The Cleveland Guardians are close to finalizing a minor-league deal with first baseman Rhys Hoskins, who would receive a base salary of $1.5 million if he makes the major league roster. The 32-year-old, who played for the Milwaukee Brewers the past two seasons, posted a .749 OPS with 12 home runs in 90 games last year. While he has a strong offensive record, Hoskins is considered a below-average defender at first base. Cleveland aims for its third consecutive AL Central title.
