Cleveland Guardians fans are very disappointed in their team after they were trounced by the Houston Astros, losing 6-0. The Guardians were one game behind the Minnesota Twins for the division lead and a win in this game would have set them up nicely. Now, the path to winning the American League Central is even harder than it was before.The Houston Astros are a dominant team and are capable of beating the best the MLB has to offer. While this win was not neccesarrily a surprise, most fans would not have expected a shutout. Holding any team to zero runs is an impressive feat.Cleveland Guardians fans, of course, did not respect the accomplishments of this feat, and expected more from their team.Michael2021@StarKill3r2002@CleGuardians What an ugly game all around if I say so myself1@CleGuardians What an ugly game all around if I say so myselfThere are not many positives coming out of this game for the Guardians.CLEology@_CLEologyWhalllllle, that was an ass beating twitter.com/cleguardians/s…Cleveland Guardians@CleGuardiansTomorrow.#ForTheLand111Tomorrow.#ForTheLand https://t.co/k1jsk5X1eIWhalllllle, that was an ass beating twitter.com/cleguardians/s…Many fear that this loss to the Houston Astros represents the level that the Guardians are at. They are good enough to beat teams under .500, but not good enough to beat great teams. The worst thing you can do as a team in the MLB is accept mediocrity. They are trapped between two different tiers of teams and are unable to break through to the next level.JM85@Mal0307@CleGuardians Can’t hang with the big boys2@CleGuardians Can’t hang with the big boysPizzabob@9fdc4b9b84894d1@CleGuardians Same old thing.
