The Cleveland Guardians are a Major League Baseball (MLB) team based in Cleveland, Ohio, competing in the American League (AL) Central Division. Established in 1901 as the Cleveland Blues, the team has gone through several name changes before becoming the Guardians in 2021, a move that marked a shift from their previous name, the Indians, which had been used for over a century. The name “Guardians” is a tribute to the iconic “Guardians of Traffic” statues that stand on Cleveland’s Hope Memorial Bridge, symbolizing the city’s history and progress.

The Guardians have a rich baseball tradition, with two World Series championships in 1920 and 1948, though they have made multiple postseason appearances in recent decades. Progressive Field, located in downtown Cleveland, has been their home ballpark since 1994 and is known for providing an intimate and fan-friendly experience.

Notable players in Guardians history include Hall of Famers like Bob Feller, Larry Doby, and more recently, Jim Thome. Despite the long World Series drought since 1948, the team has consistently fielded competitive rosters, with their most recent World Series appearance in 2016, when they lost in a dramatic seven-game series to the Chicago Cubs.

The Guardians are committed to building a competitive team through a mix of homegrown talent and strategic acquisitions, with an emphasis on strong pitching and player development. They remain an integral part of Cleveland’s sports culture, contributing to the city’s identity and pride.
