Our thoughts our with the families impacted by Harvey and our prayers are for those who have been or likely will be impacted by Irma.

As far as baseball goes:

1. 15 in a row is just amazing.  What is really hard, though, is that I believe it can happen again at some point this year or next year.

2. Both Michael Brantley and Jason Kipnis, though not able to play, made their way to Chicago to participate in the Indians' football fantasy draft.   Does that sound strange to anyone else?

3. Does it strike anyone as funny that Adam Plutko, who hasn't played in Class A ball in about 4 years, is able to be placed on the Lynchburg roster for their playoff series?   Didn't help tonight is he poured on the gasoline in the 9th inning 5-run rally that led to a crippling 10-9 loss in game 1 of the playoffs after the Hillcats led 4-1 and 9-5. 

4. 15 in a row, mostly without Salazar, Brantley, Chisenhall, Miller and Kipnis....who would have thunk it?

5. If we can get by the Orioles in the next 3, with our depth, is it possible that we could run the table the rest of the season?  That is crazy talk, I know, but man are things breaking right for us right now!
