That’s what, the third straight series where we haven’t been swept?  #littlethings

Nice start for Gio.

Are you freakin' kidding me. We are only better than the 2006-2009 and 2015 teams? Deplorable . This is worse than I could have ever imagined. A nitemare I'm telling you.

Bubba - even though it's your way to lose hope about anything, try to remember the 2017 Indians before you leap off the 99th floor of your office building

Even tho Eaton, Rendon and Murph will be returning we still have an overworked BP and the back end is marginal at best. Kelley is done and Benoit is probably also. Glover is questionable and Weiters has shown me that he is NOT going to rebound. Zim and Taylor have regressed  to their 2016 performance levels. This is 2015 in my opinion.

You forgot about the nautical disaster that is Bryce Harper's regression.

Yes, I didn't mention that but commented in other threads starting several weeks ago by citing his lack of going all out both physically and mentally because he didn't want to jeopardize his health in a contract year. Some took exception but most are not.
