00:00hottest team in baseball right now or one of the hottest teams in baseball the Miami Marlins are

00:04hotter than a match at the moment but the Cleveland Guardians are the hottest team in

00:07the American League the Detroit Tigers are the coldest team in the American League we just

00:11talked about the Tigers and where our questions lie Cleveland again sits a game back in the

00:17division right now and oh by the way they're tied with Houston for the final wild card spot it is

00:23amazing to me that one of Boston Cleveland Houston or Detroit will not be dancing in October and I

00:34hope Cleveland is not the team left out because they have willed their way into the conversation

00:39again entering play on Tuesday they are 84 and 72 just amazing stuff from the Cleveland Guardians

00:45they have been ridiculously good I wish I could shout out someone other than Jose Ramirez I

00:53can but that guy deserves all the flowers he is one of the best players that we've had in this

01:01generation I'm going to be so excited when he's a first ballot hall of famer oh by the way really

01:07good complimentary pieces and Stephen Kwan and others Manzardo is swinging a little bit right now

01:12I I'm just a huge fan of what guard ball has going on in terms of questions I don't know what I have

01:18like can you maintain this out-of-body experience that you're having yeah exactly you know I want

01:23to ask like who's who's the next guy you fear right because Kwan's been great of late back to

01:28the table setter Ramirez is the master and then I think the next best power bat you've got is

01:33clearly Kyle Manzardo right now but it doesn't really matter because we saw last year that they're

01:38just going to deploy guys in situations for success lefty that you think Jenkinsy Noel can go get

01:44he's going to pinch hit if it's a a righty it'll maybe be a Schneeman star I just I don't know but

01:51it still should be the question that I'm going to ask is just who's going to be that other guy that

01:56compliments this group Valera's been swinging it since he got up there that's been fun to see

02:00Bo Naylor has been having one of the best stretches of his big league career so I like we know the guys at

02:06the top I think Kwan Ramirez and Manzardo are clearly just they're gonna perform I mean one is a

02:12superstar the other two at least are going to carry their weight is anybody else going to be

02:15better than a platoon option and that's I think that's my big that's my big question yeah that's

02:20totally fair I also don't have a question about the rotation actually I do who do you leave out if

02:25you're going to go with a three-man rotation who do you leave out Joey Cantillo has been throwing

02:29out of his freaking mind I love watching this guy pitch oh by the way Tanner Bybee has worked 21 and

02:37two-thirds of three-run baseball punching out 21 and walking three this month Cantillo and four

02:42starts in September in 23 and a third has allowed three runs it's a 1.16 era Gavin Williams 18 innings

02:50a three-run ball and then Logan Allen through three starts in September has an era at two the bullpen

02:56has been awesome but the rotation has been the best in baseball this month I love watching them pitch

03:02I feel like you leave Logan Allen out right now by the way just when uh eight shutty uh last time

03:08out but yeah it's like it's impossible to say you can leave anybody out right now exactly and that's

03:14why I think they're in a really good spot and oh by the way you know they lost Ortiz who was a key

03:20rotation piece in class a who was one of the best closers in baseball so uh this team is just incredible

03:26you
