Cleveland Guardians second baseman Andres Gimenez will take a seat on Monday for the series opener against the visiting Detroit Tigers with tough left-hander Tarik Skubal on the mound. In addition to Gimenez, the Guardians are resting infielder Daniel Schneemann, catcher Bo Naylor and outfielder Will Brennan. Tyler Freeman is starting at the keystone and batting seventh, Brayan Rocchio is at short and hitting eighth, Austin Hedges is doing the catching and batting ninth, and Angel Martinez draws into the lineup in center field while hitting in the two-hole against Skubal. Gimenez is hitting .245 (26-for-106) with only one of his five home runs on the season coming against southpaws. Overall in 2024, he's slashing .247/.300/.331 with a below-average .631 OPS, five homers, 45 RBI and 15 stolen bases in 92 games played for Cleveland.
Cleveland Guardians second baseman Andres Gimenez was pivotal in igniting a six-run offensive outburst as Cleveland came from behind to sweep the New York Mets on Wednesday. Gimenez came to bat with two outs in the bottom of the sixth inning against Jose Quintana and delivered a game-tying, three-run blast to help swing momentum to the Guardians dugout. Gimenez finished the day 1-for-3, scoring two runs and knocking in three while notching his fourth homer of the season. The 25-year-old is putting together a nice season for the American League Central-leading Guardians and is firmly entrenched at the top of a potent lineup. It wouldn't be surprising to see Gimenez surpass his career-highs in both runs (76) and RBI (69) in 2024.
Cleveland Guardians second baseman Andres Gimenez went yard for the third time this season in Sunday's win over the division-rival Minnesota Twins, also drawing a walk in the victory. Gimenez took Twins right-hander Chris Paddack deep to plate Tyler Freeman in the first inning, later walking and scoring a run in the ninth frame. The 25-year-old former All-Star is on a prolific run during his current seven-game hitting streak, batting a torrid .464 (13-for-28) with two home runs, eight RBI, seven runs scored, and two stolen bases over this hot stretch as Cleveland's everyday No. 2 hitter. Up next for Gimenez is a three-game series starting on Monday against the New York Mets, the team that traded him away back in 2021. Last season, he went hitless in eight at-bats against the Mets.
Cleveland Guardians catcher Bo Naylor and second baseman Andres Gimenez are both out of the starting lineup on Friday against the Chicago White Sox. Gabriel Arias will fill in at the keystone for Gimenez and bat eighth, while Austin Hedges is doing the catching and is batting in the nine-hole against White Sox left-hander Garrett Crochet. Neither Arias nor Hedges should be much of a consideration in DFS for Friday's lineups. Naylor is off to a slow start, unlike his brother, in 2024, as he's hitting just .189/.280/.295 with three home runs and nine RBI in his first 30 games. Gimenez is slashing .248/.316/.333 with one long ball, 19 RBI, five stolen bases and 19 runs scored in 141 at-bats as Cleveland's regular second baseman. Both Naylor and Gimenez should be back in action on Saturday.
Cleveland Guardians second baseman Andres Gimenez is back in the Guardians lineup and hitting second for Saturday night's game against the Atlanta Braves. Gimenez was out on Friday against Braves' southpaw Chris Sale but gets a matchup today against Charlie Morton. The lefty has never faced Morton in his career. He's hitting for a fairly average .664 OPS but has been hitting better on the road, increasing his OPS to .785 away from Progressive Field. Charlie Morton has fared much worse against lefties in 2024, putting Gimenez in a favorable matchup. Those looking for an option in DFS formats may want to entertain adding the Guardians' lefty into their lineup on Saturday night.
