Cleveland Guardians fans are buzzing about the teams tight payroll and its impact on star outfielder Steven Kwans future. The clubs cautious spending has left room for potential long-term deals, but also led to the release of power-hitting prospect Jhonkensy Noel. Meanwhile, former Guardians pitcher Triston McKenzie has signed with the San Diego Padres. The teams platooning strategy, aimed at controlling costs, has proven successful, taking them to the World Series and back-to-back AL Central titles. Looking ahead, outfielder George Valera and prospect Khal Stephen could factor into the opening day roster, while the bullpen sees new additions. The Guardians are expected to make low-risk moves to boost the offense before opening day, continuing their strategy of building for contention while keeping payroll in check.
