The Indians left Adam Plutko off their postseason roster, but do have Bradley Zimmer and Adam Cimber on it. That’s the transaction news of the day. In non-transaction news...
Astros 4, Twins 1
The bad news: The Astros won.
The good news: Sergio Romo blew the game (with some help from bad defense) and Michael Brantley was the one to break it open.
Houston only needed 2 pitchers in this one. After a surprisingly quick hook for greinke, Framber Valdez was great. He walked the first 2 batters he faced, so I didn’t think I’d be writing that sentence, but baseball is weird like that.
