Vogt on Trades, Openers, and 10K Wins | Cleveland Guardians News

With the trade deadline fast approaching, Guardians manager Stephen Vogt is keeping his team grounded, staying out of front office chatter until deals are official. He’s wary of the chaos trade talk can bring, relieved when the deadline passes and focus returns to the field. Vogt weighs the team’s opener strategy — a move that demands perfect timing, bullpen readiness, and game-specific conditions. He’s also high on pitcher Joey Cantillo, stressing command over velocity, especially with his fastball working up in the zone to maximize his off-speed stuff. As the franchise inches toward its 10,000th win — a milestone honoring the organization’s enduring legacy — Vogt’s proud to be part of the journey. And he’s not just playing for wins — he’s relishing the Ohio Cup rivalry with the Reds, with Wednesday’s game deciding who claims the trophy this season.
