Because as of now, it's opener.Where are you seeing Monday? Usually they have the one day between season and playoffs

Even the one game they won was because Cleveland's offense is inept..........Red Sox did not give a s%*# and that will catch up to them v Yankees. KARMA!!!As trash as the Red Sox offense was in that series Cleveland still only out-scored them by one run. I think the most frustrating part of this recent stretch by Cleveland is that they never look good but still keep winning.

Only a home run in Boston.

A little worried that the whole mood around the organization is a little too satisfied. I sure as hell am not -- 2 seed vs. 6 seed is the difference between a glide path to the ALCS and an unrested ringer, on the road, for an exhausted team that seems likely to look a lot like the As series in 2020.Yeah. I’m sure the entire organization is satisfied and just said “screw it” for today’s game. Only the fans aren’t satisfied. The players are completely satisfied and don’t care about tonight’s game. The organization from the players to the manager to the front office have no idea about the difference between the 2 and 6 seed.

Letdown games, trap games, and not coming out fully motivated (despite intellectually understanding the importance of a game) are things that never happen in sports. They're a totally ridiculous and unheard of concept, not a well known phenomenon that fans and players alike have observed and acknowledged throughout the history of sports. (Sorry, was the sarcasm laid on thick enough to match your tone?)This team has been resilient and I expect them to keep on being so. But they do have to guard against letdown effect here.

Somehow within 20 minutes of the end of the game, they are "hammered" it's called celebrating. My guess is they had fun and were perfectly fine come this morning.Trap games occur because you look beyond your opponent. Every game is a playoff game until we are set at WC or Division champs.
