Guardians place Gabriel Arias on IL with ankle sprain, recall Brayan Rocchio from Triple-A
CHICAGO — The Cleveland Guardians placed shortstop Gabriel Arias on the 10-day injured list with a left ankle sprain before Tuesday night's game at the Chicago Cubs and recalled infielder Brayan Rocchio from Triple-A Columbus. Rocchio was in Cleveland's lineup at shortstop and batting ninth for the series opener at Wrigley Field. Arias was taken off the field on a cart after getting hurt in the third inning of Sunday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. The team said X-rays were negative and Arias underwent an MRI on Monday. 'It looks like we got pretty lucky,' manager Stephen Vogt said. 'It looks like a moderate ankle sprain. So we'll have more information on him when we get back (to Cleveland on Friday), but it sounds like he avoided some major injury, which is great.' Arias is batting .231 with six homers and 31 RBIs in 77 games in his first full season as a starter. Arias went deep into the hole to field a grounder by Masyn Winn with one out, but caught his left spike on the grass and awkwardly rolled his ankle. The ball wound up in left field for a single. Arias immediately grabbed his leg and remained down for several minutes. Rocchio opened the season with the Guardians, but was optioned to Triple-A on May 12 after batting only .165 with eight RBIs in 35 games. In 41 games with Columbus, he hit .252 with seven home runs and 30 RBIs. ___ AP MLB:

Reliable Daniel Schneemann Carves Out A Role With Cleveland Guardians
CLEVELAND, OH - APRIL 13: Cleveland Guardians second baseman Daniel Schneemann (10) is congratulates ... More in the dugout after hitting a double and scoring on a throwing error during the third inning of the Major League Baseball game between the Kansas City Royals and Cleveland Guardians on April 13, 2025, at Progressive Field in Cleveland, OH. (Photo by Frank Jansky/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images) Left-handed hitting Daniel Schneemann has made his presence known on the Cleveland Guardians roster. Schneemann, 28, has taken full advantage of the opportunities given to him by Guardians manager, Stephen Vogt. Schneemann is an extremely versatile baseball player. Schneemann likely comes to games with several baseball gloves, as he has played second base, third base, shortstop, and the outfield in parts of two seasons on the Guardians parent club. A true Swiss Army knife type player, it is his defensive prowess at so many positions that may have first caught the eyes of the Guardians front office. It is, however, his ability to smoke a baseball from the left side of the plate that keeps his manager offering Schneemann significant playing time. Lately, Schneemann is in the lineup against right-handed pitching, the strong and most common part of a left-handed, right-handed hitting platoon. Schneemann has been hitting the ball so hard, he has virtually relegated the Guardians Brayan Rocchio back to Triple-A Columbus. Rocchio was optioned May 12. Schneemann has claimed the second base role as his own, with stellar defensive infielder Gabriel Arias assuming the starting role at shortstop. Cleveland Guardians' Daniel Schneemann hits a home run during the eighth inning in the first ... More baseball game of a doubleheader against the Washington Nationals, Tuesday, May 6, 2025, in Washington. (AP Photo/Daniel Kucin Jr.) Daniel Schneemann first caught the eye of this old scout in the Guardians 2024 spring training camp in Goodyear, Arizona. Watching Schneemann every day in his workouts and in spring games, this observer found Schneemann to be very reliable on both sides of the ball. Offensively, Schneemann hit the ball hard, and found the right-center gap with frequency. Defensively, Schneemann moved around the diamond and played each position with confidence and excellent ability. Schneemann was ultimately promoted to the Guardians, making his big league debut June 2, 2024. This is the Daniel Schneemann scouting report this old scout filed on these pages last June. One of the remarkable factors about Schneemann is his ability to make a major league club after being a 33rd round draft pick of the (then) Cleveland Indians in 2018. It is a struggle for any player, even a top draft pick, to make the major leagues. Consider the difficulties a 33rd round player must overcome. Frankly, those selected before him in his draft class were most likely offered more opportunities, more chances to show coaches their skills and tools. Schneemann was listed as a shortstop at the time he was drafted. Schneemann was given a $50,000 signing bonus, which was far below the millions many prospects are given at the time of the draft. This season, Schneemann put himself on the minds of baseball fans when he hit two home runs against the Toronto Blue Jays May 4, 2025 His first homer was a solo blast in the eighth inning. His second was a monster grand-slam with two outs in the ninth inning. He gave his team a much valued win. Here is what manager Stephen Vogt told about Schneemann after his epic game. 'He's been waiting for this his whole life,' Vogt said. 'Daniel Schneemann's a really good baseball player. We've been saying it for over a year now. He means so much to this team, his versatility, but also he's just really good. What a cool moment. Something he'll never forget.' CLEVELAND, OHIO - APRIL 13: Daniel Schneemann #10 of the Cleveland Guardians catches a pop fly ball ... More hit by Bobby Witt Jr. of the Kansas City Royals during the seventh inning at Progressive Field on April 13, 2025 in Cleveland, Ohio. (Photo by) Last year for the Guardians, Daniel Schneemann played in 73 games as a rookie. He hit .218/.303/.368/.671, with 10 doubles, two triples, five home runs, and three stolen bases in five attempts. He struck out 70 times in 221 plate appearances. After his great spring, last season was a time of adjustment for Schneemann. He was facing most pitchers for the first time in his career. There were times Schneemann was fooled badly by solid pitch sequencing. This year seems different. While Schneemann may have entered last season confident after his solid spring, his confidence took a hit during the season. At times he looked defeated. What a difference this new season has made. Daniel Schneemann looks like he can accept any challenge he is offered by his manager, or by opposing pitchers. Schneemann has become a tough out. Schneemann is not only hitting the ball off the barrel with force, he is showing his baseball running speed and instincts. Defensively, he is making all the plays, and earning the trust his manager has placed in him. At the end of play May 12, here are Schneemann's hitting .263, with five doubles, five home runs, and 12 RBIs. He has played in 31 games, and has 91 plate appearances.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm Jr explains why he was unable to make play that scored a run: 'You don't want to die'
Brayan Rocchio was hitting just .222 entering Monday night, but he went 2-for-2 with an RBI single that resulted in some good luck. The Cleveland Guardians shortstop came to the dish in the fourth inning with a man on third when he broke his bat on a pitch from Clarke Schmidt. The ball scooted past Jazz Chisholm Jr. at second base, who ducked away at the last second as a large piece of the bat was also headed in his direction. According to Baseball Savant, the ball left Rocchio's bat at just 64.8 mph, which isn't exactly ideal. But it's a hard line drive in the box score. Chisholm was asked about the play, and he kept it rather blunt. "I want to make every play out there for my guy, but at the same time, you don't want to die," Chisholm said. "You got a sharp object coming your way. I've seen guys get stabbed with broken bats in person, so I know how bad the injury can be. The toughest thing to do as a baseball player right now is to stay on the field. So at the same time, we got to protect ourselves when we're playing out there, especially when stuff like that is happening." Chisholm said he was hit in the calf with pieces of a broken bat in the minors. "That's why I'm a little bit more cautious about going after balls when the bat's in the same lane," he added. Chisholm redeemed himself later on with his seventh home run of the year, which is tied for the most on the New York Yankees with none other than Aaron Judge. But the Yankees' comeback fell just short as they lost, 6-4, to the team they defeated in the American League Championship Series last year.
