The Cleveland Guardians made significant moves on Tuesday night, executing multiple trades before midnight. The highlight was sending Andres Gimenez to the Toronto Blue Jays, which allowed them to acquire Spencer Horwitz.

Horwitz was then traded to the Pittsburgh Pirates for Luis Ortiz and two pitching prospects. General Manager Mike Chernoff explained that while the trades were separate, they strategically aimed to enhance the team's pitching staff, addressing a critical need in their lineup.
