Josh Naylor

CLE First Baseman #22

Josh Naylor is back in the Guardians lineup for Friday’s game against the Dodgers.

Naylor got Wednesday off after leaving Tuesday’s game with back spasms. He’s playing first base tonight.
Jose Ramirez

CLE Third Baseman #11

José Ramírez went 1-for-4 with an RBI and was caught stealing on Wednesday against the Royals.

Cleveland’s offense was once again ice cold in this one as it’s been for seemingly two straight months now. Ramírez got them on the board with an RBI single in the third inning and was then thrown out trying to steal second. The Guardians only had three base runners the rest of the game and two were erased by double plays. It’s a marvel Ramírez already has 106 RBI and 101 runs scored with this poor of a supporting cast around him.
Ben Lively

CLE Starting Pitcher #39

Ben Lively allowed seven hits and four runs with three strikeouts over four innings of work in a loss to the Royals on Wednesday.

Lively was cruising until the Royals hit three straight singles to start the fourth inning. He almost wriggled out of the jam before Tommy Pham belted a three-run homer to break this game open and effectively end Lively’s night. His command fell by the wayside as that inning went on, but Lively’s velocity was up nearly two ticks across the board. He’s scheduled for an enticing two-start week starting next Monday against the White Sox and then the Rays.
Josh Naylor

CLE First Baseman #22

Josh Naylor (back) is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday’s bout against the Royals.

Naylor will get a day off even with a righty in the mound, as he had to be removed from Tuesday’s game with back spasms. Kyle Manzardo will get the start at first base while David Fry is the designated hitter. Naylor should be considered day-to-day.
Steven Kwan

CLE Center Fielder #38

Steven Kwan drove in two runs in a blowout win Tuesday over the Royals.

Kwan cemented the blowout with a two-run single in the eighth. The outfielder has now driven in 43 runs while hitting at the top of the Cleveland lineup with a slash of .294/.359/.429. It’s certainly not a bad slash, but it pales in comparison to what he was doing before his dreadful August (.207/.313/.297 in 111 at-bats).
Kyle Manzardo

CLE First Baseman #9

Kyle Manzardo went 3-for-4 with a double in a win over the Royals on Tuesday.

The other two hits were singles for Manzardo. The rookie 24-year-old has picked up multi-hit efforts in two of his three games since being promoted by the Guardians on Sunday after having all of one of those games in his previous time with the Guardians. Manzardo is widely regarded as one of the better pure hitting prospects in baseball, and Tuesday was an example of what he’s potentially capable of.
Brayan Rocchio

CLE Shortstop #4

Brayan Rocchio drove in four runs and homered in a 7-1 win for the Guardians on Tuesday over the Royals.

Rocchio only had one official at-bat, but that one at-bat saw him hit a two-run homer that extended Cleveland’s lead to 4-1. Earlier in the game he drove in a run with a sac fly, and another RBI came on a bases-loaded walk. Rocchio has seven homers on the year, 31 RBI and a .211/.298/.319 slash.
Tanner Bibee

CLE Starting Pitcher #28

Tanner Bibee allowed a run over six innings with six strikeouts in a win over the Royals on Tuesday.

Bibbee did walk three, but he worked around those free passes and just two hits allowed in a strong outing against the talented KC lineup. It’s a much better outing than his last time against the Royals when he was charged for five runs over five innings, and nice to see after he had given up nine runs over his previous two starts. Bibee will try and keep this going and has a great chance against the White Sox on Monday.
Josh Naylor

CLE First Baseman #22

Josh Naylor went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a stolen base against the Royals on Monday.

Naylor’s home run was his 29th and the stolen base was his sixth. He hit a two-run shot off Kris Bubic in the sixth inning. Naylor has six home runs and 23 RBI in his last 28 games. He’s hitting .245 with an .800 OPS and 100 RBI on the year. While his power has carried over from last year, his average is down significantly after he hit .308 last year.
Lane Thomas

CLE Center Fielder #8

Lane Thomas went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a stolen base against the Royals on Monday.

The home run was Thomas’ ninth of the season and the stolen base was his 32nd. He hit a two-run shot off Michael Wacha in the fifth inning. It was Thomas’ first home run in 30 games with the Guardians. He also had a three-hit game on Sunday so maybe it’s starting to turn for Thomas at the plate. He’s hitting .239 with a .695 OPS and 46 RBI this year.
