You’re not going with a 5th starter in a 7 game series

You never know with the lack of days off between division series and league series. Might not have a choice. You can’t stretch out guys like you in years past. You just might be forced to use your 5th starter in these playoffs.

You realize this season was about 1/3 of a regular season too?

Just because they played 1/3 of the season doesn’t mean they can make multiple 3 days rest starts. We did that Kluber and basically ruined him. 
 

you might blow out the pitching start in the division league series if you try and pitch only your top3. Only way it works out is if the Indians win the series quick. I don’t see that happening. 
 

also opposing teams will have the same issues 

heck look at ‘16. Kluber made 6 starts in the postseason and he was done by that 6th start. Kluber did that by also having travel days to help give rest. Won’t have that. 
 

By chance the Indians make it to the World Series. Most likely will get Bieber pitching game 1 and 5 and won’t be able to pitch him for a potential game 7. Also in the league series we might not even get Bieber to pitch in game 1

Truly need Tito to be back for the playoffs so he can manage the pitching staff and how they will be used. This is going to be an interesting playoffs because of the lack days off and rest.

Reread what you just posted. Your argument doesn’t make any sense.
 

There’s no scenario in which Bieber would pitch in a game 7 according to you.

 

In a 7 game series, you’re trying to win every single game. You don’t just “forfeit a game” for the long term. That’s how you lose a series. Every game is as important as a game 7.

I’m just saying we can’t pitch Bieber 3x in a series. So that means the likes of Tristan or Civale might have to pitch in the league series or the World Series

White Sox are getting smoked by the Cubs.

 

If the Indians win, they’re looking at playing at Progressive in the first round.

Although we have not been much different on the road than at home, the Yankees have been awful on the road.

So we got that going for us.

Glad to see some of you coming around to what I’ve been saying about Frankie. Dude succumbs to pressure. 
 

Im fairly convinced he doesn’t want to be here anyway. We should have traded him last year when he had the peak value. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Coming around?

Dude I have been leading the band!
