As the season progresses, we're going to continue to look at each division around Major League Baseball and break them down and try to really get to the bottom of who is a contender and who is not.
Over the next week, we'll take a look at each division around the league with the simple question: Legit or fraud?
Cleveland Guardians
Record: 24-21
Biggest Surprise: José Ramírez hasn't been able to get it going for the Guardians yet this season. He's batting .210 with six homers and 16 RBIs, but does have 16 stolen bases.
MVP: Parker Messick: The young hurler has a 2.30 ERA in eight starts so far this season for Cleveland. You can't really ask for much more out of a 25-year-old hurler in their first full season in the majors.
