Eli Morgan has had his ups and downs in his rookie season with the Cleveland Indians, but is having a better August. So where does he fit into Cleveland’s 2022 pitching plans?

You can never have too much pitching.

You’ve heard that adage millions upon millions of times by now, but it remains as true as ever, especially in this injury-riddled 2021 season for the Cleveland Indians.

Even with Shane Bieber, Aaron Civale and Zach Plesac missing significant time, the starting rotation has not only been able to weather the storm, but the Indians have gotten extended looks at numerous young pitchers in their system, and have gotten some very positive returns in the process.
