Ben Lively Gets MLB deal from Guardians

Lively signed a one-year, $750,000 contract with the Guardians on Tuesday.

Analysis: The 31-year-old right-hander receives a major-league deal from Cleveland after collecting a 5.38 ERA and 79:25 K:BB over 88.2 innings with the Reds in 2023. Currently, there wouldn't appear to be room for Lively in the Guardians' rotation. However, it's possible a spot could open up if the club winds up trading Shane Bieber or someone else. More likely, perhaps, is that Lively operates as a long reliever or swingman.

Ben Lively Hits free agency

Lively elected to become a free agent Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Analysis: Lively was removed from the Reds' 40-man roster last month after struggling to a 5.38 ERA over 88.2 innings (12 starts, seven relief appearances) during the 2023 campaign. The 31-year-old right-hander may have to settle for a minor-league contract on the open market this winter.
