4/23/25 Guardians' All-Star closer dealing with shoulder discomfort, availability unclear. Following Tuesday's comeback win against the Yankees that saw Cade Smith step in for All-Star closer Emmanuel Clase for the second straight night, Guardians manager Stephen Vogt was asked whether or not Clase was healthy. An All-MLB first-team performer and American League Cy Young finalist in 2024, Clase had appeared in three consecutive games, throwing 30 pitches and suffering his second blown save of the season on Sunday in Pittsburgh, and Vogt said after Tuesday's game that the club wanted to give him two days off. Asked whether or not reporters should read anything into Smith saving two straight for Cleveland, Vogt responded: “No, not at all.”

10/13/24 Winningest Farm Systems In 2024: Detroit Tigers, Cleveland Guardians.

8/05/24 Guardians Reliever Deserves Rookie Of The Year Consideration. The 2024 Rookie of the Year race is heating up as the final stretch of the season approaches. Plenty of incredible first-year players have appeared this season, and the Cleveland Guardians certainly have one of the best rookies in the game. Cade Smith may not be a household name among baseball fans yet, and he may not even be the best reliever in his own bullpen (which is saying something on its own), but the 25-year-old is more than deserving of AL Rookie of the Year consideration. Smith has pitched in 51 games (53.1 innings) heading into Monday night's matchup.
