CLEVELAND (AP) — Top of the AL Central. Top of the MLB draft.
It's been a season of firsts for Cleveland.
Along with opening a surprising lead in their division with a strong three-plus months under rookie manager Stephen Vogt, the Guardians have the No. 1 overall pick in next week's draft. It's a selection that has the potential to alter the franchise's trajectory for years to come.
As long as they make the correct one.
