Latest news and updates about the Guardians
Things we predicted in the preview: a José Ramírez homer, and the Guardians fighting hard to even up the series. Both things would come to pass as the Braves were shut out for the first time this season, 6-0. The Guardians put together a more complete performance on all fronts. Braves pitching issued a season-high […]
Martín Pérez will lead the Braves against Parker Messick and the Guardians in the first City Connect Saturday of 2026.

Ahead of Game 2 of the Braves-Guardians series Saturday, manager Walt Weiss provided a few injury updates about the roster.

The NL East leading Atlanta Braves have announced some joyous news before Saturday night’s home game versus the Cleveland Guardians. I didn’t know Michael was anticipating, which makes me even more excited. Michael Harris will go on the paternity list. Infielder slash part time outfielder slash emergency late inning reliever Luke Williams will join the […]
Worcester: W, 8-5 (BOX SCORE) Jake Bennett pitched a really solid game, going into the sixth, keeping his ERA under 1 despite allowing his first earned run of the season, striking four out and allowing just two hits. But, that wasn’t the real story on Friday night against Columbus (Guardians AAA). Tsung-Che Cheng started his […]
As the Braves debuted their blue City Connect 2.0 jerseys, they hoped for more quality innings from Bryce Elder in the first game of a homestand against the Guardians. Elder walked Jose Ramirez in the first, but struck the next batter out to start the game with a scoreless frame. Ronald Acuna nearly made my […]

The Dodgers are undefeated against the National League this season, and that will remain true through at least Sunday. A big part of that is their early schedule being heavily front-loaded with American League teams. Their first homestand included hosting the Cleveland Guardians, and they just completed a World Series rematch against the Blue Jays […]
The Atlanta Braves return to Truist Park and kick off the weekend with a three-game set against the Cleveland Guardians. The Braves enter play with an 8-5 record and are coming off a series win in Anaheim, where the run column was high, and emotions even higher. The Guardians come to town with the same […]
It was a disaster all around yesterday for the Royals, but some speculation states that the Guardians might’ve been stealing signs from the Royals. Cleveland broke open the game when Ángel Martínez hit a grand slam in the eighth inning off Steven Cruz. Rocchio was on second base and seemed to steal the Royals’ signs. […]
The rubber match of the first Cleveland series of the year will be played at noon like yesterday’s game. The difference is that they are not trying to have the sun help with the frigid temperatures, it is just when the game was scheduled to be, and it will be relatively balmy with much of […]
The reigning World Series MVP took the mound in Toronto on Tuesday for the first time since that fateful Game 7 of the 2025 World Series. Yoshinobu Yamamoto bounced back after being dealt a loss in his start against the Cleveland Guardians by tossing six innings of one-run ball while striking out six against the […]
In the second inning, Rookie of the Year candidate Carter Jensen crushed a belt-high cutter to the empty right field bleachers for a line drive home run. The homer was Jensen’s third of the year, and put the Royals ahead 1-0 against their divisional rivals, the Guardians. But that hit turned out to be the […]
It’s my first regular season gamethread of the year. We’ve made it! Last week’s Tuesday was an off day, so it’s the first Tuesday game of the year. Honored to be back. Now, we will all be watching this one from the comfort of our homes and, let’s be honest, offices. But if you made […]
For such a cold environment for a baseball game, the Royals hitters sure seemed red-hot today. I realize that’s not something you usually say after a simple 4-2 victory, but there was a ton of loud contact. Carter Jensen’s home run in the sixth inning was a 111mph scorching line drive that just barely cleared […]
After losing 2 of 3 against the Brewers, the Royals now take a short road trip to Cleveland early this week before returning home to face the White Sox later this week. The weather will be pretty cold in Cleveland for this series, so they’ve already moved tomorrow’s game up in time to be during […]
Go get ‘em, Shōta.
During the Marquee Sports Network broadcast of the Cubs’ 1-o win over the Guardians in Game 1 of Sunday’s doubleheader, Jim Deshaies referred to it as the headline reads: “a throwback from 1968.” That year was known as “The Year of The Pitcher,” with runs down all across MLB. The Cubs won four games by […]
Go get ‘em, Edward.
Today’s roster moves: Here I had not remembered a traditional, non-split doubleheader on the road for the Cubs in recent years. The last such doubleheader at Wrigley Field was Thursday, Aug. 3, 2006 vs. the Diamondbacks. So, naturally, I asked BCB’s JohnW53 if he knew. Of course he did! Here’s the answer. The Cubs have […]

If you were hoping to see a Cubs game tonight… you won’t: This is the same storm front that stopped the Cardinals/Tigers game in Detroit this afternoon after eight innings. As of the time of this post, neither team had officially announced any starters for either game, though I would assume Shōta Imanaga and Edward […]
