Yeah he looks out-of-sorts up there, much like he did during his horrendous stretch earlier this year. The good news is that he crawled his way out of that slump once this year. Hope he does it again.
Indians fan pages & message boards are full of this type of chatter as well. Downright calling the Twins cheaters, juicers, etc. Lots of talk about Kepler, for example, due to his big jump in numbers. Insinuating it's an organization-wide scheme.
Huge win. Huge sigh of relief. Polanco's game has been great lately. Nice way to cobble together a bunch of zeros with all the pitchers. Give credit where it's due: Rocco did a nice job managing this bullpen game. Would be a heckuva deal if the Twins swept the DH today. Why not?
Okay, well the offense isn't going to help - it's all on Taylor Rogers. I suppose we all have to be good with that. Sure wish the lead was more than 2. Stealing this game would be awesome!
Man, Sano just hasn't been looking good - before he was shelved, and now after, he's been a strikeout machine. What clicked for him when he was hot? That ground rule double was terrible luck.
