One might wonder if this announcement merits the designation “BREAKING” in capital letters. My response would be an unequivocal affirmative.

Coach Stephen Vogt informed journalists earlier that Steven Kwan is slated to practice in centerfield, as the Guardians are exploring optimal batting arrangements. This development holds significant implications due to multiple factors:
-Should Kwan establish himself as the team’s main centerfielder, it suggests Nolan Jones’s position on the roster is no longer assured.
-While Kwan has faced certain fitness concerns himself, it appeared unwise to designate Chase DeLauter as the principal centerfielder considering his frequent health setbacks.
-The most favorable outcome for the current lineup likely involves Valera positioned in left field, Kwan in center field, and DeLauter in right field, supported by Fairchild or Martinez as the reserve outfielder, with Juan Brito serving as a versatile player available for outfield duties if required.
This is something we’ve been advocating for over a long period. At present, there’s a real possibility of witnessing Steven Kwan playing centerfield. Furthermore, it presents an opportune moment to discuss a contract extension with Kwan. His capability to cover centerfield could justify a substantial new deal.
