Could the Cleveland Indians call-up Nolan Jones or Gabriel Arias this year?
The 2021 season has really put the term “retooling season” to the test. The Cleveland Indians were overachieved at the beginning of the season, playing their schedule correctly and beating bad teams. They were 10 games over .500 with an outstanding bullpen and a surprise performance from May call-up Harold Ramirez gave a glimmer of hop.
Then the brakes came off. Injuries happened. Luck ran out. Now, the Indians find themselves in the midst of their longest losing streak since June of 2013.
