Guardians News
The Guardians are gearing up for the second half of the season, sitting at 51-46 and just two games back in the division. With a +6 run differential over their last seven games, their pitching has been solid, showing a promising 3.3 runs allowed per game. As the trade deadline approaches, Cleveland's relatively easy schedule could play a significant role in their postseason push, particularly if they can secure Travis Bazzana at a favorable rate, following the recent long-term deal for Chase Burns. Meanwhile, the MLB's announcement of the 2027 schedule reveals a series against the Cubs that fans never really asked for, adding a layer of irony to the Guardians' future matchups. With the right moves, this team could capitalize on their momentum and make a real run this season.
