I have been just trying to enjoy this improbable season, but I am getting a little anxious to step a boot on the divisions neck.

I agree.........I was nervous watching the Cubs and Mets Series. Part of that nervousness comes from the schedule the Guardians are currently facing, and their starting rotation, also not to mention that they have a history to getting hot late in the season.

32 games left to decide whether this will go down as one of the most memorable seasons, or a “fun team but….” Afterthought in twenty years.

the rides been fun but the stakes have ratcheted quite a bit.

I’m not worried about them either, just would like a fairly long winning streak like them, it would give us some breathing room heading into September.

They haven't had a long losing streak either.

I wonder what the difference in cost for us would have been to get Joe Adell instead of Doyle? Adell has 4 HRs already since joining Cleveland. Cleveland only gave up a catching prospect for him and Adell also has one more year of control. He would look a lot better in the lineup than Doyle.

To add to this ......I would have loved to have Clay holmes compared to Castillo.

Holmes likely would have cost Carlson or Bonemer.

Adell is not a CF, he'd just be worse Grichuk here.

Yup Adell would have made no sense for this team. You'd rather just keep Hays or Pereira.

Twitter says the Riku Nashida is with the team currently as someone is expected to go on a bereavement leave.

My condolences to whoever it is. But God, please be Acuna or another bench guy at most.

Nishida hopefully is just an extra bench guy. I wonder if Meidroth is the one going on bereavement. Could slide Sam into 2nd and Doyle or Grichuk into LF. Not ideal. Guess we'll know by tmr.
