11+ hour, 18+ min ago (974+ words) CLEVELAND, Ohio " While Jos" Ram'rez rightfully dominates headlines in Cleveland, there's another figure whose impact on the Guardians might be just as significant, despite operating largely behind the scenes: pitching coach Carl Willis. The Cleveland chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America recognized Willis's contributions by awarding him the Frank Gibbons/Steve Olin Good Guy Award, highlighting not just his accessibility to media, but his profound impact on the organization's renowned pitching development system. "The man speaks in quotes that make it really easy for reporters to write about and digest and learn about the art of pitching," explained Joe Noga, cleveland.com Guardians beat reporter, during a recent podcast. "And that's really one of the reasons why he was such an obvious choice for this award." But Willis's value extends far beyond his media friendliness. Under his guidance,…...

11+ hour, 22+ min ago (863+ words) CLEVELAND, Ohio " In a move that left many Cleveland baseball observers confused, the Guardians agreed to a $2 million deal with outfielder Nolan Jones ahead of Friday's non-tender deadline " a decision that directly contradicts their stated developmental philosophy and creates a puzzling outfield logjam heading into 2026. "They give him a $2 million deal for one year. He did not play well last season, to be frank," said Paul Hoynes of cleveland.com on a recent podcast. "It was a struggle for him from the start." The signing is particularly perplexing given the Guardians' crowded outfield situation. With prospects like George Valera and Chase DeLauter seemingly ready for extended major league opportunities, bringing back Jones " who struggled throughout 2025 " seems to run counter to Cleveland's typically prospect-friendly approach. Joe Noga of cleveland.com highlighted this contradiction: "For a front office that's constantly going back…...

11+ hour, 25+ min ago (419+ words) Rob Manfred said he does not expect any further restrictions after the league made changes to regulations surrounding prop bets Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred said on Wednesday that the MLB is "generally prepared to move forward" under current betting regulations after the league's authorized sportsbook partners announced restrictions on prop bets in baseball. Major sportsbooks announced earlier this month that they would impose a limit of $200 for wagering on individual pitches, while these bets will also be excluded from parlays. The action came after Cleveland Guardians duo Luis Ortiz and Emmanuel Clase were indicted over their alleged roles in a gambling scheme in which prosecutors argue the players rigged individual pitches. They were charged with crimes including wire fraud conspiracy, honest services wire fraud conspiracy and conspiracy to influence sporting contests by bribery, with both facing lifetime bans…...

12+ hour, 8+ min ago (426+ words) SAN FRANCISCO -- Every year, the Giants bring a select group of prospects to Oracle Park for their fall camp. The purpose of the program is to give young players a better understanding of what it takes to be a big leaguer. Participants spend a week training at Oracle Park, where they play catch, take batting practice, hit the weight room and soak up advice from guest speakers, including president of baseball operations Buster Posey. But the development opportunities aren't limited to the field. The fall camp is also meant to be an introduction to the city of San Francisco and the responsibility that comes with being part of the community. To drive that point home, the Giants recently started incorporating volunteer work into their annual programming. Last year, Giants prospects visited the San Francisco-Marin Food Bank, where they spent time…...

15+ hour, 30+ min ago (434+ words) In the minds of many New York Yankees fans, the New York Yankees print money. Their success is measured by rings, their failures by every dollar that didn't turn into one. Owner and managing partner Hal Steinbrenner's message on Monday wasn't exactly subtle. He pushed back against the idea that the Yankees live in permanent profit, calling the assumption unfair and inaccurate. He didn't break out spreadsheets or point-by-point breakdowns, but he didn't have to. He had made his point. The number he chose to highlight did the job: a hundred million dollars paid to the City of New York every February 1, even during the shutdowns and revenue collapses of the Covid season. Hal Steinbrenner said it is "not fair" to assume the Yankees make a profit. "I don't want to get into it, but that's not a fair statement…...
