Salazar had thrived in his first five starts after returning from the disabled list July 22, allowing a total of five earned runs over 32 1/3 innings with a 46-to-9 K/BB ratio in that span.

Here's hoping Yandy is Dandy this time.

I prefer Clevinger as our 5th starter, but Mike can be really really bad as well as really really good. So I suppose there may be some small benefit by Tomlin's return.

Okaaay I think we found a spot for Tomlin after all civ

Wow, 3 of them! Just what we need to win the Series. Last year when both Carrasco and Salazar went on the DL, Paul Hoynes and I both wrote off the chances to go all the way. Missed by just one 1 inning. Now if we lost our No. 3 starter, No. 1 reliever and starting 1st baseman we have even more reason not to win, so I guess we will.

Wait I think I read it more closely the second time through. that's only 2 on the DL. Santana I guess is only going to be resting a few days, which means Yandy is just getting a few days back in the majors, before his 4th shot come September 1.

I guess you're right TFIR, it worked last year to have Josh as one of our 3 starters still standing. Doesn't make me comfortable, but so be it.

I would like to hurry Chisenhall back since we know Brantley's rehab will last well into September and perhaps beyond.

Tribe will start Merritt on Friday in place of injured Salazar. Josh Tomlin will make rehab start on Friday and then rejoin rotation.

Kipnis will get MRI on right hamstring Wednesday. Salazar MRI came back clean.

We have a 5 game lead in the division, and it's almost September. I'm in favor of giving the injured players rest unless we need them. I'd rather have Miller and Salazar healthy for the postseason.

I was at the Indians game last night, and saw the paver that the Tribe forum bought for Jim, and the plaque for Steve Olin and Tim Crews, which may have part of him in it!

I had totally forgot about that brick until I saw your Facebook post, J.R. Thanks.

Oh, I thought you checked it out the last time I met you at the ballpark?

No, I checked it out after it was done but had since forgotten about it. I wish I had checked it out. Maybe next time I'm in town.
