Opening day in Cleveland is supposed to be 40 degrees with a wind chill in the teens. You'd have to pay me 500 dollars to sit in that and watch a ballgame.
I am literally a fair weather fan.
I'm here to watch Snorenado suffer.
Opening night in Cleveland postponed due to butt cold temperatures.

Wonder when MLB is gonna figure this shit out... they've got 2 teams in Florida, one in Atlanta, two in Texas, 1 in AZ, 4 in CA, and some in domes elsewhere. (Toronto at least off the top of my head)
There should be no reason to open the season in places where it's ass cold like this other than tradition or stupidity, but here we are, the same place we are at the beginning of every season. DERP.
86 here in Texas :smug

It's impossible to overstate how truly wretched our offense has been this season, but this will pretty much drive it home:Jesus Christ dude......that's lower than Felix Fermin and I never saw him hit a ball in the air that actually cleared the edge of the infield.
Our team slg % is .285

I feel like he kind of got hosed a bit on this- realistically, he should have never been brought back this season.
However, I'm not going to miss him as his bullpen use and propensity to construct shitty line ups have cost us games, without question.
At this point, I'm fine with bringing up our position prospects as soon as the front office feels like it won't hurt their development.
BTW look at how skinny the players are before roids. Yikes.

Havings sat through Indians for years and years eventually somebody has to be the fall guy for shitty teams. It's rarely the GM.

~100% of Nats fans my age grew up as O's fans, and are thus morally suspect.

Sorry can't hear you. We too busy sweeping as usual.
Not a fan of the baseball. But holy fuck what a game.this
Another classic game 7 where the Indians lose. :/
Not mad though. They were underdogs in every series, yet still ALMOST went 11-2 in the post season (if they won that game 5 in Chicago). That's pretty crazy. The team didn't hit well for most of it and they had Josh Tomlin as their #2 starter.
This team was probably one of the least impressive "good" teams the Indians ever had. Even that 2007 team (which blew a 3-1 lead to the Red Sox in the ALCS) felt more impressive.
Normally I always try to minimize the role of management in baseball, but this year was one of those exceptions where management played a huge role in the overall success of the team.

Of course we have to be dicks here, but they definitely went further than they had any business going. Francona pulled every string correctly until Game 7, and that only didn't work out because Kluber and Miller finally ran out of gas (although I thought Miller should've started the 5th, but he gave up runs anyhow...). If they had their #2 and #3 starters, they probably win it all, even without Brantley.
Not only were the Cubs fucking stacked as hell this year, they barely had any injuries to deal with all year. And even Schwarber came back for the World Series.
