Nap had an awesome year and virtually vanished in the playoffs.
Pretty sure there are other guys out there that can hit 25-30 Homeruns and some decent (80+) RBI #'s with Kip and Lindor in front of him.

Love the guy but I went from being excited to see him come up to looking to see if he's gonna be the last out of the inning or who's coming up after he gets his 4 pitch strikeout/line out.
Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everyone you meet.

infield is top notch. OF is not. Brantley in LF helps a lot. Yandy either moves Ramirez back to the OF, or takes at least the right hand half of an OF platoon. Naquin had six great weeks, but his bat disappeared and his defense is not good enough. Chisenhall is decent, no more. Zimmer is not ready. Guyer is a nice platoon player. I'd take Davis again although preference is to have more than 1 everyday OF rather than platoon everywhere.

I was listening to The Really Big Show from Cleveland this morning for a little bit and I guess there were a lot of ticked off Tribe fans on social media last night.

I really don't know how anybody can be ticked off with this team or manager. Sure, we're all a little sad and disappointed. You get this far you want to finish it. And yeah, maybe there was a couple things some people would have did differently than Tito. But this team surpassed all our expectations. It was an extremely fun season to watch. This is why I get the Extra Innings package every year, hoping for a fun summer like this one. And it was a classic World Series.

Speaking of which, only two teams have ever lost a World Series game 7 in extra innings, and we are both.

We have a window the next few years. Maybe, hopefully, we can actually finish the job.

But I am extremely proud of this team and the organization this year. And thankful for many hours of enjoyment. One of the few times in recent years I got my money's worth... ;)
