I think they can at least be selective with Kwan and really get the best package. Maybe they hold onto him thru the 2026 season. But that reduces their return unless they trade him in the offseason before 2027. I think the likeliest scenario is he is traded this time next year, unless the Guardians are in 1st and really feel like they can win an AL Pennant. 

Trading him also paves the way for CDL (if he can stay healthy), Mazardo (1B or DH), and Kayfus (OF or 1B) to actually all play and remove the logjam that signing Santana has provided. 

I would much rather they NOT trade him. I am just trying to read the tea leaves on everything and what the organization usually does. 

A fair assessment. I spent the week in NYC and, just because of proximity, read about the Yankees and Mets a lot.  Would love the feeling of knowing if I have a player on my team I’d love, they will stay on my team like people there get.

Such is the conundrum of baseball.

Back to under .500. 

16 errors in the last nine games. 

Give away a 6-1 lead.

They stink. Just bring Delauter up. 

Attended today. The six run inning was friggin awesome. But then we got to enjoy it for about 5 minutes. When their offense goes cold, holy crap. 

June record 9-15 up to today, where we’re down 3-0 in the 6th. 

Also, yesterday’s first pitch home run was the fricking 6th time it’s happened this year!

7-0. 3 hits and 2 errors. I was looking at the box scores since this home-stand on the 24th, they have 13 errors. Seems like a lot?

I believe it’s now 18 errors in the last ten games.

June record ends at 9-16. Last ten games 3-7. 

Also, I was just looking at the wild card standings. There are only 5 teams doing worse that the Guardians at this point. Six teams are ahead of CLE battling for the third wild card spot. 

Lifeless. Be sellers. Get a haul for Clase.  All il Brito, CDL, Kayfus and start their development.

Tribe was 6-21 in June and scored the fewest runs in the majors.

I don’t know where Terry is getting this figure, but by my count, the team is 9-19 since June 1….with a current 7 game losing streak.

Ha yea I just counted 9 wins on the app. 

One run is all it takes. 

Losing streak at 9.

Ouch. Actually pitched well today, 1 hitter through 9. Went into the 10th 1-1, and lost 7-2. 

Tribe’s in a flat spin, headed out to sea.

I’m afraid there’s going to be no recovery from this. 

Sad to watch; no offense

Its the worst offense since the new ballpark. Just a joke of an organization to not address this in the offseason or so far in season.

They are incompetent, but try to win. 

Dolans are competent, but refuse to try to win.

Agree with your second sentence, corrected your first.
