thats true...i dunno...

i think the "injury" thing was a little over-stated.

If that's true, then yeah, he's going 100-115 pitches if he's not getting whacked.

Very much, and especially with him.

I'm really, really torn about who I want to win this series. My friend and I want to go to a road game if the Jays make the next round and I've got pros and cons about travelling to each city.

I've been to Fenway and it is an awesome experience but nothing beats a playoff game at the Jake. NOTHING!

My rooting interest this postseason:



1. Sox










2. Cubs (would love to see Theo end another title drought, would love to see Lester get another ring, just a lot of fun players to watch on that team)
3. Indians (like the Cubs, long title drought; would love to see Tito get another ring, some favorite players in guys like Kipnis/Napoli/Kluber/Miller)



4. Dodgers (win one more for Vin, would like to see Kershaw get a ring)









5. Jays (the one division rival I don't hate, a lot of fun players to watch)
6. Rangers (would be cool to see Beltre get a ring)
7. Nats (liked them more when they had a good Ryan Zimmerman)






































8. Giants (enough with the EYBS)

Not a single team in the postseason I hate.

Sox
Indians
Nats (Dusty gets one, and frankly I like a lot of their players)
Dodgers (for kershaw and scully)

Screw everyone else.

if Corey Kluber comes through this afternoon the Tribe will be in really good shape.

Should be interesting for Price....his postseason numbers are trash- but historically he dominates the Indians....he has a LOT of pressure on his shoulders though as going home down 0-2 with Bucholtz and Rodriguez scheduled for Games 3 and 4 sounds less than ideal.

that Red Sox lineup is freaking scary---- their 8 and 9 hitters hit bombs last night. Lets hope Kluber can show why he is among the candidates for his 2nd Cy Young award this year.

Don't need a pep talk in cheating.

Sox already had their own scandal. Don't need any more lessons from the Master Cheater.

postseason stats have little predictive value whatsoever. I'm sure most people didn't see Hamels struggling like that given his 3.03 postseason ERA entering yesterday's game. Look at Lester's last few postseason games.

That's not to say I think Price will pitch a CGSO. His last few starts of the season were pretty bleh.

He was phenomenal in his last start for Tor until Baustista let that popup fall in.

In the back of my mind I fear an Indians sweep and a Browns win. If that happens this weekend will go down in infamy as the Cleveland Steamer.

Thanks TBS, I had no idea Hanley never played 1B prior to this season! It's not like you were shoving this fact down our throats last night or anything.
