The Cleveland Guardians and outfield troubles go together like, I don’t know, peanut butter and ... mayonnaise? It’s not peanut and butter and jelly because that’s common and delicious. But peanut butter and mayonnaise are both common and also bad together.
Yeah, that works, that’s basically how Cleveland’s outfield has felt for the last decade. Like peanut butter and mayonnaise sandwich. Probably toasted. And, unless something changes soon, they will roll into 2022 with the same outfield that finished a combined 91 wRC+ in 2021 — 12th in the American League.
Myles Straw was a pleasant surprise for the Guards after coming over from the Astros, at least.
