    Brayan Rocchio is not in the Guardians’ starting lineup for Sunday afternoon’s tilt against the Yankees.

    It appears to be nothing more than a routine day off for the Guardians’ shortstop. Daniel Schneemann will start in his place and will bat seventh against White Sox’ southpaw Chris Murphy on Sunday in Cleveland.

    Gabriel Arias remains on the bench on Wednesday against the White Sox.

    Arias has now sat in two straight games after starting four of the previous five. The 26-year-old has gone just 4-for-22 since being activated off the 60-day IL with a 13/0 K/BB rate in five games. Daniel Schneemann will start at third base and bat seventh.

    Daniel Schneemann went 1-for-4 with a grand slam on Wednesday against the Brewers.

    The Guardians only pushed four runs across in this one and they all came via Schneemann’s grand slam. Otherwise, they did practically nothing with just one more hit for the rest of the game after Schneemann’s fourth inning blast. Nevertheless, it was Schneemann’s sixth home run of the season in a part-time role with an opportunity to seize playing time in the wake of José Ramírez’s injury.

    Guardians placed 3B José Ramírez on 10-day injured list with a fractured left hamate bone.

    The 33-year-old superstar suffered the unfortunate injury on a swing during Saturday’s game. He’s expected to miss at least a month’s worth of action and as we have often seen with hamate bone injuries, his power may be impacted upon his return. Gabriel Arias was activated from the injured list in a corresponding move and figures to share time with Daniel Schneemann at third base to cover for the loss of Ramírez.

    Daniel Schneemann went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer to power the Guardians to a 3-1 win over the Tigers.

    Schneemann entered the game as a pinch runner for the injured Chase DeLauter in the first inning. He took his first at-bat in the third, taking Tarik Skubal deep for a two-run blast that would ultimately turn out to be the deciding runs. The 24-year-old outfielder is hitting .263/.337/.408 with seven homers, 24 runs scored, and 34 RBI across 270 plate appearances.

    José Ramírez was diagnosed with a fractured left hamate bone and will go on the injured list.

    That’s always the fear when a player starts shaking his wrist after a swing. Ramírez tends to be a quick healer, but he will almost surely miss at least a month. The Guardians are about to get Gabriel Arias back and could put him in the mix along with Daniel Schneemann at third, but prospect Angel Genao could also be an option.

    Daniel Schneeman went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts against the Yankees on Wednesday.

    The left-handed-hitting Schneeman was in the lineup versus Carlos Rodón today because the Guardians can only platoon four of their five left-handed starters in any one game. Schneeman, though, probably shouldn’t be starting at this point. He’s hitting .153 with no homers and six RBI in 107 plate appearances since the beginning of May. He could be a candidate for demotion when Gabriel Arias comes off the injured list.

    Angel Martinez is not in the Guardians’ starting lineup for Friday night’s showdown against the Rangers.

    It appears to be nothing more than a routine night off for the 24-year-old outfielder. Daniel Schneemann will start in his place in center field and will bat sixth for the Guardians against Rangers’ right-hander Kumar Rocker.

    Rhys Hoskins is not in Cleveland’s starting lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Nationals.

    Daniel Schneeman will bat fifth and play center field in Hoskins’ absence, allowing a DH day for Chase DeLauter. We’d say this looks like a routine day off, but when you’re hitting .190/.338/.388 in 44 games lower on the defensive spectrum as a low-risk signing, your roster spot is obviously on shaky ground.

    Daniel Schneemann went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts against the Phillies on Saturday.

    Schneemann started playing a lot more than expected after a fast start, but he’s just 8-for-59 with two doubles and a .396 OPS in 17 games this month. Overexposure seems like an issue here; Schneemann’s versatility definitely makes him worth a roster spot, but he strikes out too often to be starting against every right-hander the Guardians face.
