D-backs save Guardians from themselves with latest Ketel Marte update
Cleveland Guardians v Arizona Diamondbacks | Chris Coduto/GettyImagesAt long last, an offseason transaction broke the Guardians away.
After two months of the American League getting better and better thanks to impact trades and free agent signings, we got confirmation on Friday that at least one impact player will be staying in the National League thanks to the Diamondbacks pulling second baseman Ketel Marte off the trade market.
While that hurts a little bit given how good of a fit Marte would have been in Cleveland, the fact that he’s going to stay on the other side of the country is a good thing when it comes to the Guardians’ standing in the American League.
