Guardians News and Notes: Awaiting Word on Shane Bieber
News and Notes for Friday, June 6th, 2025
Yesterday was not able great day for Guardians fans.
The Guardians got shutout by the Yankees. And we got word that Shane Bieber won't make his start tomorrow at Akron because he's having elbow pain.
Shane Bieber will not start Friday for Akron. He reported soreness after throwing a bullpen session the other day. He met with team doctors and will consult with Dr. Keith Meister to figure out what’s next.

Now, the Athletic's Zack Meisel said that the consult is over the phone so hopefully it's expected soreness and not getting told to come in for x-rays.
George Valera also got pulled in Columbus which stinks. Who knows why.
Angel Genao and Erik Sabrowski will be back in Akron today, so that's something.
Jhonkensy Noel has a wRC+ of 8. He cannot be in the big leagues by tonight.
AROUND MLB:
The Tigers lost to the White Sox, the Twins lost to the Athletics (and lost Pablo Lopez for 2-3 months to injury), and the Royals beat the Cardinals.
