Santana is now .429 career with the bases loaded!

The Pat Tabler of the 21st century.

Detroit must envy our deep talented bullpen. We have at least three pitches who would be closers for them: Allen who is terrific, Shaw who is a little less reliable, Carrasco who's stuff is as good as anyone's.

Awesome start to the second half of the season !

I was hoping for three wins but with a sweep more than feasible, the team has exceeded my expectations for this weekend.

Good job !

It is only the 4th inning.....things aren't looking good for Tomlin who just gave up a 2 run bomb to Hunter.

Down 0-4

Gomes breaks up Smyly's no hitter with a double with 2 out in the 5th.

Bottom of the 5th and Aviles still sucks. Missed a SB throw one pitch before Lee would have struck out #3.

CC Lee struck out Cabrerra, so no damage done, but Aviles still sucks.

Aviles gets a leadoff single....still sucks.

Kipnis with a perfect bunt single runners on first and 2nd for A-Cab

Who strikes out trying to get 5 runs with one swing.

Brantley pops up to short right....runners stay.

Santana up and hits it to the exact same spot Brantley did.

On to the 6th.

Gomes got a home run.

Kipnis got caught stealing in the 8th (even though replay showed he didn't) and that took the slight breeze out of the sails.

We lost.

well 3 out of 4 ain't bad....let's just hope we don't carry on the same with the Twinkies.

It's hard to complain about Tomlin who achieves more than his talent level, but there are certainly better options than him to complete a rotation, It's easy to see why the Indians would prefer to have Carrasco start, but that option probably will not be tested again until next ST and by then Carlos may have established himself as the No. 2 man in the pen.

and thinking about the pen, Cody Allen is a real pleasure to have out there. He's so much more of a classic closer than Wickman or Borowski or Perez or Axford: when he's sharp, which is nearly always, he overpowers hitters and can be counted on for vast number of strikeouts. What a find!

More good news for Salazar, he will get the opportunity to show the Indians his progress when he makes a start for them at Minnesota on Tuesday night.

Hey! Aviles ran out a grounder and beat the throw.

He's temporarily off my shit list.

AND he just stole 2nd!

Made a hell of a catch on the warning track last inning too.

Must have ate his wheaties.

Dickerson in to pinch hit for Cabrerra.....he pulled something when he threw to first hope it's not serious.

Dickerson on fire gets another hit bringing Aviles home from 3rd.

2-1 Twinkies.

Why is Bradley not playing?

IDK haven't heard anything from the STO feed.
