Guardians at Trade Deadline Crossroads | Cleveland Guardians News

The Guardians are one and a half games behind first place with the trade deadline fast approaching — their pitching is elite, but offense is struggling badly, leaving great starts to go to waste. With runners in scoring position struggling and runs scored near the bottom of the league, a trade is almost inevitable. They’re targeting right-handed bats, but the market is tight — potential targets are injured or in high demand. The team may have to part with prospects, including top Triple-A performer Kyle Manzardo or even Stephen Kwan, despite their current form. With defense and pitching already strong, the only missing piece is consistent offense — and they’ve got until Monday at 5 PM to find it, or risk missing the postseason window.
