With baseball being the worst thing ever, we find Mike Clevinger on the shelf for about two months. It’s shocking, a huge bummer, a pretty big blow for a team that is still finding itself offensively and is counting on some unproven types in the bullpen. Any time you lose an ace level pitcher it stinks. Just look at the Indians — they’re down to just two Corey Klubers.
Even in the midst of this sadness around Clevinger, it’s neat that the Tribe has this metric to judge their pitching against, and to chart the amazing development surrounding their young guys.
