Latest news and updates about the Guardians
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 […]
Today’s expected roster move, Cade Horton to the IL and Riley Martin called up, has not been officially announced yet by the Cubs. When it is, I’ll have a separate post on the front page. Saturday notes… Cubs lineup: Guardians lineup: Shōta Imanaga, LHP vs. Slade Cecconi, RHP Shōta Imanaga’s first 2026 start wasn’t terrible… […]

The Cubs lost to the Guardians 4-1 Friday afternoon in Cleveland, but that’s not the big story of the day. That, of course, is the apparent injury to Cade Horton in the second inning. Here’s what happened [VIDEO]. Your browser does not support the video tag. It’s really hard to tell what actually went on […]

The Cubs will be part of their second home opener of 2026, after their own last Thursday, as Friday’s game will be the first 2026 game for the Guardians at Progressive Field. For more on the Guardians, here’s Quincy Wheeler, manager of the SB Nation Guardians site Covering The Corner. Hello Cubs fans! Welcome to […]
Funny thing about baseball. You usually don’t win the game when the other team scores more than you. After sweeping the Arizona Diamondbacks to start the season, the Dodgers lost two-of-three to the Cleveland Guardians. Most concerning at the moment is the lack of production from the offense. In Wednesday’s loss, the top six in […]
A pitcher with such a glaringly high walk rate as Gavin Williams had last season and in his first start is someone who’s playing with fire—while that may eventually prove costly, one only gets to that point if they have the quality stuff to back it up, and that showed as the Guardians beat the […]
The Dodgers play the final game of the first homestand of the 2026 season with their ace on the mound, Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Wednesday Game Info
It took two whole seasons for Shohei Ohtani to open the season in the starting rotation, and he showed on Tuesday that he is up for the challenge to post a fully healthy two-way season. Ohtani only went 1-3 with a pair of walks at the plate against the Cleveland Guardians in the Dodgers 4-1 […]
Yoshinobu Yamamoto will be the first Dodgers pitcher to make a second start in 2026, finishing off the six-game homestand on Wednesday evening against the Cleveland Guardians at Dodger Stadium. Yamamoto will be on five days rest after earning the win on opening day with six strikeouts in six innings, allowing only two runs to […]
Shohei Ohtani has his first two-way day of 2026. Tuesday game info
The middle game of the Los Angeles Dodgers’ series against the Cleveland Guardians will be the first pitching start for Shohei Ohtani, who coincidentally is the second in a series of Japanese pitchers. Roki Sasaki pitched in Monday night’s game, and Yoshinobu Yamamoto will pitch in Wednesday afternoon’s finale. Because of the World Baseball Classic, […]
Looking to keep their undefeated season alive, the Dodgers couldn’t get anything going until the ninth inning against the Cleveland Guardians as the offense fell mostly silent in a 4-2 defeat. Roki Sasaki made his first big league start since May of last year, looking to turn the page after a rough spring training where […]
The Dodgers are back after Sunday’s off day as they open up a three-game series against the Cleveland Guardians at home on Monday. Roki Sasaki makes his season debut against left-hander Parker Messick. MONDAY GAME INFO
