Indians can coast into playoffs despite a plethora of injuries

The Indians’ injury/ineffectiveness list is getting a little bit ridiculous at this point. The entirety of Wednesday was a summation of the struggles we’ve watched the Tribe deal with all season. Even an incomplete list is simply wild:

  • Outfield in utter disarray, with both the starter and the number one backup center fielder on the DL, and right field just… strange
  • Jason Kipnis still not able to hit his way out of a paper bag (maybe it’s changing?)
  • Catcher as a black hole of offense
  • Nobody even talks about Danny Salazar anymore

There’s probably some more stuff I’m missing, but it’s been a blur of misfortune for the Indians this season.
