Summary
The Guardians are in a slump, trailing the White Sox by a half-game in the AL Central after losing seven of their last ten games — and their bullpen, once their biggest strength, is now their biggest weakness. But hope lies in the arms of Cade Smith, who leads MLB with 21 saves and has 18 straight successful outings, plus Colin Holderman, who’s rebounded from Triple-A to post a 1.80 ERA and four holds, and Hunter Gaddis, a reliable setup man with nine holds despite a recent rough outing. With a big weekend series against the Tigers and a crucial showdown with the White Sox looming, the Guardians need their bullpen to rediscover form — and fast — if they’re going to claw back into first place.
