NEW YORK -- One of the prevailing storylines for the Guardians this season has been the contributions of up-and-coming position players such as Travis

CLEVELAND -- To watch the 2026 Guardians once again assert themselves at the top of the AL Central is to see what can happen when a ballclub on a budget nails the first round of the amateur Draft. As Gavin Williams (23rd overall pick, 2021) cements himself as a top-end

The 2026 season is underway, and there's no better place to watch all the action than on CLEGUARDIANS.TV presented by Progressive.

CLEVELAND -- Catcher Austin Hedges’ body language perfectly captured the Guardians' agony and frustration of the moment. Rather than Cleveland escaping a bases-loaded, two-out jam with a strikeout, the full-count offering from Tim Herrin to Boston’s Wilyer Abreu was called ball four. Herrin’s four-seam fastball to Abreu appeared to catch

Baseball's best rookie in May turned pro for $140,000 out of the Dominican Republic and ranked just 19th on MLB Pipeline's preseason Angels Top 30 Prospects list. The second-best went No. 1 overall in the 2024 Draft and signed for $8.95 million. Successful rookies come from a wide variety of

Toward the end of the 2023 season, Blue Jays prospect Peyton Williams wore a t-shirt to a player meeting emblazoned with the logo for his neighbor's company, Iowa Meat Truck. The shirt was an immediate hit with his High-A Vancouver teammates. Players and coaches loved it, and they quickly decided

CLEVELAND -- The Guardians received encouraging news on outfielder Angel Martínez's left foot injury, which forced the 24-year-old from Saturday’s 9-1 loss to the Red Sox at Progressive Field and necessitated him undergoing an MRI afterward. Martínez has a “mild mid-foot strain.” Guardians president of baseball operations Chris Antonetti said

CLEVELAND -- The Guardians remain high on Peyton Pallette’s potential to be an impactful big league reliever. They’ll have to watch that play out from afar after they officially parted ways with the 25-year-old on Sunday. Pallette has been returned to the White Sox, from whom the Guardians selected him

CLEVELAND -- There tend to be a few moments that ultimately matter when a ballgame is decided by one run. For the Guardians, one of those came in the second inning on Friday. Guardians left fielder Angel Martínez picked up an outfield assist to end the top of second, when

CLEVELAND -- The Guardians placed Steven Kwan on the bereavement/family medical emergency list, and in a corresponding move on Friday selected fellow outfielder Stuart Fairchild from Triple-A Columbus. The Guardians also transferred infielder Gabriel Arias (left hamstring strain) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL, in a procedural

CLEVELAND -- Earlier this month, Guardians catcher Austin Hedges was asked whether anything about left-hander Parker Messick seemed rookie-like. “Not really, man,” Hedges said. “From the preparation, the routine, the recovery, the mentality, the confidence in himself, that's a really polished rookie.”

CLEVELAND -- Travis Bazzana and Chase DeLauter entered 2026 with zero combined games of regular-season big league experience. Granted, DeLauter got a taste when he made his MLB debut during the ‘25 postseason, but his two-game stint was far from a long runway. And yet, if you didn’t know any

As the calendar gets set to turn to June, Draft buzz is picking up exponentially. Scouts are scattered all over the country with NCAA Division I Regional play kicking off on Friday while also planning to see high schoolers in action for the last time in state playoffs. The Draft

CLEVELAND -- Travis Kelce has prized childhood memories of taking the RTA to downtown Cleveland and making his way to Progressive Field to catch a baseball game. Now, the Cleveland Heights native and diehard Cleveland sports fan is joining the Guardians' organization in an ownership capacity. Kelce, the Kansas City

We say it every year, and it bears repeating again: the Draft is hard. Front offices spend years scouting and analyzing a particular Draft class, but even the best baseball minds can’t predict what will happen with absolute certainty in the years after. Take the 2021 class ahead of its

CLEVELAND -- Will Dion had a few opportunities on Tuesday to look around Progressive Field to soak in the atmosphere. What he was experiencing truly began to hit him in those moments, such as when he walked out to the bullpen and later ran from it to the pitcher's mound.

CLEVELAND -- Daniel Schneemann isn’t valuable to the Guardians merely because he can play a half-dozen positions. He’s valuable because he’s exceptional defensively no matter where Cleveland puts him. We saw that in action once more on Tuesday night in a 6-3 loss to the Nationals. Schneemann robbed Nationals third

CLEVELAND -- The Guardians don’t have a precise timetable for Erik Sabrowski’s return quite yet, but they’re optimistic (and perhaps breathing a sigh of relief) after getting back MRI results on the setup man’s left elbow. The Guardians placed Sabrowski on the 15-day injured list on Monday with left elbow
