Messick ‘asserted himself’ after near no-hitter

Rotoworld Player News

Cade Smith

CLE Relief Pitcher #36

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Cade Smith allowed one earned run and two hits over one inning to pick up the save on Friday against the Twins.

Smith allowed the first two batters he faced to reach base, with the lone run he allowed coming on a double play ball by Ryan Jeffers. He would retire Josh Bell on a strikeout to end things, notching his 11th save of the season and his fourth for the month of May. Despite the shaky frame, Smith remains one of the top options at closer in fantasy.
Travis Bazzana

CLE 2nd Baseman #87

Travis Bazzana went 1-for-4 with a homer, two RBI, and two runs scored in Friday’s win over the Twins.

Bazzana took Twins starter Connor Prielipp 446 feet to deep center for his first career homer to give the Guardians an early 4-0 lead. In addition to his homer, Bazzana also swiped two more bases in this one, pushing his stolen base total to six in nine games. He’s not tearing the cover off the ball by any means, but Bazzana has hit safely in five of his last seven games and is slashing .250/.400/.375 over that span. He remains a solid option in mixed leagues as his bat continues to heat up.
Parker Messick

CLE Starting Pitcher #77

Parker Messick allowed one earned run over 5 2/3 innings while striking out seven to pick up the win on Friday against the Twins.

It was another solid outing for Messick, who has now allowed one earned run or fewer in five of his eight outings this season. Messick was pulled with two outs in the sixth inning after allowing five of the six batters he faced to reach base, which included an RBI single by Ryan Jeffers to give the Twins their first run of the night. Of the seven hits Messick allowed on Friday, five came in his final inning of work, as he did his part to limit baserunners for much of the evening. Now boasting a 2.30 ERA and a 0.98 WHIP, Messick will look to stay hot in his next start, which is set for Wednesday against the Angels.
Gabriel Arias

CLE Shortstop #13

Guardians’ skipper Stephen Vogt told reporters on Friday that Gabriel Arias (hamstring) has “hit a little snag” in his recovery from a left hamstring strain.

It’s unclear exactly what that entails, but Vogt noted that Arias is going to be sidelined a bit longer than his original estimate of 4-to-8 weeks. The 26-year-old infielder has been shelved since April 9.
Jaison Chourio

CLE Center Fielder #88

Jaison Chourio has gone on the IL in Double-A due to a strained right hamstring.

The 20-year-old Chourio had just arrived in Double-A, going 0-for-6 in two games following his promotion Sunday. He hit .321/.433/.487 with 10 steals in 21 games for High-A Lake County previously.
Franco Aleman

CLE Relief Pitcher #92

Guardians recalled RHP Franco Aleman from Triple-A Columbus.

Aleman had yet to allow an earned run and had struck out 18 in 12 innings as a reliever at Columbus. The 2021 10th-round pick out of Florida will be making his major league debut.
Connor Brogdon

CLE Relief Pitcher #75

Guardians designated RHP Connor Brogdon for assignment.

With his velocity down a bit from last year, Brogdon had given up five homers in 15 1/3 innings, leaving him with a 5.28 ERA. Still, since he’s making only $900,000 on his deal with the Guardians, someone might pick him up off waivers.
Bo Naylor

CLE Catcher #23

Bo Naylor went 2-for-5 with a three-run homer in the Guardians’ 8-5 defeat of the Royals on Thursday.

Naylor’s homer to seemingly put the game away in the seventh — it made the score 8-2 before the Royals were able bring it back to within three — was just his second of the year. It upped his RBI total from four to seven. Naylor actually has a greatly improved contact rate with pretty solid exit velocity numbers this year, but it’s produced only a .143/.200/.238 line in 90 plate appearances. One imagines he’s due for a run of good luck.
Slade Cecconi

CLE Starting Pitcher #44

Slade Cecconi improved to 2-4 after holding the Royals to two runs in 5 1/3 innings on Thursday.

Cecconi got the job done, but with three strikeouts and three walks, he was far from dominant. The 26-year-old has completed six innings just once this year, and he’s given up eight homers in 41 innings. He might wind up bumped to the pen at some point, but he’ll surely stay in the rotation for now and face the Angels next time out.
Cade Smith

CLE Relief Pitcher #36

Cade Smith fanned two in a perfect ninth for his 10th save Thursday against the Royals.

Smith has converted seven chances in a row. He’ll likely be down Friday after working the last two days. Hunter Gaddis and Eric Sabrowski also toiled last night and today, so maybe Matt Festa could sneak in a save chance. Sabrowski, though, might be available after facing just one hitter to finish the eighth today.
