A lot hinges on how legit Jose Ramirez really is.

Bauer was largely unlucky and better than his ERA suggested. But I think Clevinger is probably worse than people think he is.

They’ll be good for no other reason than the AL Central is a joke - at least until we see if the White Sox farm bears fruit in the next 3 years.

You still have a LHH power problem. And Jay Bruce is gone so it’ll be interesting to see how you replace that.

Cleveland won’t win 22 in a row again.

I’ll say 94 wins off the strength that Detroit and Minnesota alone will give them 22-27 wins.

We had a good run last year, time will tell if that can be duplicated or even passed. Santana is gone (co-worker lived next door to him). I'm ready for the season. Give me my Cavs and Indians winning games and I'm good.

Now we just need Omar Vizquel and Kenny Lofton to get in.

We are looking mediocre, at best.

Below 500 now at 18-19...:why:

We'll get to the postseason simply because our entire division sucks ass.

We gotta turn this shyt around though, or I'm afraid that we'll slowly slide back to irrelevance. Especially with so many other teams in the AL doing so well: NY, Boston, Houston, LAA, hell even Seattle looking decent:ehh:

We gotta do better. Giving up way too many hits and shyt...

:snoop:

I can't even maintain attention until the playoffs. Idk if it's me or the sport

I can watch a few games during the regular season. It's damn near packed down here tonight but we taking a beating, early. Last game I came to about a month ago we crushed the Reds 19 - 2, that was a great game. Tonight we might bail early if this continues to get worse.

I'm in CT and used to stream every game (even in the Ricky Gutierrez days)with my friends account online and now it's just :snooze:

I'll check the standings and stats every week and that's about it

It's crazy that you can stream damn near any game on any pro-league sports association. I know for the Cavs I streamed damn near every game I wasn't watching at a bar.
