The American League Central, once considered the weakest division in baseball, now features four competitive teams: the Detroit Tigers, Kansas City Royals, Cleveland Guardians, and Minnesota Twins. The Tigers, led by AL Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal, have the best record in the division, supported by strong performances from players like Spencer Torkelson and Casey Mize. Meanwhile, the Royals rely on their impressive pitching staff, the Guardians have seen offensive improvements despite pitching struggles, and the Twins are revitalized by the health of key players, suggesting a promising postseason for the division.
