Cleveland Guardians release three minor league players during their Boston Red Sox series. The Guardians are currently leading the AL Central Division. Carter Spivey, a 27-year-old pitcher, Wes Burton, a 26-year-old tall right-handed hurler, and Kyle Dernedde, a 26-year-old shortstop, were all released by the Akron RubberDucks. Spivey last played in 2025, before being placed on the full-season injured list in March 2026.
Burton played for two of the Guardians' minor league affiliates, logging eight pitching appearances and recording 11 strikeouts. Dernedde appeared in just one game, getting struck out twice and walking once. These moves do not appear to be significant losses for the Guardians, who will need to defeat the Red Sox to secure a playoff spot.
