Indians need starting pitching badly. It's a miracle they are only 1.5 behind the Tigers and leading the wildcard chase with only 2 and a half starting pitchers so far this year. Everyone says they are going after bullpen and outfield help. They need a starting pitcher much worse. Lee and Westbrook still sporting plus 6 ERAs with no signs of getting any better. If they can't get anyone or if Miller or Laffey from the minors don't step in the rest of the year, they will not make postseason. They simply can't stay where they are trotting out Lee and Westbrook every 5th day and survive. I blamed their injurires for struggles for much of the season...but they have been back long enough that you have to say they are just stenchful period.
