The bullpen was lights out up until Miller walked off the field with a hamstring injury on April 25th. Ever since that time, this bullpen has been a major liability.
On April 23, the Indians’ bullpen ranked 4th in MLB with a 2.55 ERA. The Tribe’s relief corps has posted a 9.29 ERA in 14 games since, dropping to 28th in MLB (5.51 ERA) after today’s debacle.

It’s no coincidence that the bullpen’s effectiveness went down shortly after Miller went on the DL.
