I Blame Stephen Strasburg

There was a time this season when the Tribe was actually (gasp!) 3-2 in interleague play. On the morning of the final game of the Washington series the Indians actually had a three-game winning streak against the NL.

Then came the Stephen Strasburg game, his second major league start. Loss, Indians. And since then?

↵

Ten more losses in eleven games. One win in Pittsburgh, and two sweeps so far, with the chance of a third sweep coming later today.

It must be Strasburg's fault, he bewitched us. It couldn’t be that we are that bad.

Could it?
