Corey Kluber is making a change, and if you believe in magical sports voodoo, maybe this will be the thing to get back on track just in time for the playoffs.

I can’t find specifics of the bet he references with his wife, Amanda Kluber, outside of this brief mention from ESPN’s Marly Rivera:
Fun talk with Corey Kluber and his lovely wife Amanda about his beard. I asked about the length (complimented him on how well-groomed it is) and wondered whether there was a superstition about shaving it off.
