Guardians News
The Cleveland Guardians are on fire, riding a 6-1 wave over the last week and now sitting atop the division with a record of 81-75. As they prepare to face the Boston Red Sox, they should be thanking the MLB schedule makers for leaving town just before a brutal weather system slams Fenway. Parker Messick continues to shine as a rookie star, recently securing a tight 3-2 victory against Payton Tolle, further solidifying his place in this pivotal rotation. With the playoffs looming and just three games needed to clinch a spot, the Guardians are proving their doubters wrong. With a recent run differential of +16, the time is ripe for the Guardians to capitalize on their momentum and secure their postseason fate.
