Joey Cantillo Recalled by Cleveland Guardians on April 29, 2025
The Cleveland Guardians have recalled left-handed starting pitcher Joey Cantillo.
What It Means
With the recall, the Guardians add another left-handed option to their pitching staff. Cantillo's season stats show an ERA of 2.35 over 15 1/3 innings with 20 strikeouts. He has appeared in 11 games this season, though none as a starter.
This transaction could impact the upcoming game against the Minnesota Twins at Progressive Field. Cantillo joins a rotation that includes Tanner Bibee and Luis L. Ortiz. This move may provide extra depth for the Guardians' bullpen. His performance at home this season has been strong, with a home ERA of 1.8 and a K/9 of 17.5.
