American League Championship Series | Game 2: Toronto (Happ) @ Cleveland (Tomlin) | Saturday October 15 | 4:00PM

[Schad]

Cleveland held Boston, the best offense in the baseball this season, to seven runs in three games. They're very, very good at grinding out low-scoring games, and the travel days during the series means that they can be more aggressive with their bullpen than in the regular season.

Doesn't mean the series is over, though; Bauer struggled in September, and the Sox chased him early. Their likely Game 4 starter is a rookie with control issues who doesn't exactly go deep into games. Winning four of five isn't easy, but neither is it implausible...we have a dozen discrete instances where we went 4-1 over a five-game stretch in this season alone.

Also, the 2 pitchers the Indians threw in games 1-2 were both red hot the past few weeks. The Rangers threw 3 SP's against that all struggled in September. Obviously those trends continued. Need Bauer and Stroman to follow the trend

Series isn't over, definitely. Will be tough, but the bats need to wake up. They've been too reliant on waiting for pitchers to make really obvious mistakes and have been rather awful at hitting legitimately good pitching, even during the season. Against pitchers that make more subtle mistakes and less of them, like Cleveland, the bats basically shut down. If they want to win this series, they're going to need to score 3+ runs each game from here on out - maybe they can grind out a game 2-1, but not more than one or maybe 2 of those - and I think that's a pretty tall order.

[Boogie!]

this team looks like the worst baseball team in the league right now... we cant generate any offense so miserable.

I'm on the verge of throwing things around and going crazy like a nut job on 48 hour mystery. I would really like some advice to stop me from losing my mind over a baseball game.

Met Marcus Stroman earlier today surprisingly he wasn't as friendly as I imagined with his whole twitter persona but he's
probably miserable like every Jays fan today lol

I've always heard one on one Stromans a dick. Not surprised in the least.

Unfortunately it's true and I've met quite a few Jays and Raps over the years
