Injuries & Moves: Cobb replaced on ALCS roster
Oct. 14: RHP Pedro Avila added, INF/OF Angel Martínez removed from ALCS rosterWith a seven-game series, the Guardians knew they wanted a 13th pitcher on their ALCS roster. It was between Avila, Ben Lively and Nick Sandlin, but because of the versatility that Avila can provide, he was the team’s choice to round out the bullpen. In order to have 13 pitchers, Cleveland left off Martínez, who replaced an injured Tyler Freeman in the ALDS.
