Puts Cleveland in drivers' seat to win the division most likely.Guardians win 2 of 3 = not ideal, but fine. Sox own tiebreaker and likely need to sweat out the division but will still win the Central by playing around .500 ball.Sox win 2 of 3 = pretty much puts the Central away in favor of the Sox.Sox sweep = break out the champagne.
12 hours ago12 hr If I were Getz/ Venable I would try to reconfigure the rotation so the best pitchers are going in that CLE series since winning that series would likely be a knockout blow to Cle. Currently Castillo would pitch one of those games.

I'd even go as far as saying Castillo should just be the mop up guy.

9 hours ago9 hr Orioles definitely have the pitching matchup advantage in this series. Hopefully they can take advantage again.

Hopefully they can take advantage again.I won’t trust Cleveland to die until they’re out of the divisional race mathematically and are eliminated from the playoffs.Playing a part in both of those potential outcomes would be one of the biggest opportunities for growth our team has all year.It could be something they carry with them into the offseason and into next year.
5 hours ago5 hr Not the greatest pitcher for Balt...could be their last gasp if they lose a couple more games here.
5 hours ago5 hr Of course Clevelands s%*# ass offense would be the first one to blow up this pitcher.
5 hours ago5 hr Baltimore helped them out with some crappy outfield defense. Tavares misplayed two balls.

5 hours ago5 hr Noticed that when Sox play Royals, it looks like they will miss Cameron and Wacha for now. That would be huge
