Ortiz is the best pitcher on this team. Fantastic trade !
Cecconi is a very close second if not the best right now.

Offensively challenged Guardians dazzled by Sonny Gray and Cardinals, 5-0.

In the last 2 games, the Guards have more errors (6) than runs (0).

We're still in second place 10 1/2 games behind. Barring a complete collapse, this should be a cakewalk to the division championship for the Tigers. How did this division go from being one of the best to one of the worst in one year? We're still a game and a half behind in the wildcard fight.

I would like to see Nolan Jones get more starts against left handed pitching !! Can't be any worse than the rag tag group of right handed hitters we have right now.

Hasn't anyone checked his records? I just did. Better than the right handed hitters we currently have on the team:

Nolan Jones has demonstrated the ability to hit left-handed pitching, but he is often part of a platoon, meaning he is frequently held out of the lineup against left-handed starters. While he has had success against lefties in the past, including a strong rookie season, his performance against them in the current season is more mixed.

Here's a more detailed look:

Career Performance:

In his career, Jones has a batting average of .259 with 8 home runs and 26 RBIs in 259 plate appearances against left-handed pitchers, according to StatMuse.

Rookie Season Success:

In his rookie season (2023), he batted .314 with 7 homers and 19 RBIs in 130 plate appearances against left-handed pitchers, according to StatMuse.

Current Season (2025):

In the current season, his performance against left-handed pitching is less impressive, but still shows some potential.

Platoon Player:

The Cleveland Guardians often platoon him due to his struggles against right-handed pitching and his generally stronger numbers against lefties.

Room for Improvement:

Despite his past success against lefties, Jones's current struggles against them in 2025, combined with his struggles against righties, suggest he may need to make adjustments to improve his overall consistency.
