Good place to be. 2.1 R/G this week. The bats need to wake up. Making it worse, getting outscored by 8 is dragging the score south.

Guardians News

Cleveland's baseball landscape is buzzing with excitement as the Guardians stand at 32-25, despite a recent 3-6 loss to the Nationals, where their offense was sluggish again, averaging just 2.1 runs per game over the past week. The bright spots include rookies like Chase DeLauter and Travis Bazzana, who are proving they belong, while pitching prospect Daniel Espino edges closer to joining the big leagues, highlighting the organization's knack for developing talent. Off the field, the acquisition of Travis Kelce as part of the ownership group adds a new layer of local pride to the franchise, mixing sports culture with a renewed commitment to winning. With Angel Martínez and others showing promise, the Guardians need to regain offensive firepower quickly to maintain their spot at the top of the division.
