This is true. But this seems like it was taken from an random name generator from a 90s baseball game

Guar-dians. Essentially removing "In" and replacing it with Guar. So not really random. But as stated, Cleveland Rocks (or Rockers) would have been a cooler moniker

[nsacpi]

Maybe the Braves have their eyes on Rockers.

There is a bit of history.

It should have been the Gwar-dians.

I think I rather refer to them as the Cleveland Steamers. Absolutely refuse to acknowledge the absurdity of their name change. If you want to change names go to a different city imo or atleast give us name like Washington football Team that is hilarious.

Why should they go to a different city? Though don't tempt their owners, they may consider it.

THey've been in the process of distancing themselves from the Indians name for a long time, their Logo changed in 2014 which means they've probably been working towards this for a decade or so.

Though I would like Cleveland Baseball Team. I would be down with that. Mascots are just kind of dumb anyway. Consider baseball team names.

Chicago White Sox - Lame
Detroit Tigers - Lame
Kansas City Royals -Lame
Minnesota Twins - Best of that division by a ton
Baltimore Orioles - Lame
Boston Red Sox - Lame
New York Yankees - Not even the most Yankee team in baseball
Tampa Bay Rays - Lame
Toronto Blue Jays - Lame
Houston Astros - Lame
LA Angels - Lame
Oakland Athletcs -how exciting and generic.
Seattle Mariners - Probably the best team name in baseball.
Texas Rangers - GET IT? LIKE THE STATE POLICE

Chicago Cubs - Lame
Cincinnati Reds - Cool
Milwaukee Brewers - decent
Pittsburgh Pirates - Lame
St. Louis Cardinals - Lame
Atlanta Braves - Lame
Miami Marlins - Super Lame
New York Mets - decent
Philadelphia Phillies - good
Washington Nationals - Lame
Arizona Diamondbacks - Lame
Colorado ROckies - Lame
LA Dodgers - Used to mean something, now it means nothing
SD Padres - not terrible
San Francisco Giants - Lame.

The idea of mascots are just kind of lame. I get it from a marketing stand point, but it's pretty lame.

report today is that "most" of Bauers' Dodger teammates don't want him back with the team.

That puts the Dodgers in an interesting place with a $45m pitcher

I wonder how the Braves players feel about Ozuna.

[bravesfanforlife88]

I wonder how the Braves players feel about Ozuna.

I'm still shocked nothing has been done about him. Not that I was expecting him back in the dugout, but I at least expected him to be placed on the admin leave.

[NYCBrave]

I wonder how the Braves players feel about Ozuna.

If it means anything, I just checked and Freeman is still following Ozuna on Instagram. I think it was previously reported that most Dodgers players had unfollowed Bauer almost immediately after the incident went down.

Yeah. Not that instagram follows really mean anything.

I'm still naively holding out hope that Ozuna is telling the truth and he has proof to prove his innocence, whatever that means. Also wouldn't be the first time cops get things wrong. So we will see there. Seems to be more "proof" against what Bauer did. Whatever happens hopefully justice actually prevails in both cases.

He’s innocent, wupk.

This is OJ and Aaron Hernandez all over again.

Have you heard the theory that it was OJ's son that killed Nicole?

[DirkPiggler]

Can't be true. OJ pledged to work tirelessly to find the real killer. No way he would've missed someone right under his nose.

[50PoundHead]

It's too bad he had to go to prison. It forced him to take time off from searching every golf course in the country for Nicole's killer.

[WaitingFor2017]

Christian Yelich and Jace Peterson to miss Braves series due to COVID protocols.

Christian Yelich and Jace Peterson to miss Braves series due to COVID protocols.

Jace has become a decent hitter.

If we can scrap 3-4 runs per game, should win the series

[Deester11]

Like Dave Chapelle said.."My blackness will not allow me to.....Um...."
