Heard the Indians pitching has been so dominant that there have been multiple times where certain outfielders go the entire game without touching the ball.
Clase has pitched twice now....
Can confirm.
They have had to practice after games on a few occasions because guys need more reps, especially with them moving their MI crop all over the diamond.
And it isn't being done in the style of Bieber, Plesac, and Civale. Every day its a different power arm that's lighting up the gun. Different kind of animal in their pitching at the lower levels right now. They can run out Hankins, Vargas, Oviedo, Torres, Burns, Gaddis, Morillo and all of them will pump 95-100. And they don't even have Espino pitching vs other teams and he might be the best power arm of the lot.
Also, Cantillo has a chance to be the best piece of the Clevinger trade. His 2019 season wasn't a blip. Legit 93-95 with his FB, plus-plus wipeout change. He's able to add a little velocity and tighten up his breaking ball, which this organization does better than anyone else with pitching prospects, and I think he ends up the best piece.
