Notes:

 

MLB:

• No Important Notes Today.
  

 

Jays:

• McGowan allowed 10 runs in 6.2 innings in his first two home starts before yielding two runs in five innings without a decision in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Angels at Rogers Centre.
  
• Francisco is 3 for 4 with four RBIs in the last two games, and 4 for 9 against the Indians this season. Lind is 4 for 9 in the last three games after he went 1 for 9 with a home run in his first three contests since coming off the disabled list.
  
• Jose Reyes tripled during the fourth inning of his club's 5-4 victory over the Indians on Tuesday night. It was his first triple in a Blue Jays uniform and his first since Oct. 2, 2012. He has reached base in 11 consecutive games and 11 of his 20 hits this season have gone for extra bases.
  

 

Indians:

• Kluber gave up five runs and nine hits in 6.2 innings of a 5-0 home defeat to Toronto on April 19, but he's 2-1 with a 1.91 ERA and 38 strikeouts in four starts since. He yielded three runs over the last two outings, including two with nine strikeouts in 6.2 innings of a 6-3 victory at Tampa Bay on Friday.
  
• Mike Aviles has filled in nicely for Cleveland since All-Star second baseman Jason Kipnis landed on the disabled list with a strained left oblique. Entering Wednesday, Aviles was hitting .417 (15/36) with four extra-base hits, five RBIs and six runs through 10 games in Kipnis' absence.

Which Dusty do we get today?????

[The_DH]

He's got to be feeling better, more confidant with the results he's had with the drip.

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

Good Dusty! better question is which bats show up tonight?

[Dylan]

Happy to watch baseball again

[Orgfiller]

Happy to watch baseball again

 

How was your trip?

[Dylan]

How was your trip?

 

Excellent, better than expected.

 

My Canadian skin took a beating though.

[John_Havok]

Frigging Jamie Campbell... Pre game he says "they've used three option on Jenkins this year..."

 

Um no they haven't. Just 1 option is used and he can be bussed back and forth to Buffalo as many times as they want in the year and use nothing but 1 option.

[dineke]

Nah it would be sad if he did know.

[The_DH]

AA didn't know either.

[Angrioter]

Vamos McGowan!!!

[Bunchedundies]

It's time for mcgowan to go deeper in a game.

[Dylan]

K!!

[Bunchedundies]

Nice pitch, changeup.

[Dylan]

It's time for mcgowan to go deeper in a game.

 

Would be nice for him to give us 7 innings, doubt it though.

 

7 pitches, 2 outs

[Deadpool]

Would have liked fewer than 6 pitches for that AB, but really nice finishing pitch.

he's a ginger.... dont expect him to know anything

[Bunchedundies]

Good start.

[kgm1]

Now that is what i want to see from Dusty for 6 plus innings

[Daniel Labude]

If rasmus was in cf thats a triple

[kgm1]

Would be nice to have a laugher today to give the BP a rest

[kgm1]

Going to be a wide strike Zone ???

[Bunchedundies]

Damn babip luck.

[kgm1]

Two hard hit balls

[bowld]

steam?

[Bunchedundies]

Damn bautista missed a meatball on that second pitch.

[Atothe]

Kluber got lucky but his stuff is nasty

[Daniel Labude]

Other than Bautista we hit the ball hard....keep that up and we can score some runs tonight.

[Atothe]

The stuff of Mcgowan looks very good right now

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Beauty 2 seamer there.
