    Cleveland Guardians center fielder Myles Straw sent to minors, team still expects him to impact 2024 season

    The center fielder was assigned outright to Triple-A Columbus after being waived last week by Cleveland. The move was posted by Major League Baseball on his transaction list Tuesday night after days of unclarity. Straw, acquired by Cleveland in a 2021 trade from Houston, met last weekend with Chris Antonetti, the team's president of baseball operations, to make sure he understood he's still part of the team's plans. As a player with at least three years of major league service, Straw had the right to refuse the assignment and elect to become a free agent.
