We are deeply saddened by the passing of dear friend Sam McDowell. A strikeout king. His life a story of redemption;after extensive education/training, Sam was a counselor for athletes suffering from addiction and depression. Condolences to family/friends 🙏🏻

It is a sad fact that Cleveland sports teams always disappoint when they are favored to win in big games/series. They MUST be underdogs to win anything of note (1950 and 1964 Browns, 2016 Cavaliers). Sad but true.

If new ownership comes in after 2027, they can't be content just to make the playoffs. Cleveland's fans deserve more.

The Murakami homer was a blow, but the Guardians having success in October was never going to be about their starters. Parker Messick was good enough. Every single fan would tell you their biggest concern was this version of the offense showing up. At any point, this Cleveland offense is capable of laying an absolute egg no matter who is on the mound.

How can these guys proclaim that was a "great" send when the runner was out if Hedges holds the ball?

David Fry is hit .179 against lefties this season, .643 OPS. David Fry hit .246 against righties this season, .746 OPS 5 homers vs. Lefties 3 homers vs. righties. I don't know the reasoning behind playing Fry as a platoon against left handed pitching, especially if you're going to PH for him the second a righty comes in.
