I don't know how anybody will have confidence in this team come postseason when the game is tied in the 6th-7th.
This was an exhibition game. Just the fact that Otero even appeared should clue us in to that.
The Red Sox clinched and partied last night then mostly started their AAA lineup.
The Indians started Bauer on a 35 toss pitch count, clearly let Bieber eat innings just to eat them, and didn’t even consider bringing in Allen, Miller, Hand, or Perez at any point in the game. In the playoffs, Tito would not hesitate to bring any of those 4 in during the 6th or 7th if the situation called for it.
Trying to extrapolate any postseason meaning from tonights exhibition is pretty pointless.
