The 2024 Cleveland Guardians season is the 124th season for the franchise, which competes in the American League of Major League Baseball (MLB). This is the franchise's third season using the name "Guardians" and the first season under manager Stephen Vogt after previous manager Terry Francona stepped down at the conclusion of the previous season. The season opened on March 28, 2024 on the road against the Oakland Athletics and is scheduled to end on September 29, 2024 at home against the Houston Astros.[1] With a win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on August 30, the Guardians improved on their 76–86 record from the previous season.

On September 19, the Guardians clinched a postseason berth with a 3–2 win against the Minnesota Twins via a walk-off single by Andrés Giménez in extra innings. They became the second American League team after the New York Yankees to clinch a postseason berth of 2024. It will be their seventh postseason appearance in the past 12 seasons.[2]. On September 21, the Guardians clinched their 12th American League Central division title following the Kansas City Royals' loss to the San Francisco Giants. It is their second division title in the past three years.[3]
