News and Notes for Friday, June 13th, 2025
The Guardians begin a nine-game road trip tonight through the West Coast, beginning in Seattle, then San Francisco, and finally in Sacramento.
Austin Hedges will be activated as Dom Nunez was returned to Columbus yesterday.
Jhonkensy Noel hit two home runs in Columbus yesterday, reminding us all how bad Triple-A pitching is. So, I guess it is anyone’s guess who is good down there. Hopefully, Chase DeLauter. Juan Brito began his rehab in Arizona yesterday so the clock starts ticking for him to earn a promotion. I am unsure how much his power will be affected this season by the hand injury he sustained.
Zack Meisel of the Athletic offered a Guardians trivia piece.
Don’t forget to vote for Guardians for the All-Star game. Seems to me that Jose Ramirez, Daniel Schneemann, Carlos Santana and Steven Kwan are all worthy of a vote.
AROUND MLB:
The Tigers won again, but the Twins and Royals lost.
