The Cleveland Guardians made significant roster changes on November seventh, declining a six-million-dollar club option for pitcher John Means and outrighting five other players to Triple-A Columbus, who became free agents. Means, recovering from Tommy John surgery, didnt pitch for the team this season. The Guardians activated three players from the injured list, bringing their forty-man roster to thirty-seven. The team didnt have room for Means in their rotation after switching to a six-man pitching staff, leading to his release. The Guardians strong performance in the final twenty-five games of the season, with their six starters combining for a two-point-one-six earned run average, contributed to their historic comeback and clinching the American League Central division title.
