Four Players the Indians Need to Step Up in the Second Half of the Regular Season

The Indians enter the All-Star break at seven games over .500, sitting at 47-40, which is five games below where they were last year at this very point.

The team is still very much the odds on favorite to win the American League Central, and with the Tigers and White Sox both looking like sellers, it looks like the competition in the division will be the Twins and Royals.

Thus far in 2017 the Indians have gotten huge first halves from the likes of Jose Ramirez, Corey Kluber and Michael Brantley, but they also have plenty of question marks from a number of players considered key to the teams’ success.

Today we take a look at four such players, their outlook for the second half, and what we can expect from those players and if they will indeed have a big impact on the Indians drive to a second straight AL Central crown and hopeful defense of their American League title.
