How long do you think Nelson can go? I mean do we get the full Nelson or just the half Nelson?

Lee... Why do you wanna hurt me? LOL. I'll make sure to ask for extra cheese next time...

I dont care what you say, as corny as that joke was, you snickered just a bit when you read it. its funny even if incredibly stupid.

We get so many people on here arguing, a stupid ultimate dad joke is good for morale.

I loved it. Hope you read my comment in a sarcastic whimper, that was my intent.

As long as it's not ignorant.. that's stepping over the line..

The Tribe has scored 14 runs in three games against the Sox, not counting the ghost runner that scored in the 8th yesterday. That's not bad, especially since Rodon started one of those games. Not only hitting but also speed was a big factor as the Indians stole two bases and Amed scored from first on a double that did not get anywhere near the wall.

Karinchak has now given up seven runs in his last four innings. He might need three days off. But he made a nice pitch to Abreu to end the game.

Shaw was awesome in going through the middle of their order in the 8th.

Zimmer had another hit but first base remains a black hole in the order.

The bottom four hitters in the White Sox lineup combined to score five runs and drive in three. It's frustrating to see the Indians' pitchers hold their first five hitters to 5-for-22 with no RBI's and one run scored only to see the Mendoza line scrubs do all the damage.

Tomorrow Eli Morgan gets another shot although the announcers were saying the weather doesn't look good. With Lance Lynn going for the Sox a rainout would be to the Tribe's advantage.

Word is Mejia is getting the start now.

Karinchak might be getting a few days off if MLB reviews the video of him clearly using a substance in his glove last night.

Sounds like the White Sox weren’t pleased.

The White Sox were so upset that they got four hits and scored two runs off him.

That would be good. I was going off what ESPN has. Mejia so far...

5 IP, 1 H, 0 ER, 7 K's. I'm not looking for that line against the Sox today but I'll be interested to see what he can do against one of the better lineups in baseball.

He was grinding the ball into the palm of his glove, then flipping the ball over and grinding the other side in. Could be just a nervous habit or it could have a nefarious purpose. Probably both.

This is too obvious, guys.

This is too obvious, guys.

The question is if another team or MLB will actually call it out. He’s obviously been doing it all year (Jup pointed it out in like the first game) and no one has done anything about it. Since so many pitchers do it, it’s hard to complain about someone on another team.

You hit the nail on the head with your last comment… there are many, many other players on other teams doing the same exact thing. Some are more obvious than others. But this is a widespread thing.

MLB needs to draw the line and take a bunch of guys down, or just stick with the status quo. I'm guessing it will be the latter...we'll see.
