Tribe’s pitcher Brad Hand has not pitched in a game since September 8th as he was dealing with a tired left arm. Fortunately, the Indians have incredible depth in their pitching roster.
The question is will the Tribe’s skipper be bold enough to entrust someone other than Hand for the remaining games? The immediate answer would be “yes” as Terry Francona is a mastermind at manipulating the roster to fill in for injuries that have plagued the team all season.
In the opening game of the series against Philadelphia, Carlos Carrasco recorded his first save in five years.
