3. Plenty of Runs to Work With
As the weather in June has heated up, so has the Indians bats, and Kluber has been the beneficiary of the teams’ run support.
How many times has Kluber had to work with one or two or sometimes no runs at all, frustrating fans to no end that the ace got very little run support.
That all has changed this month, as the Tribe has provided up with 30 runs in Kluber’s three wins (they scored three in the loss to the Twins).
How much of a change is this from earlier in the year? In April in got 24 runs of support in six starts (four runs a game), and this month in the wins they are putting up 10 runs a game.
Kluber has paid the team back with solid outings thus far in June other than that off night against the Twins, and the amount he’s been given to play with is more than enough to push him to 11 wins already in 2018.
