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

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 -- 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.

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.

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

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.

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.

CLEVELAND -- Given how Tanner Bibee struggled Monday against the Nationals, manager Stephen Vogt’s postgame media session understandably centered upon the right-hander. Sometimes, the skipper relayed, you just have a bad day at the office.

CLEVELAND -- A Guardians bullpen that has been rolling this month will be without setup man Erik Sabrowski for the foreseeable future. The Guardians placed Sabrowski on the 15-day injured list on Monday (retroactive to May 22) with left elbow inflammation, and in a corresponding move recalled right-hander Codi Heuer

CLEVELAND -- The Guardians entered Monday leading the American League in stolen bases (54), and no one better exemplifies a team that has been pushing the envelope on the basepaths than José Ramírez. Ramírez leads the AL with 20 steals. He entered Monday on pace for 58 this season, which

DETROIT -- For eight innings on Wednesday, the Guardians’ offense was silent, once again unable to muster an ounce of run support for starter Tanner Bibee. Heading into the ninth inning, there was a common goal inside the first-base dugout at Comerica Park. “It really felt like the guys wanted

DETROIT -- The Guardians can always count on Steven Kwan to play strong defense in left and center field. That’s a key element of the four-time Gold Glove Award winner’s stardom, along with an elite hit tool that has lagged behind this season and led to Kwan’s demotion from Cleveland’s

DETROIT -- While the Guardians’ big league roster full of rising talent continues to be a ton of fun to watch, there’s a lot of interesting things happening with Triple-A Columbus, too. Add another reason to the list. On Monday, the Guardians announced they’ve promoted first baseman Ralphy Velazquez (ranked

DETROIT -- Shawn Armstrong spent his time during games at Progressive Field the past few weeks inside the Guardians’ bullpen. It was familiar territory for the veteran reliever, albeit under different circumstances. Armstrong had been on the 15-day IL since April 26 with a right groin strain, but he wanted

CLEVELAND -- On afternoons like Sunday, you can really envision the possibilities and dream about the potential of Guardians hitters who are growing up before our eyes.
