I am all over this. Post season baseball is so cool.

It can drag you all over the road of emotions.

I get so intense when there are 3 outs to go with a one run lead.

Post season favorites get beat frequently. You just have to get hot.

The Guardians have been a good team all year. They reached 20 games over 500 and maintained it all year.

Stilled buzzed watching MLB tonight.

It would be so sweet to send the Yankees packing.

I have great appreciation for what it takes to get to the ALCS.

Baseball can be undefinable.

A game dominated by stats. Moneyball etc. So many numbers are crunched to try and find a crack in the odds.

Decisions made based upon analytics.

Yet when giant moments happen in games momentum can swing. A clutch hit. A great defensive play. A come from behind victory.

Something like destiny can take over.

In 2021 the Braves won the World Series. That team was nowhere near as good as the 2023 team that lost to the Phillies.

Crazy stuff happened. Rosario a Cleveland cast off won MVP in the NLCS against the Dodgers. Jorge Soler a trade deadline pick up wins MVP of the World Series. They were fill in players for Ronald Acuna and Joc Peterson.

That HR by Fry and then Lane Thomas those type of moments can send teams to baseball heaven.

The last time Cleveland won a World Series in 1948. I was one year old. It is about time to win another.

Speaking of Lane Thomas, when the trade was made, it was mostly yawns and less than glowing reviews.

to be fair, his play has been yawns majority of his career. That slam was the biggest moment of his career. Couldn't have come at a better time

They played a bad game.

Hard enough to win when you play well. You can't walk three and then wild pitch two guys in.

Self inflected wounds.

Get some rest. Turn the page and go get em today.

Yanks used more bullpen arms than the Guards

Guards will be fully stocked tonight to even it up


"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Just found out that I do not need surgery after a shoulder dislocation. The x-ray showed a small fracture of the Glenoid.

The MRI came back that I am good. Just rehab.

I am available to come out of the pen tonight.

Let's go Guards

So many chances to take control in this game.

Back to Cleveland. It is a seven game series.

Win the next game.

game 3 is huge obviously. Just gotta knock a few guys in. NYY isn't all that great IMO ... and now they will be pitching their 3/4 starters

Must win obviously.

They need that spark. The big hit. The play that turns things around.

So far they have not played good baseball.

I'm a yankee fan so I've watched every game for the Yanks forever

They have been fortunate that Torres and Volpe have played well thus far. That could change

Clarke Schmidt has very little big game experience. Guards may jump on him

I think Cleveland wins today

Bonefish, Ice and Advil will set you free. I had a compound fracture of my humerus several years ago. They gave me Percocet- Couldn’t stand those,
and luckily Advil/Tylenol and ice pulled me through.

Another Cleveland team that can’t do jack squat in the post season. No excuse. There’s no cap. Go sign some quality bats

Yeah it was a great ending, but the point still stands.. at some point we have to be able to win without some once in ages type win. But I will say this, Vogt is coaching his ass off this year. I was totally meh on him to start because he was kind of an unknown, but he's really earned his stripes this season. I can't really think of anyone the tribe has had that came in and done this with no experience. The FO got that one right for sure

We couldn't figure this out either. We figured we missed a walk or something before the last out.

Edit to add: according to the PbP they did intentionally walk Rizzo.

There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.
