This is a big game.

The next five are big games. You don't want to lose 2 of 4 to the Orioles.

 

Ideally, you'd like to be at least 2 up on the Twins come Tuesday. 3 games would be even better, but you can't expect the Indians to win tomorrow.

This current group of guys have collectively hit .177 with a .248 OBP against Guthrie. With Rios, TCQ and A.J. putting up the best numbers against him. Of our current roster, only Lillibridge and Viciedo have never faced him. God, i love baseball-reference.com

guthrie is not bad at all and only reason numbers are bad due being on orioles.

He owns us. I remember last year when his ERA was in the 6's, he shut us down rather easily. If we win today, I'll be pretty shocked tbh.

One more game closer to Ripkin's record.

Konerko and Qwint In are going to have good games today. Turn and burn on Guthrie's hard fast ball.

I like Castro catching Buehrle today. I see Buehrle having a masterful start.

Buehrle still favored -133.... if I still wagered I'd be with the O's today.

Accuscore has the O's winning after simulating the game 10,000 times.

Twins down 1-0.

Cleveland takes a 1-0 lead in the first

Twins down 1-0.

 

JINX!

3-0....and Twins will have to call up Perkins to start on Wed for Slowley

Don't stop bringing the good news!

Nice line drive by Rios there.

Come on Carlos. Lets give Mark a nice 2-0 lead.

That ball just wouldn't come down.

Damn, thought that was going to drop. You can tell Stone is getting pissed at Rios' base running, as he was criticizing him for watching the ball on Konerko's double.
