The home stretch of the 2018 season is upon us. Three of MLB’s six divisions are still (realistically) up for grabs in the middle of September, and the teams involved in those races will have to claw their way to the finish line before October rolls around.
The American League Central is not among those undecided races, and as such the Cleveland Indians will instead use these final few weeks to set their roster up ideally for the first round of the playoffs.
Cleveland has already begun tinkering with the starting rotation, backing Corey Kluber up a few days in order to have him in line to start the first game of the ALDS.
