Joey Cantillo - Sent down Cantillo was optioned to Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday.
Impact Cantillo's demotion was expected after he served as the 27th man in Monday's doubleheader versus the Royals. He's pitched to a 7.71 ERA over 18.2 innings in the majors this year. With an off day Thursday, the Guardians may be able to get by with a four-man rotation until Alex Cobb (fingernail) is ready to return, which means Cantillo could be staying at Triple-A for a while.

Logan Allen - Returned to Triple-A The Guardians optioned Allen to Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday.
Impact Allen joined the 26-man roster to make a spot start during Monday's doubleheader against Kansas City, where he allowed five runs in five innings. He'll be replaced by Anthony Gose on the active roster, who'll provide some bullpen depth. The left-handed Allen has a 5.73 ERA in 97.1 innings with Cleveland this season.

Anthony Gose - Back on 26-man roster The Guardians selected Gose's contract from Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday.
Impact Gose was designated for assignment for the second time in August on Wednesday but inked a minor-league deal with the Guardians on Saturday and will rejoin the active roster. The 34-year-old allowed two runs in his lone appearance with the Guardians this season and has logged a 3.46 ERA across 39 innings for Columbus. Logan Allen was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Daniel Schneemann - Hits homer in nightcap Schneemann went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a 9-4 loss to the Royals in the second game of Monday's doubleheader.
Impact Schneemann went 0-for-1 as a pinch hitter in the matinee, but he logged his fourth multi-hit effort in five contests while starting at third base in the nightcap. The utility man has yet to lock down one steady spot in the lineup, but he's seen regular playing time between center field, shortstop and third base lately. With Lane Thomas struggling since he was traded from the Nationals, the Guardians may opt to have Schneemann handle a strong-side platoon role in center field eventually. For the season, Schneemann is slashing .239/.320/.413 with five homers, three stolen bases, 21 RBI and 15 runs scored over 58 games.

Joey Cantillo - Works late in Game 1 Cantillo didn't allow a baserunner over 1.2 scoreless innings and struck out one in a 4-3 loss to the Royals in Game 1 of Monday's doubleheader.
Impact Cantillo was scheduled to pitch in the game but didn't appear until the eighth inning, as the Guardians opted for a true bullpen game in the matinee rather than an opener/bulk reliever format. This was Cantillo's first scoreless appearance in five major-league outings this season. He now has a 7.71 ERA, 1.61 WHIP and 15:9 K:BB over 18.2 innings. He was the 27th man for the doubleheader, so it's likely Cantillo will be returned to Triple-A Columbus before Tuesday's game.
AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE
Hunter Gaddis - Takes loss in matinee Gaddis (4-3) allowed a run on two hits over one-third of an inning, taking the loss in Game 1 of Monday's doubleheader versus the Royals.
Impact Gaddis allowed a solo home run to Bobby Witt in the eighth inning, which put the Royals ahead 4-3. This was the third time Gaddis has been scored upon in August, and the last two instances have been solo homers. While he's been a little shaky lately, the right-hander still has an impressive 1.65 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 55:12 K:BB while racking up 28 holds over 60 innings this season.

José Ramírez - XBH barrage in twin bill Ramirez went 4-for-8 with a walk, four doubles, two runs scored and an RBI in Monday's doubleheader against the Royals.
Impact The Guardians dropped both games of the twin bill, but that was through no fault of Ramirez -- the only other extra-base hit any Cleveland batter managed in either contest was a solo shot by Daniel Schneemann in the nightcap. Ramirez's barrage of two-baggers brought him to 31 doubles on the season, to go with 33 homers and 32 steals. It's the second time in his career he's produced a 30-30-30 campaign, and per Zack Meisel of The Athletic, it's a feat only one other player in Cleveland history (Grady Sizemore in 2008) has accomplished.
AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE
Logan Allen - Hit hard in spot start Allen (8-5) took the loss in the second game of Monday's doubleheader against the Royals, coughing up five runs on eight hits and four walks over five innings. He struck out one.
Impact Called up to make a spot start in the twin bill, Allen tossed only 43 of 76 pitches for strikes, and when he did get the ball over the plate, Kansas City hitters tended to hit it hard -- four of the eight hits off the southpaw went for extra bases, including solo homers by Paul DeJong in the second inning and Salvador Perez in the fifth. The Guardians are still looking for a reliable fifth starter with Alex Cobb (finger) sidelined, but Allen doesn't appear to be a solution given his 5.73 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and 2.03 HR/9 over 97.1 big-league innings this season.
