Joey Cantillo - Charged with first big-league loss Cantillo took the loss against Baltimore on Saturday, allowing three runs on six hits and no walks while striking out four batters over four-plus innings.
Impact Cantillo got through three scoreless frames before the Orioles touched him up for two runs in the fourth. The southpaw returned for the fifth inning but was pulled after giving up a leadoff double to Jackson Holliday, and he moved into position for the loss when Holliday scored following the hurler's departure. Cantillo did show some positives in notching 10 whiffs and issuing zero walks while recording four punchouts, but he's now given up six earned runs through his first 7.1 big-league innings.

Brayan Rocchio - Registers steal in win Rocchio went 2-for-3 with a walk, one RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 8-4 win over the Orioles.
Impact Rocchio has started four of the last five games, suggesting he is clawing back some playing time from Daniel Schneemann, though the Guardians have faced three southpaws in that span. Over his last seven contests, Rocchio is 5-for-19 (.263) with two extra-base hits. He's at a .211/.304/.308 slash line with four home runs, eight steals, 21 RBI and 37 runs scored over 308 plate appearances this year. Cleveland has tried a number of players at shortstop in 2024, and it's likely the position remains up for grabs the rest of the way.

Steven Kwan - Logs steal Friday Kwan went 1-for-4 with a walk, one RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 8-4 win over the Orioles.
Impact Kwan picked up his first steal since July 19. Over his last 14 games, the outfielder has been uncharacteristically quiet at the plate, batting just .232 (13-for-56), though he has swatted two home runs in that span. He's at a .332/.385/.484 slash line with 11 homers, seven steals, 31 RBI and 60 runs scored over 83 contests this season. It's likely his recent dip is a product of regression after an impressive first half of the campaign.

Cade Smith - Picks up sixth win Smith (6-1) struck out three over 1.2 perfect innings to earn the win Friday over the Orioles.
Impact Carlos Carrasco covered only 4.1 innings, and Smith was able to vulture a win with another strong performance. This outing extended Smith's scoreless streak to 16 innings over his last 13 appearances, and he's allowed just six hits and two walks while striking out 25 in that span. For the season, he's at a 1.86 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 74:11 K:BB, and he's backed up those stellar numbers with a 1.42 FIP and 2.34 xERA that suggest his dominance is mostly earned.

Carlos Carrasco - Walks four in no-decision Carrasco allowed a run on one hit and four walks over 4.1 innings in a no-decision Friday. He struck out five during the win over the Orioles.
Impact Carrasco struggled with his command and failed to complete five innings to earn the win but he turned in a fine outing. After giving up a run in the second inning, he retired eight of the last nine batters he faced. He had taken a loss in his previous three starts, giving up a combined 13 runs in 14 innings during that stretch. On the year, Carrasco is 3-9 with a 5.53 ERA and an 84:31 K:BB through 99.1 innings. He's currently in line for a home matchup with the Diamondbacks next week.

While he's already gone deep a career-high 23 times, he has just one home run over his last 15 appearances. Naylor is slashing .250/.330/.484 with 77 RBI through 101 games.
