## Resource

The Guardians face a pivotal moment as key players Chase DeLauter and Angel Martínez sit out crucial games against the White Sox, both dealing with minor but nagging injuries—DeLauter’s wrist soreness and Martínez’s flank inflammation. Manager Stephen Vogt is carefully managing their return on a day-to-day basis, balancing short-term team needs with long-term player health. With Cleveland locked in a tight division race and still clinging to a wild card spot, missing this series could derail their playoff push. Both players showed signs of discomfort during Monday’s game, and while no serious damage is suspected, their absence adds pressure as the Guardians navigate tough decisions to stay competitive without risking bigger setbacks.
