EloyJenkins Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Seriously, Astros are washed and don't have cole or verlander to save them this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 One last turn around the rotation starts tonight. For as bad as the first turn was in late July, we need some quality starts to end it. A nice 4-1 win tonight. Madrigal with the big hit. Let’s go!

brijames1957 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 You have to beat the best to be the best. They are going to face Bieber tonight, Darvish this weekend. Winning the Division is still in their complete control but they certainly are going to have to go out and earn it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 A win tonight and Twins loss would be HUGE and make me a very happy camper. Could leave Cleveland with a 4.5 game lead over the Tribe and 2 games over the Twins. Its possible, but a lot to ask for sure. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hi8is Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 My unread text messages now are set to a notification level of 88. Thus, it means Robert is breaking out tonight in an unlikely fashion. Exactly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just needs to get his confidence back, playing near everyday maximizes the opportunities. I have confidence in the team tonight, Bieber is most excellent, but if the team works the counts and remains patient they can get to him and their bullpen.

Southwest Sider Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 While I generally agree with Abreu's comments, my worry is that team-wide slumps usually last longer than 5 games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We werent good against the Twins and we got lucky that they were even worse. I would say our team slump is at 9 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofaRoache Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I appreciate Abreu being a leader, and vocally, but I'm not buying it. These guys haven't relaxed after clinching as we see many of the same good things and bad things. Maybe that was the case the first Cincy game. The reasons I think they are struggling in order. 1. Facing good teams with elite pitching. 2. Not hitting enough with runners on base, not squaring up bad pitches. 3. Walking too many batters. 4. Poor lineup construction and bullpen usage.
