Guardians Drop Opener vs. Kansas City in Frustrating Fashion; What's the Deal With Matthew Boyd?

Locked On Guardians - Daily Podcast On The Cleveland Guardians

Even though the Guardians dropped the series opener in Kansas City in a frustrating way, it's nice to feel like the sky isn't falling. Today's episode of Locked On Guardians does get into why the loss was frustrating for reasons that include both the game itself and the rest of the series.

After venting about the loss, the episode dives into why the Guardians have reportedly signed LHP Matthew Boyd, why they may be interested in him and what it means for their rotation plans the rest of the way.

Finally, we get into the current roster moves and injuries involving Will Brennan, Darren McCaughan, Jose Tena, and Xzavion Curry, as well as Gavin Williams' most recent (and final) rehab start.

And, there's a new mock draft from MLB Pipeline, so we quickly digest what their breakdown means and where things sit.
