First person to subscribe to my blog or podcast and PM me proof gets 2 tickets to tomorrows Cleveland game for free. Good seats. Breathing Orange Fire on Spotify or Apple.
We getting swept in trap games unless the AAA brigade turns it on realizing they have to perform or they are getting optioned.
In an unrelated comment, why is Jazz Chisolm on the all-star team? Altuve ahead of him in every stat. I already know the answer, because he plays in New York.
Good call by the org to push Gordon back to today. Aside from Gusto having a good day, we now have 2 lefties, a lefty heavy pen, and Hunter Brown going this series. Cleveland as a team has a paltry .607 OPS vs. lefties, so we're set up nice.... on paper. Naturally Cleveland is probably gonna light up the scoreboard.
WWW. Indians are bad, when everyone thinks it is a trap series, it won't. Likely taking this series, sweep maybe a stretch.
https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/...spot-but-dodgers-tigers-arent-going-anywhere/ #1 in power rankings - The Astros only have 24 games remaining against teams currently with a record of .500 or better and six of those are against the Red Sox (who are only one game over).
Anybody following the bizarre story of how the Cleveland pitcher was suspended due to questionable "first pitch" usage on two occurrences... as part of a potential connection to gambling? First of all, whoever is betting on "first pitch strike vs. balls" has serious problems. Secondly... there's no way that some random MLB person picked up on this based on 2 "wild" first pitches on isolated games. This was likely tipped off. Thirdly... now that gambling is everywhere, its only a matter of time before more of these tendencies or patterns (or just blatant point-shaving manipulation) starts to become a yearly violation (in all sports). All that being said, where there's smoke there's fire. If they were already able to get to one Cleveland player, who knows how many are truly involved.
