Cleveland Walks Off To Save Corey Kluber's Gem
Corey Kluber threw a complete game tonight, allowing just three baserunners while striking out 11. He became the third pitcher in history to strike out eight batters or more in 13 consecutive starts. (Hello, Pedro Martinez and Randy Johnson and no one else ever.) And he very nearly lost. ...
The Browns Really Want You To Buy This Whole Brock Osweiler Thing
Please remember that the only reason Brock Osweiler is currently on the Browns’ roster is because the Texans were so desperate to be rid of him that they gave Cleveland a second-round pick for absorbing Osweiler’s $16 million salary this season.

Desperate Man Works Feverishly To Keep His Name In The Kyrie Irving Story
Stephen A. Smith first got his name into the Kyrie Irving trade story with a “report” that LeBron James would be “tempted, quote, to beat [Irving’s] ass, end quote.” You hear these stories from Smith, bleated with the cadence and volume of a string of firecrackers, and reflexively roll your eyes—he ...

The Royals Are Suddenly Unstoppable
Eric Hosmer was an invincible monster on Wednesday night. In a 16-2 drubbing of the failing Detroit Tigers, Hosmer provided five runs, five hits, and six RBI, most of which came from a demoralizing seventh-inning grand slam that stretched the lead out to 13-1. He even stole a base for only the fifth...

Just What In The Damn Hell Is Kyrie Irving Thinking?
Maybe we will come to learn that actually, LeBron James is Hannibal Lecter. Or Charles Manson. Maybe he sits his teammates in a solemn circle in the locker room and passes around a jug of his own hot piss for them to drink, as a test of their personal loyalty and devotion. Maybe he is Donald Trump. ...
LeBron James Denies Report That He Is "Tempted To Beat Kyrie's Ass"
LeBron James, who is always eager to use social media to swat away unwanted narratives, took aim at two SLAM Magazine tweets this morning. If we’re going to unbox this Russian nesting doll of tweets and aggregation, might as well start with the James tweets themselves. He’s boooooooing in both....

Cleveland's Offseason Is Turning Into A Real Nightmare
