Guardians’ injury updates & roster moves

LHP Sam Hentges (left shoulder injury)Expected return: 2026After spending parts of August and September getting a handful of opinions from different doctors, Hentges determined that the best route was surgery. He was scheduled to repair an injury to his left capsule and labrum on Sept. 18 and the recovery window is expected to be 12-14 months, which likely means he’ll miss all of the 2025 season.
