Four Reasons Why the Indians Should Be Postseason Favorites

3. The Bullpen

The Indians had issues early in the season with their bullpen. Andrew Miller missed significant time with an injury and the Tribe struggled to find consistency outside of Cody Allen. That is no longer a problem.

Miller’s return and the additions of Adam Cimber and Brad Hand at the trade deadline has stabilized their bullpen. Another reason to be optimistic about the bullpen is Shane Bieber.

The rookie starter will more than likely be tapped to move into the bullpen in the playoffs and serve as a long reliever.

The flexibility to have Hand, Allen or Miller close ball games is something no other team has and is a huge advantage for the Indians.
