The Guardians’ once-promising playoff aspirations took a significant hit this weekend, as the Atlanta Braves delivered a three-game sweep at Progressive Field that left players, coaches, and fans facing a harsh reality check about this team’s postseason chances.

Profar’s two-run homer off Nic Enright in the sixth inning was enough for the Atlanta Braves to beat the Guardians, 5-4, and complete a three-game sweep of the home team. The Guardians, who were one of baseball’s hottest teams a minute ago, have lost five of their last seven games.

Michael Harris II homered and doubled, Nacho Alvarez Jr. and Nick Allen each had three hits and the Atlanta Braves beat the Cleveland Guardians 10-1.

The Guardians have been one of MLB’s hottest teams over the last few weeks, primarily because of the offense. Cleveland had a team slash line of 251/.326/.421 from the All-Star Break heading into their series against the Braves. However, Atlanta found a way to shut the Guardians’ bats down.

Waldrep, making just his fifth big league start, limited the Guardians to two hits and two walks while striking out seven in six innings. He allowed a two-out double by Kwan in the third and a Kwan leadoff single in the sixth to go along with a pair of Kyle Manzardo walks on the way to his third win.

The Cleveland Guardians have recalled left-hander Tim Herrin and optioned lefty Joey Cantillo to Triple-A Columbus.
