Examining the Guardians’ 40-Man Roster Moves

The Guardians removed three players from their roster and added four on Tuesday night - let’s take a look at why these moves were made.

Be sure to check out Zach's preview of these selections from yesterday with plenty of useful info fun to read in hindsight now.

First, pitchers Peter Strzelecki, Connor Gillispie and outfielder George Valera were designated for assignment. Both pitchers were touched by the Guardians’ pitching magic dust, as Strzelecki had a 2.31 ERA and Gillispie had a 2.25 ERA, but both had a good bit of luck involved in that outcome (with Gillispie not giving up a home run at the major league level and not getting hurt by a high walk-rate, and Strzelecki stranding runners at an unsustainable 90% rate).
