4. Much Better D
The Indians were clumsy all night in game four, and committed four errors, one of which opened the door early for the Yanks to take a 2-0 lead and eventually drive Trevor Bauer out of the game.
Don’t expect to see the Tribe boot the ball around on Wednesday night, they should play a much more clean game, and hopefully their nerves don’t get the most of them as they play an all or nothing game.
They have to put the issues of games three and four behind them, and get their confidence level back to when they were winners in game one and even game two.
The team should have the advantage at home when it comes to a comfort level, and look for the defense to play much better.

Well, you could have been right on at least one of your “predictions”!!! I also read your free agent article. As much as I like Bruce, the team cannot afford to drop $60m on him. They already have several outfielders. If anything, they will spend some money on Santana. He will be cheaper than Bruce, has become a very good first baseman and WANTS to stay in Cleveland. To your credit, I think you are correct about Shaw.
