Actually this is even bigger that just a Cleveland story it's soon if not already a sports media event, the CLEVELAND INDIANS are the lead sports story on outlets everywhere including outside the USA.

Good luck getting tickets in Cleveland if they win the next three in Seattle.   (meanwhile the beloved BROWNS are in search of a first win....and an identity)

And when the CAVS finally broke the 1964 winless championship streak it splashed everywhere this would be much bigger.

And yes it it is on the Baseball forum.....for those few that post there.

Astros

Thing is Tito (when did Terry become Tito, Jr.?) has to set his rotation for the playoffs yet hold off the Astros and try to catch the Dodgers.

Seattle: Bauer, Carrasco, Kluber <--- these are the current projection... I did not find more. http://cleveland.indians.mlb.com/news/probable_pitchers/index.jsp?c_id=cle

Twins: Clevinger, Tomlin, Bauer <--- would be the next in the rotation

White Sox: Carasco, Kluber, Clevinger <--- would be the next in the rotation

That doesn't set up Kluber for the first round where you'd want him to start Game 1 and be ready for Game 5, if needed. And I'd think you'd want a rotation of Kluber - Carrasco - Bauer - Tomlin for the playoffs and none of that is set either. Clevinger is a non-issue as word is he goes to the pen for the playoffs.

Might have to spot in Salazar for Carasco and manufacture a game out of the pen vs. CHI limiting Kluber to 3 innings or so as if it was his throwing day between starts... maybe same for Carasco with Salazar in long relief. Try to strike a balance without giving too much rest. Might even give Kluber the Bauer start ending the Twins series... again in a limited, "throwing day" type start.

It'll be interesting...

Go Tribe!

Go Browns!

[mjp28]

In Seattle Cleveland pitchers 49 wins Seattle 9 wins......then they go back home vs Minnesota and the lowly WSX, mission impossible maybe not.

Meanwhile our BROWNS are a push at Indy without luck, but we'll take any win, soon.

Seattle always seems to play us tough and Twins will be likely be playing for their playoff lives. ChiSox are mailing it in... checking out kids.

But still have to set that Post-season rotation...

I really don't know shit about pro baseball and give a shit even less. Same for the NBA.  I put that there just to troll.

What country do you live in?

Indians are simply on another level right now. The stats during the streak(and also the new streak) are incredible.
