You see, in game one of the Cleveland Guardians' doubleheader on Saturday in Kansas City, the star closer came in with a one-run lead in the bottom of the 10th. But he gave up a two-run, walk-off homer to Jonathan India.

The Guardians selected Jace Laviolette with the No. 27 overall pick in the draft. According to Callis, Cleveland signed Laviolette with a $4 million signing bonus, nearly $700,000 above the slot value. This is a deal that makes it the Guardians’ largest over-slot deal.

Jose Ramirez is on the verge of joining a list of legends. The Cleveland Guardians superstar needs just one stolen base to join an exclusive club. Up to this point in MLB history, four players have reached at least 275 home runs and 275 stolen bases through their first 13 seasons: Barry Bonds, Bobby Bonds, Andre Dawson and Carlos Beltran.

The Guardians topped the list of bonus-over-value handed out for the first round of the 2025 MLB Draft. Compared to Jace Laviolette's slot value at pick No. 27 at $3.382 million, the Guardians went more over-slot than anyone in MLB this season. They handed Laviolette a $4 million signing bonus.

José Ramírez is one stolen base away from matching a career stat line only previously achieved by Carlos Beltran, Barry Bonds, Andre Dawson and Bobby Bonds.
