Highlights: The Guardians are currently at a pivotal point in their season, sitting at .500. Trade discussions are heating up, with players like Carlos Santana and Emmanuel Clase being considered. Terry Pluto suggests the Guardians should stay the course for now and not rush into trades. The Tigers' turnaround last season serves as a potential model for the Guardians. The Guardians lack a clear identity this season, struggling in both pitching and hitting. Player performance in the minors does not always translate to success in the majors. Listener email asks about the Guardians' logjam at the designated hitter position with David Fry, Carlos Santana and Kyle Manzardo. A listener asks: Why can't the Guardians develop hitting stars as well as pitching stars? Darius Garland's injury complicates his trade value and future with the Cavs. The Cavs may not make significant moves this offseason due to Garland's situation. Should the Cavs consider bringing Jarrett Allen off the bench? A listener asks: How about shortening NBA games to 40 minutes? The Cleveland Browns have had 40 quarterbacks since 1999. Here's who's tied Deshaun Watson with 19 games. Nick Chubb has a classy departure to Houston.
