The Guardians currently have the lead in the American League Central and for the second seed in the American League. What do they need to do in the remaining schedule to hang on to that lead?
To begin, I’d like to acknowledge that this is baseball and weird things happen all the time. The Royals, due to some unfortunate injury regression, are falling out of the race for the AL Central title, but that could all change in the time ahead. Heck, even the Mariners could get super hot and overtake the Astros, or the Tigers could put together a miraculous September run.
