Impact Walters suffered the injury during the ninth inning of Friday's game against the Angels. He'll undergo an MRI on Saturday to determine the severity of the injury, but the 24-year-old reliever could be facing a lengthy stint on the IL. Nic Enright was recalled from Triple-A Columbus in a corresponding move.

Removed with injury Walters was removed from Friday's game with what appeared to an injury in the area of his shoulder, arm and back, MLB.com reports.

Impact Walters grabbed at the area in obvious pain following a pitch in the ninth inning and was immediately removed. The right-hander will undergo an MRI on Saturday, and manager Stephen Vogt described the injury was "not good" following the game.

Joining 26-man roster The Guardians recalled Walters from Triple-A Columbus on Wednesday.

Impact Walters will make his 2025 MLB debut when he gets into a game. The 24-year-old has appeared in 12 games with Columbus this season, logging a 1.50 ERA and 23.9 K:BB over 12 innings. Nic Enright was optioned to Columbus in a corresponding move.

Returns from IL Walters (undisclosed) was reinstated from Triple-A Columbus' 7-day injured list and returned to action Saturday, walking one batter over a scoreless inning of relief.

Impact Walters hadn't pitched for Louisville since April 16 due to an unspecified injury but was cleared to rejoin the Guardians' top affiliate without requiring a rehab assignment beforehand. The righty reliever spotted 13 of his 18 pitches for strikes in the appearance and averaged 96.9 miles per hour with his fastball.

Shelved at Triple-A Triple-A Columbus placed Walters on its 7-day injured list Monday due to an unspecified injury.

Impact After failing to win a spot in the Guardians' Opening Day bullpen coming out of spring training, Walters had gotten off to a strong start to the season with Columbus, producing a 1.35 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 13:5 K:BB in 6.2 innings over seven appearances. However, the right-hander sustained an apparent injury during his most recent appearance Wednesday, temporarily halting any momentum he might have built for a promotion to the big leagues.

Sent to Triple-A The Guardians optioned Walters (shoulder) to Triple-A Columbus on Monday, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

Impact After retiring just one batter and giving up three earned runs in his Cactus League debut Feb. 24, Walters was shut down for a brief period of time due to right shoulder stiffness. Walters was cleared to return to action March 15 and gave up one earned run on three hits and two walks over 2.2 innings across his final three appearances of the spring, but the missed time along with the fact that he had minor-league options remaining likely worked against him in his bid for the Opening Day roster. If he's able to get off to good start to the season at Triple-A, Walters should be in the mix for an early call-up, as he excelled in his first taste of the majors in 2024. The young righty allowed just six baserunners over 8.2 innings during the regular season and then held opposing batters to a .111 average over three postseason appearances.

Facing hitters Walters (shoulder) threw live batting practice Wednesday.

Impact Walters has been out with shoulder stiffness since late February, but he seems to be making progress in his recovery after throwing a bullpen session Sunday and now progressing to live hitters. That being said, there's still no telling if he'll be ready for Opening Day.

Battling stiff shoulder Walters is returning from right shoulder stiffness and threw a bullpen session Sunday, SI.com reports.

Impact Walters was shut down after giving up three runs over one-third of an inning during his spring debut Feb. 24, but he's been cleared to resume mound work. The right-hander delivered 8.2 scoreless frames in his first taste of the majors last season, but it's unclear if he'll be past the shoulder issue in time for Opening Day.

Tosses 1.2 scoreless as opener Walters tossed 1.2 scoreless innings and did not factor into the decision in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Guardians.

Impact Walters served as the opener in a bullpen game and retired all five batters he faced while throwing 13 of 20 pitches for strikes. The 23-year-old has not surrendered a hit or earned run through his first 7.2 major-league innings while posting a 6:4 K:BB.

Opening Wednesday's game Walters will serve as the Guardians' opening pitcher in Wednesday's contest versus the Reds, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Guardians are altering their final-week pitching plans after locking up a first-round bye. Walters will open what's expected to be a bullpen game in the series finale Wednesday, with Joey Cantillo pushed back to Friday against the Astros.

Picks up first win Walters (1-0) struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the win in Monday's 4-3 win over the Twins.

Impact Walters has given up just one unearned run and posted a 2:1 K:BB over his first three innings in the majors. The 23-year-old surged through the Guardians' minor-league system after being selected 62nd overall in the 2023 First-Year Player Draft, logging just 50.1 innings in the minors. He's in the majors for bullpen depth currently, though this will also serve as a first audition for him to potentially be a part of Cleveland's relief corps in 2025.
