Wahoo Wrap-Up (Week 4)

Record: 10-14, 3rd in AL Central

Maybe I should stop doing these posts on Sunday considering it seems the Tribe loses on this day each time. Then again, it's not like they're winning a lot on the other days either. The road trip finished on a bitter note as the Angels hit a walk-off bunt (yes, you read that right) to beat us in a game we should have won. We then only managed to get 1 out of 3 against the Twins to begin this homestand. The good news is that our offense seemed to perk up once we got back to Cleveland. Unfortunately the starting pitching wasn't as strong. Not to mention that the Twins are just a better team than us right now.

This week the homestand continues as we take on Toronto and Detroit. Toronto has strong together a couple of wins thanks to playing an injured Oakland team, but they are not what I would consider a formidable opponent. I would really like to see us take at least two of three from then. Then it's our old rivals, the Tigers. They have been red hot lately and played well against us at Comerica Park. If we want to have any chance of making a move in the AL Central, we're going to have to start defeating divisional opponents. Let's hope that begins this weekend. I'll be back with another recap next Sunday. Until then, let's go Tribe!
