The Cleveland Guardians have altered their ALDS roster ahead of Game 2, replacing utility man Tyler Freeman with outfielder Angel Martínez due to Freeman's oblique injury sustained in a simulated game.

Freeman, who cannot play in the next round if the Guardians advance, had a challenging season, while Martínez, who debuted in June, has shown promise as a reliable bench option. The Guardians won Game 1 against the Detroit Tigers and are looking to secure their first ALCS appearance since 2016.
