Cleveland Indians 2016

Francona certainly went "all in" in the 4th inning last night, pulling his starter and going with Miller for so long. That only works if Kluber goes 7 or 8 innings tonight. I'd certainly think Miller and Allen are either not available today, or for one batter only.

Getting a win with Bauer, no matter how it was done, and coming back with Kluber the next day, appears like a master stroke to me.

We are the underdog in this series. We'd be the underdog EVEN IF we had Salazar and Carrasco if you believe all of the sabermetricians. So, getting a win in game 1 against a 20 game winner is HUGE.

Hopefully, you get 7-8 innings from Kluber today and then "all in" again with Tomlin on Sunday.
 
And Pedroia's rant at the end of the game...

That clearly reeked of "we're the Red Sox; you can't call me out on that!" when he clearly went "over the line" on the checked swing.
 
Boston Herald article hints that maybe the Indians were stealing Porcello's sings...no evidence offered, however.
 
Announcers during the game also said something about the Boston stealing signs from Perez. It's most likely a load of crap.
 
Indians just beat up on the Red Sox. Just goes to show you that in baseball, the hot team wins. Tribe got big contributions from the bottom of their batting order. Sox got very little from their main guys.
