    CSX 5   CLE 0,  top 7.  A CSX 2R HR,  It's hit soon or go home Sunday afternoon. 

  • 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  ?

  • ~   It's  CSX 2  and  CLE  1  going into GAME 4  this Sunday afternoon.   

    ◆  Umpires:  HP: Todd Tichenor. 1B: Tony Randazzo. 2B: Alex Tosi. 3B: Brian Knight.  Weather:79 degrees, Sunny.  Wind:5 mph, Out To RF.  First pitch:1:10 PM CDST
      Venue: Guaranteed Rate Field.   July 30, 2023  ◆

    ●  GAME  106 GAME 4/4  CLE  (52-53 .495 still -1.5 GB MIN)  at  CSX   at 2:10 pm. It's Civale  vs  Koepech..... only 34.6% of the season is left.  ●

    ▪︎~~~~~~~~~~▪︎    PLAY BALL  !   ▪︎~~~~~~~~~▪︎

    Game 4  - On a windy day in the Windy City  !

    CLE  1   CSX  0.  top 2,  Koepech walked the bases loaded +1 run.  Whoa.  2 outs, geeezzz Jose Ramirez just struck out.   Bottom 2.

    CLE 5   CSX 0,  in top 7,  José Ramirez  2HR,   Kwan 1HR  & the rest - Batting HR Kwan (5, 5th inning off Kopech, 0 on, 0 out); Ramírez, Jo 2 (18, 5th inning off Kopech, 0 on, 1 out, 7th inning off Cronin, 1 on, 2 out).  TB Brennan; Kwan 4; Naylor, J; Ramírez, Jo 8.  RBI Gimenez (40); Kwan (37); Ramírez, Jo 3 (63). 2-out RBI Gimenez; Ramírez, Jo 2.  To top 8th -->  CLE  5-0.   

    ~   Cleveland Guardians   5 - 0 final,   good game !     Then off to  HOUSTON  for (3)  at     8, 8 and 2 EDST     games.    Enjoy your Sunday evening.     😁

    ~   SO join us in the  .500 derby !     CLE   at 8:10 pm again  Tuesday.   Enjoy your late night Monday.        😴

  • 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.

  • ~   Tuesday Night Baseball in Houston  getting to be a  "Must Win"  for the  (53-54) Guardians  every time out.

    Saw his last which looked very much like Valdez's, but with far more batters not coming within 6 inches of the ball half the time. Valdez had a lot of late movement on just about every pitch he threw no matter which type he chose. And the fastball kept changing the direction of that movement from pitch to pitch. It was something to watch. 27 batters total with the one getting a walk being called out in a double play. That's as close to a perfect game as you can get without it being perfect. Maybe signing Verlander back relieved the pressure of having to be the only Ace on the staff.

  • Guardians overcome one of the worst challenge calls (that resulted in Francona getting ejected) to beat the White Sox.

    Another sell out, fifth one of the season, tomorrow night's game in close to being sold out too.

    I guess the team found replacements for all the people who allegedly would never go back to Progressive Field after the name change.

    ~   And the box score in what will become a lot of    "must win"    games in the approximately  30% of the games left in this season.   They  are by NO means. OUT  of the AL CENTRAL race  only   -2 GB   -6 GBWC   but they have a challenging road ahead  and can not give away many games left.   It's now   AUGUST  / SEPTEMBER   baseball !

    And of course  one eye is on the  IR List and just  like in 2022 ....  the other eye is on the fine crop of rookies and younger players.      ●  Oh,  and now tonight's   promised box score  :
