Awesome!

I really hope injuries don’t derail the G tribe this year. I’m looking forward to watching all these young talented players grow with the vets.

Looking forward to when they call up Arias. The pitching in the farm system is crazy good.

Yea, we almost have too many prospects lol.

I thought Arias was called up to play the doubleheader?

Edit: I don’t know if it was just for that reason or us having a couple players inactive

You're correct that Arias was called up for the DH. It was understood he'd be sent back down after the game(s). It's only a matter of time before he's up here permanently. He's the SS of the future.

Ah ok. I’ve missed the past few games because of meetings. Ugh.

Yes, definitely aware of Arian’s potential.

JRam will be in the conversation for AL MVP this season. But he won’t win it because of Ohtani or Trout and that sucks. He could put up a .320 avg, 40 hr’s, 145 rbi’s, 50 doubles, and 30 sb’s and still won’t win it, and that sucks, but it is the reality for a Cleveland baseball player.

Don’t remember the actual stats but Albert Belle was far and away the best player in the AL in like ‘96 or ‘97 and he didn’t win it.

When Arias comes up for good, who goes? Rosario/Gimenez, one has to go, Arias has to play everyday, and so do they. Just to get him up do we DFA Chang or Bradley?

Belle led the league in HR, RBI, Slugging % and Runs scored.

He was mean to the media in general, and Hannah Storm in particular. And they made him pay.

Come on Frenchy, if he posts that, he wins. If not, what kind of numbers might the others post?

Albert is a different deal. He had some negatives in the minds of many.


If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

Ohtani will win it again because of his pitching stats combined with the batting stats.

Espino had a similar game in his last start or the one before that. He's striking out batters at a crazy rate.

That's 2.33 K's per inning.

I would have never guessed that would be possible in a video game.

The kid clearly dominates A ball players. Looks like a call up to AA is around the corner.

My bad. I thought I saw A but turns out it was the shortstop hitting a long homer.. That being the case, it isn't out of the realm to just jump from AA to the Bigs. A lot of teams keep their prime pitching prospects in AA so they can work on a few things and still remain confident in doing so until they are comfortable throwing a new pitch..

Also, that being the case, he probably won't move anywhere but AAA soon. A jump to the parent team might no come until the 2nd half of the season.

Jose Ramirez wins player of the month for April in the AL

Steven Kwan wins rookie of the month for April in the AL

Not where we want to be yet, but a good start for those two players.

Wow.


Josh Naylor first player with 8 RBIs in eighth inning or later, helps Cleveland Guardians stun Chicago White Sox

1:30 AM ET
ESPN News Services

CHICAGO -- Josh Naylor hit a tying grand slam with two outs in the ninth inning and a three-run homer in the 11th, powering a huge comeback that carried the Cleveland Guardians past the Chicago White Sox 12-9 on Monday night.

Naylor also had a run-scoring double in the eighth and finished with eight RBIs for the Guardians, who stunned Chicago by rallying from an 8-2 deficit in the ninth aided by two White Sox errors.

According to ESPN Stats & Information research, Naylor became the first player since the stat became official in 1920 to have eight RBIs from the eighth inning on in a game. He also became the first player in major league history with multiple three-run home runs (or a grand slam) from the ninth inning on in a game.

"Nothing surprises me what he can do with the bat," teammate Franmil Reyes said. "That was amazing. A legendary moment."

Andrés Giménez led off the ninth inning with a homer and then doubled home a run in the 10th as the Guardians snapped Chicago's six-game winning streak. They have won eight of 10 following a seven-game skid.

It was the first multihomer game for Naylor, back from a horrific leg injury last season. He is 10-for-17 with runners in scoring position this year.

Naylor launched his first career slam off Liam Hendriks, handing the All-Star closer his first blown save since April 8.

Naylor's go-ahead drive came off Ryan Burr and barely cleared the right-field fence. Burr (0-1) started the 11th in place of Reynaldo Lopez, who felt lower back tightness while warming up and left the game.

"It stings," Hendriks said. "It should have been something I should have taken care of. We were one strike away and I couldn't get it done. That's what stings the most."

Burr was equally remorseful.

"It sucks," he said. "Some days you're the windshield, some days you're the bug. I was the bug today. I got squashed. It sucks to let this team down."

Emmanuel Clase (1-2) allowed a run in the 10th but earned the win. Trevor Stephan pitched a perfect 11th for his second major league save and first this season.

White Sox starter Michael Kopech allowed two hits through six innings, and Chicago got three-run homers from Gavin Sheets and AJ Pollock to build a big lead. But four errors, which tied a season high set April 20 in the first game of a doubleheader, haunted the White Sox.

Sheets dropped a line drive to right field with two outs in the first that allowed the Guardians' first run to score. Chicago shortstop Tim Anderson and third baseman Yoan Moncada committed costly errors in the ninth.

The White Sox loaded the bases on three walks in the bottom of the ninth, but third baseman Jose Ramirez made a diving stop and Naylor stretched far at first base to field the throw for the final out of the inning.

Kopech lowered his ERA to 0.93, and his six innings tied a career high set Aug. 26, 2018, at Detroit.

The game marked the return of Moncada and the White Sox debut of reliever Joe Kelly. Moncada hadn't played this season because of a right oblique strain. Kelly, who was out due to a right biceps nerve injury, pitched a scoreless seventh.

Information from ESPN's Jesse Rogers and The Associated Press was used in this report.
