The Guardians, who have traditionally finished spring training with exhibitions at Chase Field in late March in recent years, have a team led by All-Star third baseman Jose Ramirez and outfielder Steven Kwan. Stephen Vogt, formerly with the Diamondbacks as a player, manages the Guardians.

“This is the lefty that haunts their dreams,” Paul Hoynes declared bluntly on the latest Cleveland Baseball Talk Podcast. “No matter what team he pitches for, no matter what team he plays for, he always seems to face the Guardians and he always seems to come out one step ahead of them.”
