e Spring Training.

As the offseason progresses, the Guardians have an opportunity to strengthen their roster, but they must act quickly to secure the necessary arms before the market becomes limited. With several question marks surrounding their pitching staff, fans are eager to see how the organization responds to these challenges.

The Cleveland Guardians are actively reshaping their roster this MLB offseason, but the moves have raised eyebrows among fans. Key departures include second baseman Andres Gimenez and All-Star first baseman Josh Naylor, both of whom were traded away. The only significant free-agent transaction has been the retention of pitcher Shane Bieber, while Naylor's position has been filled by Carlos Santana. This strategy has left many wondering about the team's direction and overall competitiveness.

Despite acquiring pitcher Luis Ortiz from the Pittsburgh Pirates in a deal involving Gimenez, the Guardians still face significant gaps, particularly in their starting rotation. In 2024, the Guardians struggled with pitching, and Mandy Bell of MLB.com points out that the team must address this issue before the 2025 season kicks off. The rotation is currently uncertain, with Bieber recovering from Tommy John surgery and Ortiz lacking extensive starting experience. Young prospects Joey Cantillo and Doug Nikhazy are potential options, but the team may need to bolster its pitching staff further before Spring Training.
