Entering Monday night, the Royals found themselves firmly placed in the basement of the American League Central. Sitting 24 games back of .500, their road woes and inept bullpen have resulted in a poor first half for the most part. However, for the Cleveland Indians, the winning record is far from indication of how 2019 has progressed for them. Plagued with a multitude of injuries to their core talents, the Indians inability to stay healthy has allowed the Minnesota Twins to build a hefty lead in first place. Despite holding the title of division champs for three consecutive seasons, Cleveland’s window for World Series contention is fading faster than most had envisioned.
