The Cleveland Guardians traded Andres Gimenez so the question of who will play second base for them in 2025 is an open one as they enter Spring Training a month from now.
Below, I’ll examine the prominent options who seem set to compete for at-bats as the double-play partner for Brayan Rocchio in the season ahead.
The Safe Choice: Tyler Freeman
Freeman will turn 26 in May 2025, after being given a chance to claim a starting job in centerfield in 2024 and failing to do so. Freeman did not grade out well defensively in center and ended up with a very Andres Gimenez-like 84 wRC+ overall.
