I think that was 5 straight playoff games with a homer for Springer. Might have tied or broken a record.

Didn't see the game but saw Correa went 0-4. Not sure if had bad breaks or just continued to struggle. I hope his back gets better so he gets going.

Kluber's last 4 starts have been dreadful. I miss the untouchable Kluber who was a straight up beast.

He just hasn't been the same since his back got hurt, but I'd still rather have him in there. He did have one nice knock, a shot out to the warning track in right. Rest of the offense did fine and the pitching was very good.

yeah cleveland is for sure the weakest of all the AL playoff teams

don't get why people are hyping them up so much after they finished with the least amount of wins of all AL playoff teams and despite playing a ton of games against the tigers, white sox, and royals

Playing in that division and a lack of true seeding has been their saving grace.

If you seeded the 5 AL playoff teams just on record, the Indians on merit should have had to play the AL WC game at Oakland.

The NBA changed things where Winning your division no longer means you get a top 3 seed (See: 2017-18 Miami Heat), the MLB should do the same.

Their bullpen cost them plenty of wins in the first half, that's why. Had they had this current bullpen from the start, they probably are close to 100 wins.

They are most likely screwed against the Astros though.

imagine houston without the cole and verlander acquisitions......still pretty good but not perhaps repeat WS champions.

Springer is 1 behind the record (Daniel Murphy).
