AutoDraft Pro AI

Cleveland Guardians All-Star outfielder Steven Kwan was scratched from Friday's lineup against the Athletics due to persistent right wrist soreness, an issue he has been managing for over a month. After participating in Tuesday night's All-Star Game, where he had an infield hit that tied the game in the ninth inning, Kwan met with doctors on Wednesday and received an injection for the inflammation. Manager Stephen Vogt confirmed Kwan is day-to-day, noting this is only his sixth missed game this season, where he is batting .285 with six home runs and 32 RBIs.
