The Cleveland Guardians, known for their strategic approach to free agency, are set to continue their careful strategy this winter. Last season, they overcame a significant deficit despite a weak offense. Looking back at their previous moves, theyve signed familiar players like Austin Hedges and Shane Bieber, who later was traded to Toronto and helped them reach the World Series. Other signings, like Carlos Santana and Paul Sewald, had mixed results. The team currently has $40.3 million committed to six players for 2026, with top-tier free agents unlikely to join due to budget constraints. However, they may target budget-friendly hitters or make trades to improve the roster.

Despite an injury-shortened 2022 season, Murakami still hit twenty-two home runs, showcasing his resilience and potential for long-term impact. The Guardians, who ranked twentieth in home runs last year, could benefit from Murakamis power to complement their strong pitching staff.
