The latter puts him in elite company—<a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/yankees-news-paul-goldschmidt-about-how-hes-hurting-ny">just five active players have reached the 400-double mark</a>: Paul Goldschmidt, Andrew McCutchen, Freddie Freeman, Jose Altuve, and now Arenado.</p><p>“To be amongst those guys, it’s an amazing feeling, because they are some of the best in this game and some of the best to ever play,” Arenado said postgame. “It’s an honor to be up there with my boy [Goldschmidt], because he’s like a big brother.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Having notched the 1,900th career hit of his career earlier today, <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/STLCards?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#STLCards</a> star 3B Nolan Arenado just registered his 400th career double (plus an E9). He joins Paul Goldschmidt, Andrew McCutchen, Freddie Freeman and Jose Altuve and the only active players with 400 doubles. <a href="https://t.co/mpry9Dowy8">pic.twitter.com/mpry9Dowy8</a></p><p>— John Denton (@JohnDenton555) <a href="https://twitter.com/JohnDenton555/status/1939377914396451216?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 29, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Arenado’s double came on a line drive down the right-field line. Guardians right fielder Johnathan Rodríguez misplayed the ball, allowing Arenado to reach third on an error. The milestone was one more highlight in a stellar day for the Cardinals, who completed a three-game sweep of the Guardians and secured their 10th win in their last 13 contests.</p><h2><b>Nolan Arenado leaves early in Cardinals-Guardians contest</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Nolan-Arenado-2.jpg"><figcaption>Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>But the celebratory moment was briefly soured when Arenado exited in the eighth inning due to swelling in his right index finger. He appeared to jam it during an awkward stumble at first base earlier in the game. Despite the scare, Arenado remained optimistic.</p><p>“[The index finger] is a little swollen, and it’s kind of random,” he explained. “It’s OK now after we did some treatment. But it did get stiff as the game went on.”</p><p>He joked about the injury, blaming it on his lack of speed: “I think I misstepped a little early. I’m a little slow, and I try to get the front of the bag because that’s my only chance [of being safe] and I almost missed [first base].”</p><p>The eight-time All-Star raised his batting average to .249 with two hits in the win, continuing to contribute in what’s been a steady, if not flashy, season. While his slugging may not be at MVP levels, his leadership and consistent production remain vital to a Cardinals team surging back into postseason contention.</p><p>With a crucial stretch ahead—starting with a three-game set against the Pirates and a key weekend series in Chicago against the Cubs—St. Louis will hope Arenado avoids the injured list and can keep adding to his already Hall-of-Fame-worthy résumé.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The Cleveland Guardians’ <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/guardians-news-massive-jose-ramirez-injury-update-cardinals-clash">shortstop was carted off the field in the third inning</a> against the St. Louis Cardinals after suffering a left ankle injury while attempting to make a difficult play. Arias appeared to <a href="https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/45609301/guardians-gabriel-arias-carted-field-left-leg-injury" rel="noopener">catch his spike in the grass</a> as he tried to field a ground ball hit by Masyn Winn deep in the shortstop hole, rolling his ankle awkwardly in the process.</p><p>Progressive Field went quiet as the 25-year-old immediately reached for his lower leg, clearly in significant pain. Cleveland’s training staff quickly rushed out to attend to him. Arias stayed down for several minutes, was fitted with an immobilizer, and was eventually helped onto a cart and driven off the field. The team later announced he had suffered a left ankle sprain and that X-rays came back negative. Arias will undergo an MRI on Monday to determine the extent of the damage.</p><p>The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/guardians-news-jose-ramirez-concerning-injury-update-blue-jays-scuffle">injury is a gut punch for a Guardians team</a> that has already battled its share of adversity and now faces the potential loss of one of their most valuable infielders.</p><h2><b>Guardians fans holding their breath after Gabriel Aries goes down with injury</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Gabriel-Arias.jpg"><figcaption>© Ken Blaze-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Arias, in his first full season as a starter, had taken over as the team’s everyday shortstop after Brayan Rocchio was sent to Triple-A in May. He entered Sunday’s contest slashing .231/.293/.369 with six home runs, 17 doubles, and 31 RBIs across 77 games — all career bests. Just one day prior, he went 2-for-4 with a homer and a pair of RBIs, highlighting the offensive surge that had helped solidify his spot in the lineup.</p><p>But it’s not just Arias’ bat that’s been important to Cleveland. His glove has been elite. He ranks in the 87th percentile in outs above average and boasts arm strength in the 92nd percentile, making him one of the most reliable defenders at shortstop in the league.</p><p>His defensive value was on display even during the unfortunate play. Arias’ effort to make the stop was textbook hustle, but the awkward slide ended in what looked to be a potentially serious setback.</p><p>Daniel Schneemann entered the game at shortstop and finished things out in Arias’ place. While Schneemann has shown promise, the Guardians will miss the stability and two-way impact Arias brings — especially in a tightly contested AL Central.</p><p>With the Guardians set to head back on the road after the homestand, they’ll now do so without one of their brightest contributors. The hope is that Arias’ MRI brings good news, but Sunday’s scene painted a concerning picture for a club that can’t afford to lose more key pieces.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Ramírez took his base and stayed in the game to run but exited following the inning. The Guardians star was then held out against the Cardinals Friday.</p><p>Without Ramírez’s bat, Cleveland’s offense got steamrolled in consecutive matchups. Gausman went on to allow just two hits and one walk with six strikeouts in eight scoreless innings as Toronto won 6-0.</p><p>The following day, with Ramírez sidelined, the Guardians got blanked again. Cardinals starter <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/st-louis-cardinals/cardinals-news-sonny-gray-maddux-shutout-guardians">Sonny Gray was absolutely dominant</a>, delivering a one-hit complete-game shutout. Gray did not allow a walk while racking up 11 strikeouts in the 5-0 victory.</p><p>Ramírez’s return is great news for a Guardians team that’s lost three of the last four games, and has just three hits total in the last two contests. Cleveland has been outscored 25-11 over its four-game skid.</p><p>If the Guardians have any hope of making a playoff run this season, they’ll need their All-Star third baseman in the lineup. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/cleveland-guardians/guardians-news-jose-ramirez-mlb-era-history-incredible-2025-season">Ramírez made MLB history</a> earlier this month as the only player to lead his team in six offensive categories 65 games into a season on three separate occasions.</p><p>Despite missing some time, Ramírez still leads the Guardians in hits, home runs, RBI, runs scored and stolen bases. He’s also tops on the club in batting average, on-base percentage, slugging, OPS+ and total bases.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

MLB Network insider, Jon Morosi, recently said that the Guardians are <a href="https://x.com/MLBNetwork/status/1938620840566018222" rel="noopener">not likely to deal</a> closer Emmanuel Clase.</p><p>“I would say right now, the odds are still against a Clase trade this year at the deadline,” Morosi said.</p><p>Clase has enjoyed a productive 2025 season in Cleveland thus far. Through 34.2 innings, the three-time All-Star has earned 18 saves and posted a 3.38 ERA. The 27-year-old also holds a 1.84 career ERA.</p><p>Morosi also pointed out that this resurgence has come after a particularly challenging Postseason last fall. Clase surrendered eight runs in eight innings of work, and was not at his best.</p><p>Importantly, the Rio San Juan native did not struggle during the 2022 Postseason. He did not allow a run in his six innings. He also only permitted two walks and one hit.</p><p>Despite a rocky 2024 Postseason, his overall track record, recent play, and contract situation all make Clase an extremely attractive trade deadline target.</p><p>“The other reason why his value is all the way back is he is under control for three years,” Morosi said. “Three, after this one, including some very affordable club options, for one of the most dynamic relief pitchers in Major League Baseball.”</p><p>The Guardians are only a half game back of the final American League Wild Card spot. But, presently, all but two teams are within seven games of a playoff spot.</p><p>It is not known if Cleveland would be willing to trade Clase given they are still a competitive club in an American League that is wide open. General manager Mike Chernoff might be under the impression that the club is one or two additions away from being a threat.</p><p>The Guardians could stand to improve their lineup. They are below average in terms of both OPS and home runs.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/editorials/1-player-cleveland-guardians-must-trade-before-2025-deadline">Cleveland could be active</a> as either buyers or sellers before the deadline but early indications point to them keeping Clase.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They were hoping to do the same this year, but they are currently on the outside looking in. As it stands, Cleveland is one game over .500 heading into Wednesday, and they sit 9.5 games back in the American League Central. The good news is the Guardians are just 1.5 games back in the Wild Card race, so there is plenty of time for them to make up that ground.</p><p>The MLB trade deadline is approaching quickly, and the Guardians are still in the playoff race. That means Cleveland has some decisions to make. Do they want to waste the season, and trade away some of their better players and build for a better future, or should they go win-now mode?</p><p>There has been some trade speculation regarding the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/cleveland-guardians/mlb-rumors-insider-guardians-emmanuel-clase-trade-rumblings">Guardians being sellers</a>, but they do not have to be. Below are two players the Guardians should trade for heading into the MLB trade deadline.</p><h2><b>Guardians team needs</b></h2><p>The Guardians are struggling in a few areas of the game. To put it simply, though, Cleveland can use any impact player they can get. At the moment, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/cleveland-guardians/guardians-news-jose-ramirez-mlb-era-history-incredible-2025-season">Jose Ramirez is having a MVP-type season</a>, while Steven Kwan is hitting the way he has shown in the past. Other than those two, the Guardians could use a few more impact bats, and a few good pitchers.</p><p>As a team, Cleveland is slashing .230/.301/.372, and they have scored the sixth-fewest runs in the MLB. They are relying heavily on their pitching staff, and that is a big reason why the team is just one game over .500. Adding an impact bat would go a long way towards putting the Guardians in a position to make the ALCS once again.</p><p>On the mound, the Guardians are 15th in ERA, and 23rd in WHIP. Their pitching staff has not been great this year, but it is still a little bit better than what the hitters are doing. If the Guardians can find a way to add a solid pitcher, they will be significantly better.</p><h2><b>The Guardians should bring Josh Naylor back to Cleveland</b></h2><p>The Diamondbacks might not be keen on selling at the deadline. However, it could work out in their favor, especially if they want to be good in the near future. Trading Josh Naylor would help the team bring in a few high-level prospects that could make a difference in the next few years.</p><p>On the season, Josh Naylor is slashing .303/.358/.467 with nine home runs, 51 RBI, and 87 total hits in 75 games played. He has been one of the most consistent hitters in the MLB this year, and that is exactly what the Guardians are looking for.</p><p>Trading for Naylor would not be cheap, though. Because of his value, it would cost a few prospects that the Guardians might not be willing to give up. However, if Cleveland wants to make the postseason once again, trading for Naylor would be the way to do that.</p><h2><b>Sandy Alcantara would make a difference in the rotation</b></h2><p>Sandy Alcantara is struggling this year. He has an ERA north of 6.00, and he is just 4-8. However, he has been a lot better in June. The right hander has a 2.74 in his last four starts, and he has been pitching significantly better. With Alcantara at the center of trade rumors, this is great news for the Marlins as they can now force teams to give up a lot.</p><p>The Guardians would be smart to take that chance. On the season, starting pitchers for the Guardians are 15th in ERA, and 24th in WHIP. Cleveland’s starters have not pitched great this season, so adding an arm like Alcantara would help them make that playoff push.</p><p>With the right-hander starting to pitch better, it will not be easy to out-bid other teams. However, with a <a href="https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/miami-marlins/overview" rel="noopener">few years of club control</a> left with Sandy Alcantara, it could be a great investment.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He has twice led the league in doubles and hit for an OPS of .900 or better three times. The six-time All-Star has also won five Silver Sluggers. He still hasn’t captured that elusive MVP award, but has finished in the top three in voting three times.</p><p>So far this season, he is hitting .323 with a .910 OPS and 13 home runs.</p><h2><b>Royals star Bobby Witt Jr. goes around the infield</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Mariners-catcher-Cal-Raleigh.jpg"><figcaption>Jesse Johnson-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>With Witt manning shortstop in his ideal infield and Ramirez at third base, he went on to name the rest of his fantasy team. Cal Raleigh, the Seattle Mariners catcher who is on pace to break Aaron Judge’s American League home run record, got the nod behind the plate.</p><p>“He plays the game the right way, he plays hard, I love the guy,” Witt said.</p><p>Through 77 games, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/seattle-mariners/mariners-news-cal-raleigh-adds-mlb-home-run-record-32nd-blast">Raleigh has hit 32 home runs</a>, putting him on pace for 67 long balls, well ahead of pace compared to Judge’s 62.</p><p>At first base, Witt went with the Toronto Blue Jays’ Vladimir Guerrero Jr., who is pacing toward his fifth consecutive All-Star selection. He agreed to a 14-year extension with the Jays in April, keeping him off the free agent market, likely for the rest of his career.</p><p>Finally at second, Witt chose another rival — this time from across the state. He chose Brendan Donovan, the St. Louis Cardinals infielder who is having the best year of his career so far.

That puts them in a crowded Wild Card contest, which they could emerge from. But they could also trade some pieces away and regroup for the rest of Jose Ramirez’s prime. The Guardians are a fascinating team to watch ahead of the MLB trade deadline, <a href="https://x.com/MLBNetwork/status/1935724756201791675" rel="noopener">and one insider thinks</a> Emmanuel Clase may be on the table.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Will the Guardians trade Emmanuel Clase before the Trade Deadline?<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/MLBCentral?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#MLBCentral</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/Russ_Dorsey1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Russ_Dorsey1</a> <a href="https://t.co/BLr1BXiopt">pic.twitter.com/BLr1BXiopt</a></p><p>— MLB Network (@MLBNetwork) <a href="https://twitter.com/MLBNetwork/status/1935724756201791675?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 19, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>“Do [the Guardians] look at Emmanuel Clase and say ‘Hm, we have maybe the best high-leverage arm on the market?’ Especially with Ryan Helsley struggling right now. [Clase] started he season with a 6.75 ERA…over his last 19 appearances, a 1.47 ERA. That’s an opportunity for you, if they’re not in it, to potentially get a big haul back,” MLB Network Insider Russell Dorsey reported.</p><p>Clase finished second in American League Cy Young voting last season, behind just Tarik Skubal. Even with a poor postseason and that poor start Dorsey mentioned, he is still one of the top relievers in baseball. If the Guardians did trade Clase, it could bring back a massive haul of prospects. And as Dorsey acknowledges, Cleveland has been great at developing arms in recent years.</p><h2><b>Potential Emmanuel Clase landing spots if the Guardians trade him</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Emmanuel-Clase-with-Guardians.jpg"><figcaption>Ken Blaze-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Dorsey named the Cubs, Yankees, and Phillies as potential landing spots for Clase. The Yankees already made a trade for a closer, bringing in Devin Williams in the offseason, but that has not worked out great. Williams and Luke Weaver have traded the closer role back and forth throughout the season. While they have bigger issues, never count out New York.</p><p>The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/cubs-news-ryan-pressly-chicago-astros-waiving-no-trade-clause">Cubs also made a trade for a relief pitcher, bringing in Ryan Pressly</a>. But he has not been the closer that Clase would be. Given their one-year window with Kyle Tucker, although they hope it’s longer, they should go all-in this year. The Phillies brought in Carlos Estevez to close games for him last year, but he left in free agency. So bringing in Clase would make a lot of sense.</p><p>Of course, fans of every team hoped in the replies to beg their favorite squads to trade for Clase. The Mets have Edwin Diaz, the Rangers have too many other problems, and the Diamondbacks are more likely to be sellers. But the Padres could swing big for another bullpen arm, as could the Blue Jays, who are looking to snag an AL Wild Card spot.</p><p>Who should trade for the Guardians’ closer if he becomes available?</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Giants manager Bob Melvin indicated the team plans to hit Devers in the heart of the order, likely behind leadoff man Jung Hoo Lee and shortstop Willy Adames.</p><p>The 28-year-old was hitting .272 with 15 home runs, 58 RBIs, and a .504 slugging percentage this season before the trade. He gives San Francisco the middle-of-the-order threat they’ve been lacking, especially with Michael Conforto struggling and LaMonte Wade Jr. still sidelined.</p><h2><b>Rafael Devers to make debut for Giants</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Rafael-Devers-8.jpg"><figcaption>Eric Canha-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Devers’ arrival marks a seismic shift in the Giants’ offensive identity. Paired with Adames and Matt Chapman on the infield, Devers now gives San Francisco one of the most potent defensive and offensive trios in the National League.</p><p>The Giants currently sit in the thick of the Wild Card race, and this aggressive move signals the team is fully committed to contending in 2025 and beyond.</p><p>Giants lineup projection vs. Guardians<br>The Giants have yet to release the official lineup, but here’s the expected batting order for Tuesday night:</p><p>Jung Hoo Lee – CF<br>Willy Adames – SS<br>Rafael Devers – 3B<br>Dom Smith – 1B<br>Heliot Ramos – LF<br>Wilmer Flores – DH<br>Mike Yastrzemski – RF<br>Tyler Fitzgerald- 2B<br>Andrew Knizner – C<br>Robbie Ray is scheduled to start on the mound for San Francisco.</p><p>So, when it comes to the question of if Rafael Devers is playing tonight vs. the Guardians — the answer is yes.

And he’s just 32 years old, so Ramirez still has plenty of time to build out his resume.</p><p>Unfortunately, despite Ramirez’s continued brilliance, the Guardians are out of the playoff race at the moment. The team lost for the fourth time in the last five games and fell to 34-31 on the season. Cleveland is now eight games behind the first-place Detroit Tigers in the AL Central. And Detroit has shown no sign of slowing down.</p><p>The Guardians lost their series opener against the Cincinnati Reds 7-4 on Monday. The battle of Ohio will continue Tuesday when Slade Cecconi takes the mound against the Reds’ Andrew Abbott.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

As the process continues, the former Cy Young award winner is looking to return to Cleveland sooner rather than later. However, a recent setback in his recovery has tested his attitude about his rehab. <a href="https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/45470713/guardians-ace-shane-bieber-stays-optimistic-setback" rel="noopener">He opened up about it</a> to the press, including the Associated Press and ESPN, on Saturday.</p><p>“‘My mind went back to a very close buddy of mine said a few weeks or a few months back when I was starting bullpens. He was like, ‘Just don’t freak out. If you get a setback, everybody gets at least one,'” Bieber said before Saturday’s game against the Houston Astros. “‘I was hoping to be that anomaly, but at the same time, maybe it’s just part of the process and I’m trying to listen to my elbow and my body and do what’s best for myself and the team in the long term.'”</p><p>The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/guardians-news-shane-bieber-suffers-injury-setback">soreness that Bieber has experienced</a> in his right elbow has caused the Guardians to pause his rehab for the time being. As the team looks to crawl out of their seven and a half game deficit in the AL Central, they are also still battling an injury crisis. Catcher Austin Hedges recently went <a href="https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/45466967/guardians-put-austin-hedges-7-day-il-fifth-concussion" rel="noopener">on the concussion IL.</a> Fellow starting pitcher Ben Lively is now out for the year due to Tommy John surgery himself. Can manager Stephen Vogt get this team back on track before it’s too late?</p><h2><b>Guardians look to get back on track while dealing with injury issues</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Guardians-C-Austin-Hedges.jpg"><figcaption>Mandatory Credit: David Richard-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/guardians-news-guardians-re-signs-backup-catcher-playoff-run">Losing Hedges on the heels</a> of also losing Lively were some big hits that the big-league roster took. Outfielders Lane Thomas and Will Brennan are dealing with ailments of their own. Multiple bullpen arms have also hit the IL. As the Guardians try and recapture the magic of Vogt’s first season in 2024, losing these players has contributed to their current place in the standings.</p><p>However, setbacks are common in Tommy John recovery. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/guardians-news-shane-bieber-rehab-start-injury-return">Bieber knows that full well.</a> If his elbow holds up, don’t be surprised to see the longtime Guardian try and fight his way back to Cleveland. In order for his team to reach October once again, it will fall to Bieber to regain his previous form. Can it be done? Or will the infamous surgery halt the progress of yet another young, talented arm too soon?</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
