CHICAGO -- Danny Salazar has been saying it for a long time. He even said it again Sunday.
"I said it once in spring training, no, I said it a lot of times," said Salazar. "We have the best rotation (in baseball). I still believe that. We can do amazing things out there."
For the first five games of this six- game trip, Salazar was right. The Indians' starting rotation was 5-0 with a 1.53 ERA. All five starters - Corey Kluber, Carlos Carrasco, Josh Tomlin, Trevor Bauer and Salazar - earned a victory in that stretch
Sunday, however, the streak ended in a less-than-amazing start by Salazar.
