Guardians optioned RHP Franco Aleman to Triple-A Columbus.

Following a nice stretch 10-appearance stretch after his recall, Aleman gave up four runs while getting just two outs in his last two outings. He still had a 3.77 ERA overall, but he’ll head to Triple-A for now to help make room for Foster Griffin and Craig Yoho.

Franco Aleman struck out five in two perfect innings out of the pen against the Reds in the first game of Tuesday’s doubleheader.

Since rejoining the Guardians on July 3 for his second big-league stint, the 26-year-old Aleman has allowed one run and struck out 15 in 11 innings out of the pen. The Guardians didn’t really need another breakout reliever, but they certainly won’t turn it down.

Guardians optioned RHPs Daniel Espino and Franco Aleman to Triple-A Columbus; Reassigned LHP Ryan Webb and OF Alfonsin Rosario to minor league camp.

Espino impressed during Cactus League play, but there was never going to be a spot available for him in the Guardians’ Opening Day rotation barring injury. He’ll work out of the rotation at Triple-A Columbus to start the season and should be one of the first names to get the call when someone hits the injured list or the Guardians need a spot starter.
