CLE 4, TOR 2

I meeeeeean...before the bloodletting literally began, the drone story still wasn't that cute. Doesn't Bauer (not our Bauer, who aside from the neuroses that attend any Mets season-ticket holder seems properly socialized) (...hee) have a history of kind of not "getting it" re: being a big-leaguer? Maybe I'm remember that incorrectly, but I feel like he got dumped by the D-backs for maturity issues.

TBS should get dumped by MLB for nausea issues; we only need maybe one middle-distance shot to get the point. Bauer's uniform pants looked like a fucking Gallagher show. WE GOT IT, CAMERA FOUR.

Of course, those of us counting on Bauer to Hail-Mary us into the money really started to feel dizzy when we realized he became possibly the first BPP pick to leave the hill with negative pitcher points, because the gore compromised his control. What a world.

Speaking of points...this Jays lineup is becoming death from above the last few days. I don't tend to put a ton of stock in momentum but you have to wonder what happened to these hitters between Boston and now.

there but for the grace of Jon Lester: Elodie

Cleveland goes for the sweep today at 4 PM ET on TBS, and I'd like to take a moment to note that I get why the Cub "narrative" seems like a better ratings opp, but 1) TBS is a more visible network than FS1 anyway, and 2) underrating The Pride Of The Cuyahoga isn't working out rull well for anyone. Put 'em in primetime, they earned it.

...Not happening, so it's bears v. Blue at 8 on FS1. See you tonight!
