The Cleveland Indians minuscule margin of error keeps being shredded away. Emmanuel Clase, the gem of the Corey Kluber salary dump, is expected to miss 8-12 weeks with an upper back strain.

I’ll save you the math: That’s three months at worst, and at best estimations he could be back doing baseball things around May.

Per Mandy Bell, this is the same injury that kept Mike Clevinger out for the better part of two months last season.

I actually hate baseball.
