They might be better than we give them credit for.

No kidding, their top 5 in the order are so damn good

Massey is a fun player.

Pollock what the heck to you think is coming 0-2 . Hmm slider out of the zone by a foot ? Check. Swing and miss? Check !

Keep going the other way boys

The Guardians are such a well run team and so good at player dev, they're never going to bottom out. The surprise to me is that neither the Sox or Twins will win the ~85 games necessary to win beat them out for the division.

Looks like a 12 year old seeing a breaking ball for the first time

They’re in a great position to win the AL Central the next few years

Oops

Damn humidor 

Lucas has zero margin for error now. It's remarkable how quickly he's fallen in such a short period of time.

Flat 93 mph fastball

Yep he’s basically turned into a finesse pitcher with spotty command

Maybe by 2025 they'll realize the organizational approach to hitting is broken

Even the starts with good results it's all smoke & mirrors. He hasn't shown any signs of being a sustainably effective pitcher since before going on the covid IL.

Giolito continues to underwhelm

35 pitches, one swing and miss

Royals and Guardians lineups improved because of rookies, Twins because of trades, White Sox have contributions from neither of those sources this year.

Guardians also have done an insane job of developing Gimenez

Eloy's overall production has been great, but it's so White Sox that even with absurd quality of contact he's still hitting for below average power

Lindor is still really good, but right now I think you'd say Gimenez is the best player in that deal

Ball was killed by Sheets. Just bad luck there ?

I'm a fan of his, but I'd guess even the Royals broadcast doesn't spend this much time hyping up Michael Massey

2 more singles should finally get Eloy home

Good thing the ball doesn't carry to right center.
