We’re likely to get one more start from Corey Kluber this year, on the second to last day of the year against the Royals. It would keep him on his regular schedule, and allow for full rest in an expected Game 1 start against the Astros. The Indians need him at full strength and not rusty, so this works perfectly. Kluber isn’t having his best year, merely fourth in the AL in starter ERA and fifth in WAR. He won’t win the Cy Young like he did a year ago, but maybe - absurdly, possibly stupidly - that’s a good thing.
Corey Kluber seeks success in moderation
