Travis Bazzana, the Guardians’ No.1 prospect, left Triple-A Columbus with left oblique soreness after an earlier IL stint. In 84 minor-league games this year, he’s hit .245/.389/.424 with nine homers and 39 RBIs across three levels, and he’s drawn 29 walks for a .420 OBP in limited Triple-A action. Drafted No.1 in 2024 from Oregon State, he posted a historic college season (.407/.568/.911, 28 HR) and earned Cape Cod MVP honors. Cleveland envisions him as a future 2B or CF, especially after trading Andres Giménez; health remains the key to unlocking a major league timeline.
