Cleveland Guardians, a privately owned company based in the US, was founded in 1896 and operates with approximately 1060 employees. The company specializes in spectator sports, functioning as an American professional baseball team competing in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member club of the American League (AL) Central Division. Since 1994, the team has played its home games at Progressive Field. Since their establishment as a Major League franchise in 1901, the team has won 11 Central Division titles, six American League pennants, and two World Series championships (in 1920 and 1948). The team's World Series championship drought since 1948 is the longest active among all 30 current Major League teams. The team's name references the Guardians of Traffic, eight monolithic 1932 Art Deco sculptures by Henry Hering on the city's Hope Memorial Bridge, which is adjacent to Progressive Field. The team's mascot is named "Slider," and its spring training facility is at Goodyear Ballpark in Goodyear, Arizona.
The Cleveland Guardians' offense showed signs of improvement in 2026 but continued to grapple with consistency and power issues, ranking 18th in the majors with 31 homers as of May 2, with Jose Ramirez, Chase DeLauter, and Angel Martinez accounting for over half. Previously, on May 1, the Guardians promoted outfielder Petey Halpin from Columbus, following their decision on April 30 to send George Valera to Triple-A. Valera, initially projected as a starting outfielder for 2026 after a strong finish in 2025, had his plans derailed by a left calf strain in mid-March. His demotion also occurred as the team prepared for a seven-game road trip. Earlier on April 28, the Guardians officially promoted top prospect Travis Bazzana from Triple-A, with fellow prospect Juan Brito moving to Columbus in a corresponding roster adjustment.
