It’s been a unique, winding road for Tyler Freeman. Drafted out of high school by Cleveland in the second round of 2017, the soon-to-be 25 year old has finally found a sticking spot after years of grinding his way up the ranks within the organization, but not where he ever anticipated.
Tyler Freeman has played in 38 games this season for the Guardians, who are 27-17 overall, and 36 of them have come in the same position for the career middle infielder: center field.
Coming into the 2024 season, centerfield had been a sore spot within the Guardians’ organization for years.
