Core Players Must Step Up | Cleveland Guardians News

The Guardians are still hunting for upgrades before the trade deadline, but team president Chris Antonetti’s message is clear: it’s time for the current roster to step up.

The latest deal sends struggling catcher Bo Naylor and pitcher Codi Heuer to Milwaukee for Craig Yoho (bullpen) and Blake Perkins (outfield), hoping to plug holes while letting Naylor chase consistency elsewhere. Antonetti and manager Vogt acknowledged Naylor’s talent but admitted they couldn’t unlock his potential — now it’s his turn to find his groove on a new team.
