While the Guardians have yet to make a big splash this offseason, they’ve been busy making moves on the margins on the roster thanks to their additions to relievers Connor Brogdon, Peyton Pallette and Colin Holderman.
While Brogdon and Holderman have 10 combined years of MLB experience, neither of them are household names given the fact they’ve struggled with injuries and have mostly worked in lower-leverage opportunities. And then there’s Pallette, who has yet to make his MLB debut but was selected by the Guardians in the Rule 5 Draft.
At face value, those additions make a ton of sense considering Emmanuel Clase is still on paid leave and Jakob Junis, Nic Enright and Kolby Allard departed in free agency.
