Now Lindor lines a double.
This kid is amazing. After missing all that time he is now .306 with .378 OBP and .528 slugging. 10 homers.
Just imagine if he had actually had a spring training and month of April. Incredible...I am in awe.

He’s fantastic. For me Watching Lindor walk via free agency, or traded, is going to hurt more than anybody since Manny. I almost wish they would just pay him and surround him with young cheap guys. I hate losing these generational type players.

I know what you mean. Going to be very painful.

For us old geezers who remember baseball before Free Agency.
Good for players...bad for fans.

Carrasco was the scheduled starter tonight. With him out and on I.L. the Tribe sent Greg Allen down, and brought up relievers Edwards and Goody. They are going to start Clippard tonight and just go with bullpen arms.
Rodriguez was just placed on I.L. and expected not to throw for a couple weeks then be evaluated.
Clevinger threw bullpen yesterday and is starting for Columbus tomorrow. He should be back soon. He wants to just have one rehab start, Francona says two. We'll see who wins.
Zimmer "felt something" in his shoulder while playing extended spring training games in Arizona, and has been shut down again.

Rain delay tonight, but game is back underway.
Wittgren gives up a run in top of 7th so Twins open up a 7-5 lead.

So in bottom of 7th Jordan Luplow cranks out a 2 run shot, against a righty BTW, to tie it up. 7-7
I had to leave for work but turned the game on here on my app just in time to see Lindor hit a long homer to put Tribe up 9-7 in bottom of 8th.
I missed a run in there.
Tribe still hitting with Hand warming up for 9th

Ha, Manning and Underwood just gave a quick run down and the run I missed was another Roberto home run. I didn’t ignore that on purpose!

So Tribe is now 1 game over 500 again. And what, 9.5 games back? I’ll check my math later, but right now I’d better get some work done.

Thanks for the coverage HB.
The rain pushed it past my beddy time.
Pretty inspired play these first 2 games to push back at the Twins.

Yes, had to love the fight of the team. They fell behind, crawled back into it, just to fall behind by 2 again. Could have packed it in but they are really fighting. Lindor is seemingly willing them to win too.

I believe Frankie has to put this team on his shoulders and carry them.

He might be able to with Ramirez's help. But too heavy without Jose. Carrying around scrubs like Kipnis, Leonys could give him a hernia.
His only real help has been Santana.
