Guardians' Outfield Future Uncertain Heading Into Offseason
Cleveland's outfield has been a multi-year weakness, but a trio of Kwan, Adell, and DeLauter could change that — if all three remain on the roster.
Cleveland outfielders have ranked among the worst in baseball since 2021, posting a collective wRC+ tied for 28th. This season shows improvement, with rookie Chase DeLauter emerging, Steven Kwan rebounding after a slow start, and deadline acquisition Jo Adell finding his footing in 110 plate appearances. A 2027 outfield of all three could be the strongest Cleveland has fielded in years. However, the Guardians' typical cost-conscious approach raises real questions about whether all three will remain with the club.
