thing Red Sox and Blue Jays fans were thinking in prior rounds? This is what I've been thinking all postseason. The only problem is that the Indians haven't lost a single game started by anyone other than Kluber yet. It's baffling. Let's also not pretend that the Red Sox and Blue Jays suck at hitting or something.

QUOTE (whitesoxjr27 @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 10:50 PM) Thought I heard talk of Salazar coming back? As a reliever.

Indians win the game they had to win. If they can steal one of the starts by Bauer or Tomlin, they'll be looking pretty good.

If the Indians even had one of Salazar or Carrasco, they'd be the easy favorites in this series.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 10:45 PM) No clue why Maddon doesn't play Contreras every game Yup. He's easily their 4th best hitter after Bryant, Rizzo, and Zobrist.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 10:44 PM) Why did Maddon let Ross face Miller with the bases loaded instead of pinch hitting Soler? Ross was replaced defensively anyway so what was the difference? Seemed like a waste of their best opportunity, get a power bat in there. Miller would make Soler his b****. Ross is at least patient enough to not swing at crap.

Contreras should have been on third.

Why let the Cubs get a look at Cody Allen Francona?

The Cubs are feeling what the Giants felt when they gave up 2 homers to pitchers. Roberto Perez is a pretty bad hitter.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 10:35 PM) So can anyone tell me why Maddon got so cute with his lineup? Did he really start a guy who hasn't seen live pitching in month higher in the order than Baez? So overrated. Here's hoping this trend continues. Schwarber actually did pretty well.

Save Cody Allen. Use Shaw instead.

That's the meatiest pitch I've seen in a while.

Ball game. Roberto f***ing Perez. The dude that hit .183 this season. lmao

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 10:25 PM) Miller couldn't throw his fastball for a strike. He got squeezed a few times.

I gotta wonder why the Indians don't hit Jose Ramirez leadoff. He gets on base way more than Davis and has the speed to steal bases.

Cubs get 50/50 call. What new?

QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 10:16 PM) Indians doing what they've been doing all postseason. Ho hum Except the Cubs were actually able to get runners on base against Miller. That doesn't bode well for Cleveland for the rest of the series. They need Miller to be what he was against the Blue Jays to make up for their lack of starting pitching.

Indians need an insurance run. I don't trust Cody Allen. He's a bit wild.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 10:13 PM) Bruh All of sports media, Facebook, and Reddit would have been unbearable for me to visit.

Miller's sliders to Schwarber in that AB were so nasty.

Can't wait for Schwarber to hit a 3 run shot to tie this somehow...
