Absolutely love the taking Chris Sale out here move.
He doesn't have the stuff tonight. Save the arm/save the pitches.

Indians have Sale's number, and have for a while. Glad he's out, but it doesn't bode well for the postseason.

given the way the series has gone, Heater will probably pitch 3 no run innings and get the W.

That first pitch wasn't a strike....but Nunez wasn't even trying up there.
Swing the damn bat.

Those were two of the worst ABs I've seen all year.
Every time Mookie has a good AB, he seems to follow it with a terrible one.

Who is giving Hanley the go ahead to swing 3-0....
Man I need that idiot out of the lineup for ever.

Rather that than have him chase more sliders. would far rather he took a few, see if he could get on for Devers. Not a team type of play there by him. He is under .200 for his last 10 games.

Not a team type of play there by him. He is under .200 for his last 10 games. Yeah, but, did you see location? It was middle of the plate and up. Plus, Devers is struggling a bit also. I get it though, I am normally not a fan of swinging on 3-0.

I'd literally rather our replacement level hitter, batting in the 4 hole no less, work the walk. He should be taking til he has two strikes.

The other issue is that Hanley's impotence is causing Devers to have to lead off too many innnings. No reason he should be hitting clean up - but I've been saying that for weeks.

Well, we were due for a game like this - really sloppy

Hanley has a chance to cut the lead.
Instead as usually he does nothing.
Cleveland than immediately adds to the lead the next half inning.

This stuff happens from time to time. I am not gonna throw the pitching under the bus. They didn't walk em on purpose. Team has been playing great.

I know they weren't doing it on purpose, but when you walk a lot of guys, event he most innocent of singles like all the ones from this Urshela guy will score runs.
