    • Continues power surge
      Ramirez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the White Sox on Thursday.

      Advice: Cleveland was held scoreless until Ramirez belted a 409-foot solo shot in the eighth inning. The All-Star third baseman has gone deep three times over his past five games, pushing his total to eight homers on the season. He's slashing just .238/.282/.450 but ranks fifth in the majors with 31 RBI while adding 25 runs and five stolen bases. Rotowire.com Today, 12:02 am
       
    • José Ramírez goes deep in loss to White Sox
      José Ramírez slugged a solo homer on Thursday in the Guardians’ loss to the White Sox.

      Advice: Ramírez and Josh Naylor went deep off veteran reliever John Brebbia in the eighth inning, but it wasn’t enough to spark Cleveland to a late rally at Guaranteed Rate Field. It was his eighth round-tripper of the season and third time he’s left the yard in his last five contests. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:04 pm
       
    • Nails down first save
      Sewald earned the save in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Reds, striking out two in a perfect ninth inning.

      Advice: After allowing a home run to Tyler Stephenson in his season debut, Sewald looked much better in his first save chance Thursday, striking out Will Benson and Stephenson to close out the one-run victory. The 33-year-old Sewald is expected to step back in as Arizona's primary closer after missing the first month of the season with an oblique injury. He recorded 34 saves last year while pitching to a 3.12 ERA in 60.2 innings between Arizona and Seattle. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:58 pm
       
    • Paul Sewald picks up first save against Reds
      Paul Sewald threw a scoreless inning to pick up a save Thursday against the Reds.

      Advice: Sewald has his first save of the season after missing the first month-plus of the season with an oblique strain. The right-hander looked good while picking up the save with two strikeouts, no hits allowed and 8-of-11 offerings landing for strikes. Sewald should see the bulk of save chances for Arizona now that he’s back healthy. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:29 pm
       
    • Guardians transfer Gavin Williams to 60-day IL
      Guardians transferred RHP Gavin Williams to the 60-day injured list.

      Advice: Nothing has changed with Williams from a return timetable standpoint as the procedural move merely clears up a spot on Cleveland’s 40-man roster for newly-acquired reliever Darren McCaughan. The 24-year-old righty has been on the shelf since spring training due to right elbow inflammation, but was able to resume a throwing program last week following a brief setback. There’s a chance he’s ready to return at some point next month. Rotoworld Yesterday, 11:53 am
       
    • Shifted to 60-day IL
      The Guardians transferred Williams (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Thursday.

      Advice: The move clears a spot on the team's 40-man roster for the addition of Darren McCaughan. Williams resumed a throwing program a week ago after a brief shutdown period following a setback with his right elbow. It was going to take him a while to get ramped back up anyway, though, so this transaction shouldn't alter his timetable. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:43 am
       
    • Taking seat Thursday
      Moreno is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game in Cincinnati.

      Advice: Moreno returned to action Wednesday after missing one game due to illness, but he'll begin Thursday's afternoon tilt on the bench. Tucker Barnhart will pick up the start at catcher. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:09 am
       
    • Not available Wednesday
      Sewald wasn't available to pitch Wednesday, when Joe Mantiply picked up the save in a 4-3 win over the Reds, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Fresh off a six-week stay on the injured list due to an oblique injury, Sewald returned Tuesday and threw 15 pitches in his season debut in a non-save situation. He was then bypassed for a save opportunity Wednesday, as manager Torey Lovullo stuck with Kevin Ginkel, then Mantiply after Ginkel allowed a walk and two singles. Lovullo is bringing Sewald back at a measured pace. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:01 am
       
    • Secures third victory
      Rodon (3-2) earned the win over Houston on Wednesday, allowing two runs on seven hits and no walks while striking out seven batters over 6.1 innings.

      Advice: Rodon gave up six earned runs over four frames versus the Orioles in his worst start of the campaign his last time out, but he bounced back with a strong showing Wednesday. The left-hander racked up 16 swinging strikes against the Astros, leading to his second-highest single-game strikeout total of the season. While Rodon's season ERA sits at a mediocre 3.56, that's largely due to the blowup outing against Baltimore. He has posted a 2.54 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 37:14 K:BB over 39 innings across his other seven starts. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:25 am
