DANIEL SCHNEEMANN NEWS

Posts second steal Schneemann went 1-for-2 with a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 9-5 loss to the Orioles.

Impact After sitting out the first two games of this four-game set versus the Orioles, Schneemann started the last two and went 3-for-6 with a double and a steal. The utility man was at shortstop for the first time in four games -- Brayan Rocchio has been clawing back some playing time at that position in what remains an open competition that could also include Tyler Freeman. Schneemann is slashing .227/.304/.429 with four home runs, two steals, 16 RBI and 12 runs scored over 135 plate appearances, but he's hitting just .200 (6-for-30) since the All-Star break.

Absent from Cleveland lineup Schneemann is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Tigers.

Sitting out Monday Schneemann is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Tigers.

Impact Schneemann has been a regular for the Guardians in a super utility role, but the left-handed batter will begin this one on the bench with Detroit starting southpaw Tarik Skubal.

Clubs fourth homer Schneemann went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Tigers.

Impact Schneemann got the Guardians within a run with his fourth-inning blast, but they couldn't pull even. The utility player has gone 4-for-20 (.200) across seven games in July, though all of those hits have gone for extra bases (two homers, two doubles). He's at a .247/.348/.506 slash line with four homers, 14 RBI, 10 runs scored, four doubles, two triples and one stolen base through 92 plate appearances. Schneemann continues to be an option at multiple positions, putting pressure on Jhonkensy Noel, Tyler Freeman and Brayan Rocchio as the Guardians have a number of different looks to fill out the bottom half of the order.

Sitting against southpaw Schneemann isn't in the Guardians' lineup for Saturday's game versus the Giants.

JULY 6 • ROTOWIRE

On bench against lefty Schneeman is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the White Sox.

Impact Schneeman started the previous three games and went 3-for-10 with a double and a homer, but he'll sit Thursday as southpaw Jared Shuster takes the mound for Chicago. Angel Martinez will handle center field and bat second.

JULY 4 • ROTOWIRE

Clubs third homer Schneemann went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 7-6 win over the White Sox.

Impact Schneemann has gone 10-for-41 (.244) with three homers and nine RBI over his last 13 games. The utility man is at a .262/.356/.508 slash line over his first 73 plate appearances in the majors, which has been enough to keep him in the lineup fairly regularly. He's seen most of his recent playing time between center field and right field, offering a left-handed-hitting option to complement righties Tyler Freeman and Jhonkensy Noel.

JULY 3 • ROTOWIRE

JUNE 29 • ROTOWIRE

Swats homer in Saturday's win Schneemann went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Blue Jays.

Impact Schneemann has hit both of his homers this season over his last five games. The 26-year-old continues to find ways into the lineup -- he's hitting .297 with a .990 OPS over 45 plate appearances since he was called up June 2. He's primarily seen time in center field and at third base and shortstop, and his defensive versatility should help him continue to carve out decent playing time, though he's unlikely to get a majority of the reps at any one position.

JUNE 23 • ROTOWIRE

Drawing fifth straight start Schneemann will start at shortstop and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Mariners.

Impact Schneemann will make his fifth straight start and will occupy his third different position over that span.
