That Indians line up doesn't seem like it should be good at all.

 

Lindor and Kipnis are both really good consistent hitters who do pretty much everything well. Santana and Napoli are their power bats. Jose Ramirez basically came out of nowhere this season. They don't look great on paper, but they produce on the field.

The Indians have six OPS+ guys in Napoli, Kipnis, Lindor, Santana, Jose Ramirez and Naquin.

Seven if you count Brandon Guyer.

 

Four of those guys totaled 57, 60, 78 and 99 walks (Santana).

 

They also were extremely proficient at stealing bases.

 

Only when you compare to the Blue Jays hitting all those homers (six with 20+)...with that similar offense to the 2000 and 2006 first half White Sox do they come up short.

The Indians are the AL version of the Giants, right? Except with a much better bullpen.

Actually they remind me of the 2014/2015 Royals. Solid starting pitching, very good defense, timely hitting, and most importantly excellent bullpen. With the mid season acquisition of Miller, good luck trying to come back if they have a lead late in the game. Most important acquisition in baseball at this year's deadline. And yes, he's better than Chapman.
