Cleveland Guardians news and notes for Thursday, March 30, 2023
HAPPY OPENING DAY!
Now that that’s out of the way, let’s talk about Trevor Stephan. The Guardians and their star reliever have reportedly agreed to a four-year, $10 million deal that includes a pair of club options. Pending a physical, of course.
Assuming the deal starts this season as reported, it will buy out all of Stephan’s arbitration years and could go into free agency with the options.
Reliever Trevor Stephan’s four-year contract extension with the Cleveland Guardians is worth $10 million, according to a source familiar with the deal. It includes club options for $7.25 million in 2027 and $7.5 million in 2028.
A former Rule 5-draft pick, Stephan broke out last year thanks to a split-finger changeup he developed that helped him keep more balls on the ground. He finished with a 2.34 ERA and held batters to a .239 wOBA with a career-high 30.7% strikeout rate. With Stephan and Emmanuel Clase both on long-term deals, the Guardians have the back end of their bullpen locked up through at least 2026 and potentially as far as 2028.
