There’s a Bryan Shaw-sized hole in the Guardians’ bullpen and Tito is going to be testing out relief arms as well as potential cribbage partners this spring.
The Guardians bullpen is mostly set — I expect returns from Sam Hentges, Eli Morgan, Enyel De Los Santos, Trevor Stephan, James Karinchak, and, of course, Emmanuel Clase. If Nick Sandlin is healthy, he should be a lock, as well.
This still leaves a final spot to be decided (barring any injuries), so let’s take a look at the likely candidates.
On the 40-man roster
