Indians Jose Ramirez and Francisco Lindor Each Take Home Silver Slugger Awards for Second Straight Season

The Indians twosome of Francisco Lindor and Jose Ramirez were each awarded Silver Slugger awards on Thursday night, one of three teams to have multiple winners (Boston, Colorado and Arizona also had more than one player win a slugger award).

Lindor had a huge 2018, as he collected career-highs in almost every offensive category and earned his third straight American League All-Star bid, batting .277 (183-for-661) with 42 doubles, 2 triples, 38 home runs and 92 RBI in 158 games.

He also finished tied for the Major League lead in runs (129) and swiped 25 bases, becoming the first shortstop in MLB history and first Indian with at least 35 home runs, 40 doubles and 20 stolen bases in a single season.
