Three MLB general managers told ESPN's Jeff Passan this week that they believe the Cleveland Guardians will trade starting pitcher Shane Bieber before the Aug. 1 trade deadline.
"Cleveland's done it before: It traded Mike Clevinger at the deadline in 2020 and Trevor Bauer in 2019," Passan wrote.
"With Triston McKenzie's return imminent, Logan Allen and Tanner Bibee looking great and Gavin Williams arriving soon, the next generation of Cleveland pitching is coming. Everything lines up. And if Bieber goes, Amed Rosario could join him—maybe in the same deal, maybe separately.
