Guardians designated OF George Valera for assignment.

The Guardians needed to clear a spot on their 40-man roster for the return of Gabriel Arias on Sunday and unfortunately it looks like Valera drew the short straw this time around. The 25-year-old outfielder has hit just .216/.237/.297 with no homers and six RBI in 38 plate appearances with the Guardians this season. It’s possible that he could pique another team’s interest on waivers.
