Guardians Give Update On Encouraging Pitcher's Next Start

Vogt did not say who would start in Cecconi's place on Wednesday, but would have more information following Tuesday's game.

This isn't necessarily encouraging news for a pitcher who has been a breath of fresh air for a Guardians rotation that has desperately needed it.

The good news is that Cecconi has avoided being placed on the injured list for now.

In two starts, Cecconi has given up just four runs in 11.0 innings (3.27 ERA). His command was a true standout in these starts, striking out 14 batters and walking just two.

Cecconi was the key piece that the Guardians acquired in the Josh Naylor trade over the winter.

Cleveland is certainly missing Naylor's offense, but the deal will look much different if Cecconi can prove to be a solid middle-of-the-rotation arm.

However, the critical part of that equation is Cecconi remaining healthy.
