Optioned to Triple-A
The Guardians optioned Aleman (abdomen) to Triple-A Columbus on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Aleman is working his way back from hernia surgery and will start the 2025 campaign in Triple-A once he's fully recovered from the procedure. He could see time in the majors at some point this season should the Guardians need a right-handed option out of the bullpen. Aleman appeared in 24 games at Triple-A during the 2024 regular season and posted a 1.99 ERA, 1.08 WHIP, 34:10 K:BB and two saves across 22.2 innings.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Aleman posted a strong 36.7 K-BB% and didn't allow a run in 24 innings while notching seven saves at Double-A last season. His fastball reportedly touches 100 mph and sits in the upper-90s and his slider is his go-to offspeed pitch. He's a darkhorse future closer or impact reliever.
