The Guardians and the White Sox have been disciplined for
their wild brawl on Saturday night, Gavin Williams showed
everybody why he's the team's top prospect in the opener
against the Blue Jays. And Cal Quattro may be
nearing his return to the rotation. I'm Andy Bell
and this is the beat report. The benches cleared
on Saturday night in Cleveland after Tim Anderson and Jose
Ramirez squared up at second base after their one on
one altercation, multiple more fights broke out across the
field resulting in four guardians ejections. The team learned
on Monday that Ramirez received a three game suspension.
Guardians manager Terry Francona closer Manuel Clause and third base
coach Mike SBA all received a one game suspension and
Gabriel Arias was fined. Ramirez will appeal his suspension
and he can continue to play until the final verdict
is made Francona and Clause serve their one game on
Monday and Srba will do so on Tuesday, no
rookie pitcher in Cleveland history has ever had a night
like Gavin Williams did on Monday, Williams became the
first rookie to have at least 12 strikeouts while allowing
one or fewer hits in a single outing the last
time any rookie pitcher for Cleveland had at least 12
strikeouts was Luis Tiant on August 18th, 1964 against
Kansas City. Williams threw seven scoreless innings and gave
up just one walk as he continues to prove why
he was ranked the team's top prospect by MLB pipeline
. Coming into the year. A performance like Gavin
Williams had on Monday certainly makes it a little bit
easier for the Guardians to feel comfortable not rushing starter
Caltro back into the rotation, which has been their
goal since he landed back on the IL on July
6 with right shoulder inflammation after he threw to live
hitters last week in Akron Quan has been cleared to
begin his rehab assignment. He will start for AAA
Columbus on Wednesday and he'll throw about 50 or 60
pitches. It's likely that he'll need a couple of
starts before he's back in the big league rotation and
that'll do it for the beat report for all your
Guardians news. Be sure to check cle Guardians dot
