The Guardians hung on for a win over the Tigers after having a big early lead. Today's episode discusses the decision not to pull Ben Lively after a line drive hit his leg, and what other needs are being identified every game that the Guardians should address at the deadline.

We also discuss how teams are able to 'buy' players down the board in the draft and how that all works, as it's something Cleveland is looking to do in the 2024 MLB Draft.

And on that note, we also talk about some of the players that would be in the conversation at the 36/48 picks with that extra money.

The Guardians won a hard-fought series against the Giants and haven't lost a series at home since April, the only one all year. Today's Locked On Guardians dives into the Guardians getting five All-Stars and the chance they have to dominate the conversation All-Star weekend with those five representatives plus two players in the Futures Game and the #1 pick in the MLB Draft.

We marvel at how well Angel Martinez has fit into the majors being thrust into the second spot in the order and how long of a chance Jhonkensy Noel will and should get with Will Brennan coming back and the enigma that is Gabriel Arias.

At the end, we quickly get into why the Guardians might have taken a flier on Spencer Howard and what the immediate future is for Logan Allen.
