7/11/25 Guardians' Emmanuel Clase Linked to National League Contender. Emmanuel Clase has been the Cleveland Guardians' closer for the last four seasons, but as the team slips out of playoff contention, they could be incentivized to move him to help round out the big league roster. One team that could be an interesting contender to land the three-time All-Star is the Philadelphia Phillies. Tim Kelly of Bleacher Report believes that a deal between the Guardians and Phillies centered around Clase is a "realistic" trade leading up to the deadline. Obviously, Philadelphia landing Clase from Cleveland would make it a World Series contender.

7/11/25 MACK - MY Friday Observations - Draft Coverage, Emmanuel Clase, Robert Cotter, Will Watson, Sandy Alcantara, Eugenio Suárez, Wilyer Abreu, Jhoan Duran. Clase's name kept coming up in the survey, which surprised me as he's considered one of the top closers in the game. Clase, 27, has a 3.28 ERA over 37 appearances and 18 saves this year. 11-year-old Robert Cotter caught a foul ball one day at a Philadelphia Phillies game and, like any fan, refused to give it back – even when team officials demanded. Cotter was forced to spend an entire night in jail until being freed the next day when a sympathetic judge found that it was “entirely reasonable” that a kid could keep a foul ball at a baseball game.

7/10/25 Guardians Could Trade All-Star for Top Yankees' Prospect.

7/09/25 Cleveland closer named as possible target for Red Sox. The Guardians' recent slide has put them in a position they do not want to be at. While Cleveland is 5.5 games out of the final wild card spot, its recent 10-game losing streak has put itself in a position where the Guardians may have stronger reason to sell before this month's trade deadline. At 42-48, the season is not over for Cleveland, but it is in a much worse position than it was at not even two weeks ago. If the Guardians do decide to sell at the July 31 trade deadline, one of the players they could trade is closing pitcher Emmanuel Clase.

7/09/25 Cleveland Guardians Linked to Blockbuster Trade With Atlanta Braves. The Cleveland Guardians' losing streak is over, but that does not mean they are suddenly going to become buyers before the MLB trade deadline. The Guardians have gone just 13-26 over their last 39 games, falling further and further out of Wild Card contention in the American League. With the July 31 deadline approaching, it seems rather likely that Cleveland will sell, and closer Emmanuel Clase could be on the move. The Athletic listed Clase fourth on their trade big board this week and connected him to a rather intriguing team in a potential trade: the Atlanta Braves.

7/08/25 Yankees, Guardians Linked to Blockbuster All-Star Trade With Deadline Looming. The Cleveland Guardians finally ended their 10-game losing streak on Monday night, but that does not mean they have suddenly flipped a switch. The fact of the matter is that the Guardians are just 41-48 and are falling further and further out of playoff contention in the American League, and they have gone just 12-26 oveir their last 38 games. Chances are, Cleveland may sell off some pieces before the MLB trade deadline, and perhaps the the club's most enticing trade asset is closer Emmanuel Clase. The New York Yankees suddenly find themselves in need of a relief pitcher after a bunch of recent bullpen meltdowns, so it should not come as a surprise that Russell Dorsey of Yahoo Sports has listed the Yankees as a potential trade destination for Clase.

7/08/25 Insider Reveals Potential Trade Package for Guardians' Emmanuel Clase. The Cleveland Guardians are floundering, and the deeper they get into the season, the clearer it becomes that they are absolutely not legitimate contenders. It stands to reason that the Guardians could actually become sellers between now and the MLB trade deadline, and they definitely have some pieces other teams would desire. Perhaps one of Cleveland's most attractive trade chips is closer Emmanuel Clase, who has bounced back after a forgettable start to the regular season. Clase is under team control on a wildly cheap contract through 2028.

7/06/25 Guardians' losing streak hits 10 as Tigers complete sweep by handing Cleveland a 7-2 defeat. The Guardians found another painful way to extend their season-high losing streak Sunday, falling 7-2 to the Detroit Tigers in 10 innings after a wild pitch from closer Emmanuel Clase allowed the tying run to score in the ninth.

7/02/25 MLB Execs Reveal Surprising Trade Outlook for Guardians' Emmanuel Clase. The Cleveland Guardians are falling further and further into obscurity this season, as a miserable stretch over the last month-plus has dropped them out of an American League Wild Card spot. Now, the Guardians must decide whether or not they are going to buy or sell before the MLB trade deadline, and based on the history of the franchise, the latter is a distinct possibility. If Cleveland does decide to move some pieces between now and July 31, closer Emmanuel Clase could be someone the Guardians shop, and Jim Bowden of The Athletic has revealed executives around baseball think the three-time All-Star could get dealt in the coming weeks. "Clase's name kept coming up in the survey, which surprised me as he's considered one of the top closers in the game," Bowden wrote.

6/28/25 Cleveland Guardians Elite Closer Mentioned In Trade Rumors. The Cleveland Guardians approach the midway point of their season with a 40-40 record, putting them in an uncertain position. With a couple moves at the trade deadline – like a bat or two to boost a lineup that ranks 25th in MLB in runs per game – it wouldn't take much for the Guardians to get back in playoff position for the seventh time in the last 10 years. The pitching staff could use some help, too, but they're not far off as a team. Perhaps the most difficult decision they'll have to make is whether to keep or trade star closer Emmanuel Clase.

6/27/25 Dodgers Named 'Best Fit' For $20 Million All-Star Closer in Potential Blockbuster Trade. Cleveland Guardians closer Emmanuel Clase has a 20 percent chance of being traded before the MLB deadline, according to ESPN's Jeff Passan, and the Los Angeles Dodgers are among the top landing spots for the All-Star. Clase made All-Star appearances in every year from 2022-24, leading MLB in saves in 2022 and 2023 while leading the American League with a career-high 47 saves in 2024. The closer placed third in AL Cy Young voting for his electric 2024 season, where he boasted a 0.61 ERA through 74 appearances, allowing just five runs. Clase has performed well during 2025, however, his 3.38 ERA is the highest of his career.

6/27/25 Blockbuster Guardians Trade Proposal Sends Perennial All-Star to Dodgers. The Cleveland Guardians are continuing to slide, as they are now just 40-39 after losing two out of three to the Toronto Blue Jays. The more the Guardians falter, the more likely it will be that they will become sellers before the MLB trade deadline, and there is one name you are probably going to hear quite a bit if Cleveland does go in that direction: Emmanuel Clase. Clase got off to a horrendous start this season, but he has since bounced back nicely and now owns a respectable 3.38 ERA.
