Good call since he sucks on defense

Not really, Hamilton is very good by all defensive metrics (uzr, oaa..) 

 

But of course he is still a bad hitter who is just having a hot week which occasionally happens. But as long all those guys are injured I take every help even if it is fluky.

What a terrible 2 strike pitch

3-3...

stupid ass pitch selection.

The Fightin' Ramirez's always strike against us.

The sky is falling again

62 pitches not even through 3 yet. 

Sigh.

How are these guys hitting .217?

Hanging slider.

WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU THROW THAT?????????

Terrible throw 

Seriously fuck the Indians.

can't wait til Kopech replaces Cease in the rotation

Yep blew him away with fastball and then hung the slider.  Cease looks bad today with so many uncompetitive pitches.

Never pitch to anyone named Ramirez on this team again!

Man, we can’t stop any team’s running game.  Some team is going to pick us apart in the postseason, like the Rays.

Has anyone else noticed how often Cease reaches into his pants during his starts? Is that where the goop is hidden?

?

Can Collins throw anyone out WTH

Pitchers gotta get better at pickoff moves and/or holding runners on.

66 through 3.  So many wasted pitches.

Not sure that will be the move.

We can’t even be sure that all our other starters can make it until the end of the season.  Keuchel will probably struggle to get through a full 162 game season.

Collins is great at catching pop ups!

yeah you don't want cease doing that, he'll throw the ball into the dugout

Yep, that isn't on the catchers so much, as it is on our staff overall. Doing a terrible job holding runners on, overall.

There are no (stolen base attempt) outs on the 3rd base side of 2nd base. Time to generate more solid ABs and (along with them) runs.

75% on the pitchers.
