The Cleveland Guardians are promoting catching prospect Cooper Ingle from Triple-A to make his MLB debut as designated hitter, batting fifth. Ranked the team’s third-best prospect and 68th overall by MLB.com, Ingle boasts a strong batting eye and disciplined approach, with a .284/.416/.551 line at Triple-A. While he faces concerns about his receiving skills and arm strength, he will benefit from mentorship from experienced catchers Patrick Bailey and Austin Hedges.
