Cleveland Indians Sunday News and Notes: The offense continues to struggle

How do you fix a lineup that is struggling both on offense and defense?

Yesterday's Game

Trevor Bauer was a late scratch because of food poisoning, but that was really not the reason the Indians lost. Somehow a cobbled-together group of relievers allowed just four runs (it could have been much, much worse given how many base runners Cleveland pitchers allowed), but the offense couldn't do much of anything against Alfredo Simon. The opportunities they took advantage of on Friday they didn't take advantage of yesterday, and the effect was a rather ugly 3-run loss.
