A shocking trade proposal from Ryan Shea of Sports Illustrated sends the Guardians’ All-Star closer, Emmanuel Clase, to the New York Yankees in exchange for a trio of prospects.

WASHINGTON — Terry Francona did not make the decision to change Cleveland’s franchise name to the Guardians, and he’s no longer their manager, and will be half a state removed from any thoughts of revising it.

Baltimore’s Ryan O’Hearn, with two out in the third, sent a grounder to third baseman Jose Ramirez. Santana tried to scoop Ramirez’s throw, but it hit his glove and fell out. Former Guardian Ramon Laureano, the next batter, added an extra sting to the error by homering off Tanner Bibee for a 5-3 lead.

The Cleveland Guardians have been linked to a lot of trade rumors centered around Gold Glove outfielder Steven Kwan, but it seems quite unlikely.

The Guardians were knocking on the door all night. The home team in red had every opportunity to break the door down in their eventual 10-5 victory over the Orioles. Inning after inning, Cleveland just couldn't deliver with runners in scoring position.
