Guardians Acquire Lane Thomas and Alex Cobb

News summary

The Cleveland Guardians have been active ahead of the MLB trade deadline, acquiring right-hander Alex Cobb from the San Francisco Giants and outfielder Lane Thomas from the Washington Nationals. Cobb, recovering from hip surgery and shoulder issues, has yet to make his season debut but is expected to bolster the Guardians' pitching staff. In exchange for Cobb, the Guardians sent minor league pitcher Jacob Bresnahan and a player to be named later to the Giants. Lane Thomas, known for his power and speed, was acquired to address Cleveland's offensive struggles, leading to the optioning of Will Brennan to Triple-A Columbus. These moves came as Cleveland aims to solidify its lead in the AL Central, highlighted by a recent 5-0 victory over the Detroit Tigers, featuring strong performances from José Ramírez and Gavin Williams.
