URGENT UPDATE: The Cleveland Guardians have made a key roster move just before their series finale against the Atlanta Braves on August 20, 2023. The team has recalled left-hander Tim Herrin and optioned fellow lefty Joey Cantillo to Triple-A Columbus.
This decision comes as the Guardians (63-59) are in the thick of the race for an American League wild-card spot, making every game crucial.

Meanwhile, Joey Cantillo, 25, who has a record of 3-3 and a 3.93 ERA in 29 games, has been a key player as well. He started eight games, including five in the past month, but will now look to regain form in the minors.
The Guardians are under pressure to secure wins as they navigate a tightly contested playoff race. Fans will be watching closely to see how Herrin’s return impacts the team’s performance against the Braves today.
