The Cleveland Guardians have acquired veteran right-hander Alex Cobb from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for left-handed pitching prospect Jacob Bresnahan and a player to be named later. Cobb, who was an All-Star last season with a 3.87 ERA, has not pitched in 2024 due to multiple injuries, including hip surgery and a recent blister on his throwing hand. The Guardians, currently leading the AL Central, are looking to bolster their rotation, especially in light of injuries to key pitchers like Shane Bieber and Triston McKenzie. Meanwhile, the Giants, who are under .500 and appear to be transitioning towards a rebuild, are giving opportunities to younger players like Hayden Birdsong. This trade reflects both teams' strategic directions as the season progresses. Cleveland's management aims to enhance their October prospects with this acquisition.
