Indians vs. Orioles

For the third time this week, the Indians have a chance to get back to .500 with a victory. That's quite an accomplishment, given where they were four weeks ago. Since then, they've gone 17-9, tied for the second-best record in MLB over that time. They're now closer to 1st place (5 games back) as they've been since April.

Carlos Carrasco will get the ball today. I don't like seeing Murphy in left field. He's hit well this season, but he's giving most of that value back with terrible defense. As far as I know, this is just a routine day off for Brantley, but with a scheduled day off tomorrow, I wonder if his back is bothering him.
