| 3/31/25 | Guardians' Exciting Slugger Earns Astonishing Prediction. When the Cleveland Guardians traded away Josh Naylor during the offseason, many wondered how they were going to replace his production. Yes, they signed Carlos Santana, but that didn't appear to be enough, especially given Santana's age. A former top prospect, Manzardo has already logged a couple of home runs and six RBI through Cleveland's first three games, which comes on the heels of the designated hitter smashing five homers in 69 plate appearances last September.

It's not every year you see a team have as much success as Cleveland had only to trade away both starters on the right side of the infield (Josh Naylor and Andres Gimenez). Lets take a look at the roster we expect to see when the Guardians take the field in Kansas City for game 1 of the 2025 season. Source: https://www.wkyc.com/article/sports/mlb/cleveland-... |

| 3/25/25 | Arias, Jones figure heavily into Guardians plans after surprise playoff run. The Cleveland Guardians open the season Thursday in Kansas City with a few new faces in the field, after the team traded second baseman Andrés Giménez and first baseman Josh Naylor in the offseason.

Ideastream Public Media's sports commentator Terry Pluto says there are some questions surrounding the offseason moves. “I'm trying to just be more upbeat than I kind of am because I'm concerned on a couple of areas,” Pluto said.

| 3/21/25 | Guardians Scratch Slugger From Lineup for Precautionary Reasons. With Josh Naylor gone and David Fry's injury, Manzardo is going to get much more playing time and at-bats.

| 3/07/25 | Guardians Slugger Becoming a Problem With Troubling Trend. While starting pitching is certainly the biggest question mark for the Cleveland Guardians heading into the 2025 MLB season, their offense is another cause for concern. The Guardians struggled with offensive consistent last season, and that was with Josh Naylor in the lineup. Now, Naylor is gone, and Cleveland will have to find a way to replace the power somewhere. Perhaps the most prominent contender to have a breakout campaign in terms of home run power is outfielder Jhonkensy Noel, who smashed 13 homers over 198 plate appearances in 2024.

| 3/03/25 | Josh Naylor hilariously reveals one thing he still does every time he sees Terry Francona. The Cleveland Guardians found some success of late, reaching the playoffs in two of the last three seasons. The Guardians traded Josh Naylor to the Arizona Diamondbacks this offseason, moving on from a fun and productive player. Naylor, however, can get a little over excited at times. Former Guardians manager Terry Francona found this out the hard way, suffering a headbutt from Naylor after a walk-off, two-run bomb that beat the Minnesota Twins in the 10th inning back in 2022.

| 3/01/25 | Josh Naylor testing himself in 1st camp with Diamondbacks. Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Josh Naylor would be cool with starting the season now, although he is going to have to wait another four weeks until debuting at Chase Field. Naylor, an offseason trade acquisition and Arizona's answer at first base after Christian Walker's free agency departure, is acclimating with his new teammates while getting up to speed on alignments and concepts. “Not a lot of players on this team when it comes to like being flashy in a way, it's more to the grind and play hard, practice hard and let the results speak for themselves,” Naylor told Arizona Sports on Friday. Manager Torey Lovullo said he first could tell Naylor would fit in on Day 2 of camp when he dove for a ground ball during workouts on the backfields.

| 2/21/25 | Guardians Star Predicted to Achieve Massive Career Milestone. Last season, Ramirez smashed 39 homers for the second time in his career, finishing with a .279/.335/.537 slash line while adding 39 doubles and 118 RBI. "Those 39 home runs matched a career-high, and while losing Josh Naylor as protection in the lineup is a blow, Carlos Santana is a solid replacement and full seasons of Kyle Manzardo and Lane Thomas should give the lineup a further boost."
