Despite making it to the ALCS last year, the Guardians are facing challenges this season with a subpar offense and a struggling bullpen, putting their playoff position in jeopardy. They've made improvements to their lineup but have dropped to having the eighth-worst offense in Major League Baseball, and their pitching staff ranks poorly as well. Particularly concerning is the performance of their bullpen, which has significantly decreased in effectiveness compared to last year, raising doubts about their postseason viability.
While the Guardians have a solid record and remain in playoff contention, they face significant challenges, particularly with their declining offense and the underperformance of their once-elite bullpen.
The Guardians' offense has ranked among the bottom in the league with a wRC+ of 93, and the bullpen, which was extremely reliable last season, is now performing below average.
