Two homers by Jose, G's breeze to a series win vs the Royals.

Shortstop Amed Rosario has been traded to the Dodgers.
It will be interesting to see how this shakes up... You have Andres Gimenez, who signed a $105 mill contract playing second, but he's actually a shortstop. Does he slide over to short? Or does he stay at second and one of Arias, Freeman or Brayan Rocchio in AAA become the shortstop of the future?

CLE 4 CSX 3, bottom 6, and a big K by Bibee on to top 7.

Looks like Gabriel Arias will get the first shot at nabbing the shortstop position.
Andres Gimenez is a lock at second with his $105 mill contract (or short if they move him over to his regular position), need to figure out who is the other guy up the middle... Arias? Freeman? Rocchio at AAA?
Might see some trades this offseason to thin out the glut of young middle infielders.

Trade Deadline is Tuesday, 6pm.
I keep seeing Aaron Civale trade rumors.
On one hand, that makes little sense. The Guardians hold control of him for two more seasons. On the other hand, the team should go in to Opening Day next season with Bieber, McKenzie, Quantrill, Allen, Williams and Bibee still. Six starters for five spots.
And Civale, who has not been the most durable of pitchers, probably won't have a higher trade value than he has right meow. He's been really good since coming back from his early season injury.

The Guardians have yet again got a decent group of good starters and a decent group of middle/long relief pitchers with setup pitchers - and - a 100 mph closer who can spot his pitches. Isn't that the formula for a winning baseball team ? SO with Civale and his durability issues coupled with the best farm system in MLB make this a done deal. Oh yes what can they get in return ?
Primary need : run production. Almost sounds too easy, so what is (who is) left out there ?

Astros and Dusty have done a great job of hanging in with the Rangers throughout the last couple of months
despite the loss of Altuve, Alvarez and multiple starting pitchers. They are suddenly much more dangerous as
the first two just rejoined the team this weekend. Valdez became much more hitable his last couple of outings,
so we'll see where that goes in tonight's game.
