I couldn't have been more wrong in my prediction for this series. Cleveland never bothered showing up.

Lindor made a brief appearance. The bullpen stayed home. Kluber, for some reason, cannot pitch in the postseason.

The Donaldson trade definitely hurt the Indians. He had nothing to offer at the plate at all.

Indians have lost 9 straight potential elimination games, the longest streak in MLB postseason history.

I think Oakland are right behind them.

in their now-completed ALDS, the Indians batted .144/.196/.222. over the history of all completed playoff series, that is the:

fourth-worst average
fifth-worst OBP
eighth-worst OPS

It wasn't even the worst OPS in a division series in 2018!
