The Indians are sliding badly. They did just win against Seattle, but they still lost 4 in a row during that period. Seattle is a team the Indians should be able to win a series against, or at least tie. A tie would be a disappointment and the Indians need to gain some ground. The Indians are 5 games out now and only a half game away from being in 3rd place. This is a prime time for the Indians to gain some ground. Detroit is playing in Tampa and travels to the rival Twins. Even though the Twins aren't great, its still on the road while the Indians get 3 bad teams in a row in a homestand.

The Daily Take: Indians 3-4 on road trip, Hall of Fame Speeches
The Bad News: The Indians went 3-4 on their recent road trip and lowered their record to .500
The Good News: The Indians took 3 out of 7 against 2 division leaders on the road
Its all about perspective. While the Indians had a bad road trip, they had a good one at the same time. It was ugly and heartbreaking for fans, but 3-4 is not a bad result considering they played the Rangers and the Red Sox. It hurts a lot more because the Indians were in all the games and the starting pitching and defense was enough to win each game. Unfortunately, games are 9 innings.
