2016 ALDS: Game Three | Indians @ Red Sox - Monday 6:08 p.m.

So how does everyone feel going against Toronto?

Is our pitching going to tie down their bats enough?

If it can work against Boston it should work against any other team, theoretically.

To be fair though the Red Sox bats were majorly slumping the final week of the regular season, and it continued throughout the ALDS.

Thats my concern. Im sure Toronto feels real good taking down the #1 seed, and scoring so easily on them. Would that continue against our pitching?

How so? Haven't watched a playoff game since 2013 and haven't watched a series win since 2007. I don't have an interest in watching unless the Indians are in it so yeah this is a little new.

What's word on Mickey Callaway? Will he be on short list for a manager job in near future?

If we win the WS I would assume he's gone to manage for sure.

Doubt it, honestly.

He's at his best focusing specifically on pitching instead of the tactical day-to-day of the manager role.

He should be in line for a raise though.

Indians currently with as many postseason sweeps as Lucroy had postseason hits.

I sure hope not. I'm of the opinion he's the most valuable person on the staff after Tito. We should do everything possible to keep him.

But he's a pitching guy through and through and I think that's the role he's most comfortable in and excels at.

So called expert Mike Oz had a day, take a bow!!

So glad I don't have to hear about Ortiz anymore. I love to think that Bill Simmons is sitting there somewhere just hating Cleveland even more and he can't do a god damn thing about it.

This. The Tribe just swept these Boston bitches and Sportscenter is STILL sucking off Ortiz. Even the crawler at the bottom of the screen mentioned how he doffed is cap or some other stupid shit. God, I hate the Sox--feels so good to sweep them.

HEY BOSTON!

Falkland beaches?

Seriously Yahoo Sports? You link this up today?

And then the best line is "While LeBron would come back a year later and finally relieve Cleveland of their torment, the Cavaliers’ singular championship since 1964 makes the rest of their failings all the more glaring."

Yes that's exactly what the Cavs championship did, make us all think more about our other failings. GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE.

Texas was overrated, we all knew that coming in. I think most people who had been following throughout the season gave Toronto a great chance to win that series. Not sure what Vegas had, but I certainly thought Toronto was the better team heading into that series with Texas.

People want to talk about Toronto's vaunted offense now. Well, guess who outscored them in the regular season? That would be the Cleveland Indians.

The Red Sox were the team most people were picking to come out of the AL, so if you want to talk about who's coming in with confidence, the Indians should have plenty.
