The Cleveland Indians were the hottest team in all of MLB at the start of May, going 15-4 for the first 19 games and grabbing first place in the AL Central.
The team has since cooled to 3-8 for the last 11 and has relinquished the top rung to the Tigers, but they had a solid month. The Indians had plenty of star players for the period but also had underperformers as well.
There were players who really shined including some walk-off heroes and some pitchers who delivered some outstanding performances on the mound.
This slideshow will detail the performances of my choices for the three stars for May along with the three biggest stiffs who didn't deliver. I will also detail three players who just missed out on both categories and mention some other notables.
The No. 3 star will be my choice for the worst of the best, if you will, and the No. 3 stiff will be the best of the worst. Let's start with the honorable mentions in the three stars category.
All stats are for the month of May only and can be found here on MLB.com.
