Somehow, almost in spite of themselves, the Indians are still in the race for the wild card. After losing two out of three to the Royals, the Tribe needs to come out swinging tonight against the White Sox. Literally swinging would be nice, since the offense has been pretty anemic over the past few games.
Corey Kluber takes on John Danks in game one of the four game set tonight. The Indians only faced Danks one other time this season – he got a no decision, but only allowed one earned run and two hits over six innings pitched. With the way the offense has looked lately, this makes me a little bit nervous. Hopefully the Indians are able to have some success against him.

Anybody else want to see Michael Bourn get like 2 nights in a row off. Put Brantley in center, Raburn in Left, and…I guess Stubbs in right?
let’s not shoot all our bullets tonight….save some runs for the rest of the series!
Great to see Josh Tomlin back…hope he can be a useful bullpen arm the rest of the way
Lots of hitting tonight. Go Tribe!
Tribe looked great last night against the Sox, but, this hitting into double plays, leaving multiple players on base has got to stop. The score could’ve easily ended up 17 or 18 to 3 if not for that. If odds are you’re going to hit into a double play, please, just let yourself be called out on strikes and leave one or more outs with which the decent hitters can work.
