Royals held on, which means we could clinch as early as tonight. I don’t know, though - looks like El Gaucho Pequeño is getting the start. Doesn’t often bode well...

And the start leaves much to be desired...
 
Is Snell pitching for the Tigers? One hit? At home? WTF?
 
get the malaise out before the playoffs...because they are weak right now
 
Team hasn't been able to hit for weeks it seems like. One hit against Boyd through 5? Woof.

It’s strange how this team struggles so hard with pitchers who can’t throw over 90-92mph. Every pitch seems offspeed and they can’t adjust. I think Yandy will bail us out in the end.
 
Back to back solo Bombs

And then Welcome to Cleveland Josh!
 
Donaldson's shot to the porch was pretty majestic. The dugout was lit!!!
 
Not much of a believer in a bullpen turning it on and go, go, go. Baseball is a weird sport, but bullpens need to follow the consistency thing. Hand is like the only silver lining.

If the offense doesn't fail this team, the bullpen will damn sure.
 
2 weeks to right the ship...hard to believe they will...the whole season has been like this...playoffs are going to be a complete mystery for this team...

You’re all over the place in this post. Quit being a whiny little bitch and let the chips fall where they may.
 
Rumors of Miller’s return to form were apparently premature. He was a mess tonight. 5 batters faced, 2 hits and a walk. WOOF.
 
I think having a healthy Trevor Bauer that can give us a reliable 6-7 innings a start is going to be our make or break factor.

Kluber/Bauer/Carrasco/Clevinger is a tough as hell top-4 to beat, but when it turns into Kluber/Carrasco/Clev/Bieber, the water gets a bit murkier. Need a healthy Bauer for the postseason because I don't trust this bullpen at all outside of Brad Hand.
