The Guardians are set to recall right-hander Daniel Espino for his MLB debut, requiring only a 26-man roster move as he is on the 40-man roster. Espino, 25, faced significant injury setbacks over the past three seasons, making just one Triple-A appearance in 2022 after missing 2023 and 2024. Previously a top prospect, he shifted to a bullpen role this season, posting a 5.30 ERA in 22 Triple-A appearances while maintaining a 33.3% strikeout rate. Although he may not start in high-leverage situations, his strikeout ability could benefit the Guardians’ bullpen.
