CLEVELAND, Ohio Where have all the Indians’ relievers gone?
Closer Brad Hand, lefty Oliver Perez and sidearmer Adam Cimber departed after last season. Tyler Clippard, Nick Goody, Tyler Olson and Dan Otero left after the 2019 season. Franchise saves leader Cody Allen and 2016 ALCS MVP Andrew Miller left following 2018 season. As the Indians have cut payroll, there has been a talent drain in the bullpen.
Still, the performance of the pen, with the exception of a 4.60 ERA in 2018, has been steady. The Indians pen finished with the third best ERA in the AL in 2020 and 2019. They led the AL with a 2.89 ERA in 2017.
