PREVIEW: The Indians try and take second game against Seattle with Kluber on the mound

3. Bullpen Opportunities

Thursday afternoon the Indians placed bullpen specialist Andrew Miller on the 10-day disabled list. Just hours later, the bullpen gave up a late-inning game-winning double in a spot where Miller would’ve been used.

Between losing Bryan Shaw this offseason and now Miller going on the DL, the Indians are looking for guys to step up in what is becoming an unproven bullpen. The Matt Belisle experiment has not gone well, as right hander has an ERA of 7.36 in just seven innings of work, and Zach McAllister has struggled in his appearances as well, leaving the Tribe with opportunities for others to step up.

With the amount of quality starts the Indians are receiving and the struggling offense, this is a storyline to follow in the coming weeks as the roster continues to take shape. The good news for Terry Francona and company is that we are just 23 games into the season so there is plenty of time to figure things out.
