2017 Cleveland Indians

[bushwick_bill]

Better now than then.

Keep these 2 out for a month and then get them going.

Injuries are across the league, Twins lost their bopper, Cubs lost Lester, Dodgers are still without Kershaw, A-Gon, Turner was banged up too.

No woe is me here, we still got this. Danny and Andrew will be back. Brantley and Lonnie are close. Include Tomlin.

Boston with Price.

Need to shut them down until mid- September.

Joe Smith will prove more and more as a huge pick me up. He's going to buy Miller some time here, and Indians need to convince Miller rest up, Hammy mentioned Miller was chomping at the bit and rushed his process, because he's a competitor and Tito respects it. This time, Miller should give it a extra week or 2.

I'm sure the Indians will just cortisone it up if need be come October...

The injuries suck but Miller will be back and Salazar who knows...but this could be good having a well rested
Miller for the playoffs

Per Bastian:

Indians brought in Cavs medical staff to look at Miller's knee and help w/ rehab. They don't believe it's as bad as his earlier injury. Indians feel Cavs doctors will have better understanding of rehab needs for someone of Miller's height.

No timetable for Kipnis. MRI showed a hamstring strain and scar tissue might've built up.

Kipnis is having one season from hell.

Best possible scenario to be honest. I'm also thinking of going with A-Jax over Zimmer in the postseason. Zimmer seems to do rookie things too much, like shitting away ABs. A-Jax is definitely the hot hand.

Uh.... Do you not remember him at 3b? Bc I do. There is a raisin this team got much better defensively when he moved to RF. Keep a positive as a positive and leave Chis in the OF whenever he returns. Chernoff has 7 days to find a utility guy for 2b or 3b if he doesn't like the current options.

One, the team got better defensively because Lindor took over at SS. That's not to say the Indians haven't improved defensively because Chiz moved to the OF but Frankie is the biggest reason.

In his last 407.2 innings Chisenhall has a DRS of +7 so..... he's not terrible.

Two, Tito already said Chiz would get time at 3B.

Anyone have this that they would like to share?

Rajai on the Red Sox

Ah, yes.

It's funny that a guy feels hated by the fans of the team he still plays for and has pitched well for during his 5 seasons with them.

I hate so much about this fanbase...
