Cleveland Guardindians (2024 AL Central Champs)

Carrasco, Tyler Beede, Arias, Rocchio, Fry, and Freeman make the roster.


The pitching isn't surprising, but the infielders are. Assuming that Fry, Freeman, one of Arias/Rocchio, and Hedges make up the bench, that means one of Florial or De Los Santos are not making the roster, maybe both if Brennan makes the opening day roster as well.
Or perhaps they start the season with one less guy in the pen or there’s a trade expected? But unless such a trade involves Arias or Rocchio this roster is quite curious. Splitting time at SS and not giving either of them the chance to play every day seems designed to have them both fail.

Actually I have. But it appears something clicked/changed for him late last season and into winter ball. If that’s real……
Not an expert obviously but i suppose the combination of "broseph, you have to figure this out now" and some very different approach... Like he basically becomes a one pitch guy (and I think there's nothing wrong with that) where he's literally throwing, say, a cutter 80% of the time and another pitch good enough to show? (I mean those are just examples, not based on seeing the kid)
