Who Will Play Second Base for the Guardians in 2025?

The Guardians just traded their starting second baseman - who’s next in line?

As we process platinum glove-winning Andres Gimenez’s departure for Toronto, let’s take a look at the handful of possibilities who may take number 0’s place in the Cleveland lineup and infield in 2025:

1. Juan Brito, Switch-hitting 23 year-old, Triple-A INF/OF

Acquired in the Nolan Jones deal with Colorado, Brito put up a 113 wRC+ and 16.1/13.5 K/BB% at Columbus in 2025 in his age 22 season. He had a .187 ISO, hitting 21 home runs, flashing pulled-fly ball abilities with a 47% pull-rate and a fly ball rate around 40%.
