Last season, the Indians fell short of their goal, finishing the season out of the playoffs despite having a winning record for the second consecutive season. The Tigers made the playoffs but were quickly knocked out, while the Kansas City Royals went from Wild Card winners to ALCS champs before falling to the Giants in the World Series. Will history repeat itself, or are the Indians poised to take over as the reigning AL Central champions?
