There still is a LOT of season left.
The Guardians are a bullpen-dependent team, and the rotation is pretty weak in 3/5 spots. They have 4 relievers who have thrown 30+ innings with an ERA under 2. They have 2 more with ERAs under 3, and 2 more with ERAs under 3.75. And the non-Clase guys that are pitching at elite levels don't really have a carrying peripheral that would suggest they should be that elite. Luck is going to normalize some of that, especially as workloads pile up (because the rotation is leaving a lot of games early). Don't get swept. Break even or better. It would be awesome to win 3/4 or 4/4. 4/4 would be incredible, but 4-game sweeps are so damn hard. Also: Drill Jose Ramirez in the ****ing back in his first at-bat in the series. |

Some of you all are ridiculous. We are just past the half way mark of the season and some of you are acting like this is the series of the season. 2-2 would be perfectly fine, because a 4 game series out of 162 games isn't gonna be the difference maker.

As always, I hope they win consistently. But can you really be faulted for looking at our roster and seeing a shit sandwich? Has the club's brain trust earned unquestioning faith in the face of an abysmal track record? Is the cupboard not so laughably bare, that impactful trade deadline acquisitions seem nearly impossible? Should they prove me wrong, I’ll enjoy the run as much as anybody else, even lavishing in my own ridicule and sticking around to take my medicine. With that out of the way...
