The American League Central is sending three teams to the ALDS, just like we all expected.
After winning the division and earning the bye, the Cleveland Guardians will face the Detroit Tigers in a best-of-five series. The Tigers are coming off a 2-0 sweep of the Houston Astros, who were eliminated before the ALCS for the first time in eight years.
Detroit earned its first playoff series win since 2013, the last time the team advanced to the ALCS.
Cleveland is the betting favorite to return to the ALCS for the first time since 2016.
