Shane Bieber's return date remains uncertain for Guardians
Shane Bieber is recovering from Tommy John surgery and has completed six bullpen sessions during spring training. However, there is no set date for his return to pitching, with estimates suggesting he may return after or before the All-Star break. The Guardians are evaluating their second base position, with Gabriel Arias likely to take the lead. Other players, including Tyler Freeman and Daniel Schneemann, may also share time at the position. Luis Ortiz has struggled in spring training, posting an 0-3 record with a 12.66 ERA. Despite concerns about his performance, the team is focused on individual player development during this period.
