Locked On Indians

The Guardians traded for Lane Thomas from the Nationals in exchange for LHP Alex Clemmey, INF Rafael Ramirez Jr., and INF Jose Tena.

The Guardians have struggled in July, yet won a series against the Phillies this weekend, the best team in baseball. Today's episode covers how the Guardians pulled out this series win, how aggressive Stephen Vogt with the bullpen Sunday to win this game, and how Cade Smith is the current Andrew Miller for Cleveland. We also quickly get into Joey Cantillo's debut and why they went in this direction for the game. We spend a lot of time in this episode reacting to the trades that have already happened, why Cleveland didn't make any of them, and we list some targets and why Cleveland hasn't been involved in many rumors, and why that doesn't mean they won't do anything. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Stitch FixWith Stitch Fix, you get a Stylist who understands your style, size and budget—they do all the shopping for you!

The MLB trading deadline is upon us.

The Guardians pulled off a close 2-1 win over the Tigers that seemed like an ordinary win in the box score. Today's episode gets into why it was anything but ordinary after losing Tanner Bibee to a leg cramp while he was cruising, and the bullpen had to step in yet again while the offense did just enough to pick up a win. We also talk about Bo Naylor's underrated night in the win. Justin floats an idea about the reverse of showcases Brayan Rocchio amidst the weird saga with him, and then actually sort of posturing to showcase Juan Brito in a trade. More importantly, we touch on why it would be a bad idea for the Guardians to trade a reliever right now and why we think it doesn't make sense. And we also discuss why it's OK to trade prospects at the deadline, because history across the league and Cleveland's history shows it will be fine. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SupplyHouseSupplyHouse.com is the reliable way to get parts fast.

The Guardians stopped their three-game losing streak with three homers and solid pitching against the Tigers. Today's episode talks about this team's rare ability to avoid long-losing streaks despite the one thing that usually is the main ingredient. We also discuss that despite the recent struggles, the Guardians have the biggest division lead in the American League and remain tied for the best record in the AL, which should really put the onus on the front office to be aggressive at the deadline. Also on today's show:- Why Xzavion Curry made this start and not Logan Allen- Pitching prospect risers in the system this year. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SupplyHouseSupplyHouse.com is the reliable way to get parts fast.

Despite 12 hits against the Tigers and Tarik Skubal, the Guardians offense struggled to score runs in another loss. Today's episode talks about why the Guardians aren't panicking despite the recent struggles and why you're not seeing any yelling or anger from the team. We also dive into why it's time for the team to make a change at shortstop and why it's hard to try to continue to try to develop young players at the major league level and win. And we also get into which players would make sense for the Guardians to make a change at shortstop and why it makes sense now.   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SupplyHouseSupplyHouse.com is the reliable way to get parts fast.

Travis Bazzana's signing bonus and contract with the Cleveland Guardians is signed in ink and on the books. Today's episode asks if this is the most hyped Guardians prospect we've ever seen and why he just might be. We also discuss why we think Bazzana has a chance to be with the Guardians in September.   We also look at some of the recent pitching performances in the minors and if there is any help on the way for this rotation outside of the trade deadline hopes.   At the end of the episode, we get into the Guardians offense and if it's a "rookie" or young player wall, a slump, or if the Guardians should be in "fix" mode for the offense given their positioning, which we'll get into more on Tuesday's show.   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SupplyHouseSupplyHouse.com is the reliable way to get parts fast.

The second half is finally upon us. Some projections don't think the Cleveland Guardians can finish the job and win the AL Central. Do we think the Guardians can win the division? What part of the team needs to perform best (besides starting pitching) in the second half to him them win it? Who do the Guardians need a big second half from? We also get into trade targets as we rank the potential options available among the starting pitching trade market and we get into the bats and relievers available. There's a bat that should be available that is flying under the radar. And we look at the first draft signing bonuses so far.   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SupplyHouseSupplyHouse.com is the reliable way to get parts fast.
