The division is home to three teams involved in rebuilds, including the White Sox, Detroit Tigers, and Kansas City Royals.
Four of the five teams have records below .500, which is the most of any division in the MLB.
Despite the poor records, there have been a few bright spots in the AL Central and Yolmer Sanchez has quietly been one of them.
In an article by Jason Beck with MLB.com, Sanchez and four other AL Central players were featured as unsung heroes in this disappointing division. Beck also showcased pitchers Mike Clevinger and Brad Keller as well as outfielder JaCoby Jones and infielder Eduardo Escobar.
