The World Series is over. The Los Angeles Dodgers are champions and the MLB offseason is here. How do the Guardians get over the hump from being division contenders to World Series contenders? This episode debates what the Guardians roster and organization needs to get to another World Series. We discuss if the Guardians can replicate their pitching factory days and if that's feasible and even enough. The show also talks about the major hitting issues that has held them back the last few seasons. And we get into the changes the Guardians made to their draft strategy and why this could have them back on a better track to leverage their farm system in trades.   12:17 Guardians' Pitching Strategy19:52 Guardians' Hitting Philosophy26:34 Farm System and Trades33:28 International and Draft Strategy38:05 Payroll and Team Strategy39:40 AFL Prospects Update Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!PrizePicksDownload the app today and use code LOCKEDONMLB to win $50 instantly when you play your first $5 lineup.

MLB Trade rumors haven't quite heated up yet because the offseason hasn't fully started in earnest. But we've already seen what people thought was a rumor pop back up into circulation while we're waiting for the offseason to begin. This episode looks back at some trade discussion that may have taken place in some capacity between the Cleveland Guardians and Chicago Cubs back in July and how legitimate it was and if it's really a rumor with any legs. The show also looks at what has to happen for a Josh Naylor trade to make sense for the Guardians and the decisions around it that would have to unfold. We end the show by discussing other potential Guardians trade candidates and some hopeful trade targets. 5:28 Nico Horner Trade Rumors10:19 Cubs and Guardians Communication15:30 Josh Naylor Trade Considerations20:00 Moneyball Approach to Roster Management31:41 Trade Candidates and Reliever Value35:56 Potential Trade Partners and Pitching39:54 Offseason Plans and Coaching Changes Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!PrizePicksDownload the app today and use code LOCKEDONMLB to win $50 instantly when you play your first $5 lineup.

Back in 1997/1998, Cleveland was very interested in trading for then-Expos ace Pedro Martinez. What if Cleveland had pulled off a trade to land the Hall of Fame starter heading into 1998? This is a What If Wednesday episode of Locked On Guardians that explores the what if of Cleveland possibly trading for Martinez. Could they have won it all in 1998? Would they have kept him? Would they have missed out on a future trade because of it? This episode also talks about current Guardians bench coach Craig Albernaz being in consideration for the White Sox and Marlins job (recorded before the news of the White Sox hiring Will Venable), and what implications that could have for Stephen Vogt and the Guardians coaching staff for 2025. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!PrizePicksDownload the app today and use code LOCKEDONMLB to win $50 instantly when you play your first $5 lineup.

One of the top questions the Guardians will face this offseason is Josh Naylor's pending free agency. This episode debates if the Guardians should run it back with Josh Naylor in 2025, or could they find a way to improve the team while trading him. The show also gets into Chase DeLauter's future, discussing his current time in the AFL in 2024 and if they need to keep the path to right field clear for him at the risk of not making any external upgrades. We also have our first discussion about the 2025 MLB Draft. We know where Cleveland will likely be picking and who are the first names we have our eyes on at that spot.   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!PrizePicksDownload the app today and use code LOCKEDONMLB to win $50 instantly when you play your first $5 lineup.
