Kinsler looks even more lost...I think he makes weaker contact than Vaz.

Thank God this is the last time we have to listen to these ESPN clowns all year. Hopefully they redo the entire sunday night team. They are obnoxious, overbearing and horrible at this. I think they have the last Friday Yankee/Sox game. I liked the JDM mic segment and their tribute to David Wright, one of the classiest players in baseball.

Mitch Moreland is borderline awful at picking balls out of the dirt.

Cuevas - what an amazing 5 innings tonight.
Watching the Pats (yuck), listening to Joe C and Tim N.

These Indians just faced Cuevas for 5 innings. They don't deserve to win this and hopefully they won't.

Tomlin had an ERA over 6 and FIP over 7 coming into today; can't strike guys out and gives up tons of homeruns. Yet, most of our hitters looking bad against him...

Ugh, what a struggle tonight. Just lose the game, go back to Fenway, and clinch the best record there. This isn't worth the hassle.

or playing baseball period I can't wait for the Ockimey ERA to begin. It's got to be better than Moreland. Even though I agree, and have been pretty unimpressed with his ability to pick balls these last two years, if your main issue with Mitch is his defense, I've got bad news for you...

The offense broke out for one game against New York and reverted back to what they've been doing lately. You're biggest contributors on offense in this series outside of Mookie (who played only tonight) is Sam Travis and Lin. Hopefully it magically erases itself in the playoffs.

He's not good at anything in baseball besides fielding his position (ground balls toward first base). He's just a replacement level player. Very replacement level. Pearce should get some looks this postseason even though he is 36 too.

This game just needs to end. Robby Scott should be able to end this game on a walk off by the Indians. Lol

It's a bit strange that on a 105+ win team, there's reasonable debate to be had about who should play second, third, first, and catcher in the playoffs.

Would be nice if Benni and Bogaerts starts hitting. Both are iced cold lately.

People are a bit hard on Moreland. He is having an identical season to last. He’s serviceable, and he’s cheap at a position where upgrades might come dear. Fine... Shaw blahblah. But if the guys who are supposed to hit do, he’s fine.
His picks are not great, but he’s made some nice plays on pop ups, and he’s steady. Great to pick it, but, hey, don’t mess up the throw.
