Zach McAllister is one of the few Indians starting pitchers that has a winning record.True McAllister only has four wins and two losses on the season, he is one of the Indians only hopes. The Cleveland Indians are looking for Zach McAllister to stop the Indians plunge, Cleveland has dropped their last four games to teams they should have beaten. The Cleveland Indians are presently six games back in the AL central. If the Tribe can’t get a win tonight the season might just come to a screeching halt, as far as post season play goes. At this point in the season the Indians made no moves to improve this team.
The trade deadline came and went and all the Indians general manager did, was to make more excuses. The fans in Cleveland are tired of excuses year after year, they saw the same thing take place last season. At least last season the Indians went out and tried to get a pitcher they thought could help the Indians win, even though the Ubaldo Jimenez trade didn’t pan out the way the fr...

Derek Lowe has pitched himself out of the Indians’ rotation and off the team. Following Wednesday night’s loss to the Royals, the Indians designated Lowe for assignment. Being called up to join the rotation is Corey Kluber.
Lowe started the season strong, but has had a brutal two months. Tuesday’s poor outing was apparently the last straw-

Indians face KC, but will Choo be there?
Shin-Soo Choo has been the Cleveland Indians' top hitter this season, and he's had plenty of success on the road against the Kansas City Royals throughout his career.
Whether he'll be in Cleveland's lineup when its three-game series begins Tuesday night at Kauffman Stadium remains to be seen.

Yes, the Indians brought in another guy after sending Derek Lowe on his way.

As a Braves fan, this amuses me way more than it should. The Indians have designated starting pitcher Derek Lowe for assignment. Lowe was acquired by the Indians from the Braves this past offseason in essentially a salary dump, with Atlanta picking up $10 million of Lowe's $15 million salary in 2012, the final year of a four year pact he signed with the Braves prior to the...

Dear Chris Perez,
I hope this is all starting to make some more sense. The trials and tribulations of a fan base scorned, essentially lied to and perpetually left holding the bag of disappointment, have all bubbled up to the surface in a Vesuvian fashion.
Despite your outwardly vocal and oftentimes unsolicited opinions, there’s a reason why many Cleveland fans wanted you to stay...

We were nearing the end of Red Sox Final on Wednesday night when an interesting tidbit came across The Edge, NESN's ubiquitous bottom-of-the-screen ticker: "Cleveland Indians designate Derek Lowe for assignment." Hmmm... Lowe, now 39 years old, has struggled mightily for the Indians of late. He's 0-3 with a 15.88 ERA in his last three starts after getting pounded...

Many Red Sox fans' minds probably began to wander upon hearing that Derek Lowe had been designated for assignment by the Indians. While it's unclear if Boston is interested in bringing back the 39-year-old, who played with the club from 1997-2004, Lowe certainly seems open to the idea. According to The Boston Globe's Nick Cafardo, Lowe said he just needs a "tune...

Rumors are swirling as I write that it is quite possible that Derek Lowe, designated for assignment today by the Cleveland Indians, could very well be wearing the Sox uniform again.
Lowe 39, started the season 6-1 with a 3.09 ERA in his first 11 starts but has struggled since the All-Star break, going 0-3 with an ERA of 15.88, hefty numbers for a man making $15 million this year...
