We knew that the month of April wouldn’t be easy. With some serious pieces still missing from the Cleveland Indians lineup, they have to rely on their pitching staff to keep games close and find ways to win those close games. We’ve two seen close wins, a close loss, and two blowout losses that the team couldn’t keep up in.
Without bats like Francisco Lindor, Jason Kipnis, and Carlos Gonzalez, the Indians can’t get into high-scoring slugfests. That will be the case against the Toronto Blue Jays.
Projected Lineups
Toronto Blue Jays (3-4): Billy McKinney RF, Randal Grichuk CF, Justin Smoak DH, Teoscar Hernandez LF, Rowdy Tellez 1B, Lourdes Gurriel Jr.
