Guardians drop split-squad games to Giants and Cubs as Tanner Bibee, Logan Allen make spring debuts Logan Allen tossed two scoreless innings, Tanner Bibee allowed a two-run home run as both pitchers made their spring debuts.
Injuries Creating Opportunities In Guardians Bullpen James Karinchak and Trevor Stephan’s injuries are forcing the Cleveland Guardians to look elsewhere for bullpen help.

Andrés Giménez - Not clicking at plate yet Gimenez has gone 1-for-11 over his first four Cactus League games.
Impact Gimenez also has two strikeouts and no walks. The second baseman is not in danger of losing his starting role -- Gabriel Arias and Brayan Rocchio are competing for the shortstop job, and most of the other major-league ready infielders in camp are likely to be utility options. Gimenez hit an okay .251 with 15 home runs, 62 RBI, 76 runs scored and 30 stolen bases over 153 contests last year. His OPS dropped from .837 in 2022 to .713 last year, but at 25 years old, a rebound campaign is plausible.

Steven Kwan - Lock for starting role Kwan is 3-for-11 over his first four Cactus League games.
Impact Kwan is about the only sure thing in the Guardians' outfield this spring, as he should be a lock to start in left field. His second big-league season was a little worse than his rookie year -- he slashed .268/.340/.370 in 2023. Kwan is a contact-over-power hitter with a good eye at the plate (9.9 percent walk rate, 10.4 percent strikeout rate in 2023). He should also offer a speed threat after going 40-for-48 on the basepaths over his first two campaigns.

Emmanuel Clase - Still among top closers Clase has allowed two hits and struck out four batters over his first two Cactus League appearances.
Impact Clase saved 44 of his 56 opportunities last season, and while it wasn't the dominance he displayed in the previous two years, he was never at risk of losing ninth-inning duties. Clase should continue in the closer role this season. James Karinchak (shoulder) and Trevor Stephan (elbow) are already banged up in the spring, leaving Scott Barlow as the Guardians' top option for saves when Clase is unavailable.

Logan Allen - Set for spring debut Sunday Allen (shoulder) is set to pitch in a split squad game Sunday, Covering The Corner reports.
Impact Allen had his 2023 season end a few days early in late September with left shoulder inflammation, but he looks ready for his spring training debut. Allen had a a 3.81 ERA and 1.40 WHIP alongside 119 strikeouts across 125.1 innings as a rookie last season.

Gavin Williams - Shows well in spring debut Williams struck out four and walked over over two hitless innings versus the Angels on Thursday.
Impact Thursday was Williams' Cactus League debut, and it couldn't have gone much better. The right-hander burst into the majors in 2023 with a 3.29 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 81:37 K:BB over 82 innings across 16 starts last season. His 4.04 FIP suggests he was a little lucky, but at 24 years old, he's still got room to grow. Williams should be considered a favorite to begin 2024 in the Guardians' rotation.

Joey Cantillo - Shaky command Wednesday Cantillo allowed a run on a hit and a walk over two innings in Wednesday's Cactus League start versus the Diamondbacks.
Impact Cantillo pitched a clean first inning, but a walk, two wild pitches and a double led to Arizona's first run in the second. It's encouraging to see Cantillo work as a starter this spring, but with just over half a season of experience at the Triple-A level (4.64 ERA, 1.52 WHIP, 111:55 K:BB), it's fairly likely the 24-year-old will need more time with Columbus this season. Logan Allen (shoulder) has yet to make his spring debut, but the Guardians have veteran Carlos Carrasco in camp on an NRI, so Cantillo doesn't have a clear path to the No. 5 spot in the rotation.
