3 free agents Cleveland Guardians should rush to sign with lockout over
The Cleveland Guardians said they were going to spend when the lockout ended, and with free agency about to hit a mad rush ,it’s time for the front office to ante up.
Nobody expects the organization to spend like the Yankees, but the hope is they’ll shell out a little money.
Currently, the Guardians payroll is hovering around $50 million–one of the lowest figures in the game. They ahead of just the lowly Orioles and Pirates.
Every team is going to condense a five-month offseason into two weeks, and the pressure is really on the Guardians to do so. Currently, the 40-man roster has 14 players with no major-league experience.
Chris Anontetti and Mike Chernoff could always swing a trade, but there really is room for a couple of signings.
With that in mind, here’s three veteran free-agents the Guardians should rush to sign.
