CHICAGO — For a microcosm of the state of the Cleveland Guardians offense, look no further than the eighth inning Tuesday at Rate Field.Rhys Hoskins, the cleanup hitter with a .662 OPS, drew a two-out walk with the Guardians trailing the Chicago White Sox 2-1. Up stepped Stuart Fairchild, whose bat has been social distancing from baseballs since he arrived in Cleveland. He pinch hit for Daniel Schneemann, who totes the league’s lowest OPS (.425) since May 1.Hoskins ranks 448th in sprint speed, but the Guardians didn’t pinch run for him because their only options were Patrick Bailey, who ranks 440th, and Gabriel Arias, who didn’t bother to run to first with the bases loaded on a dropped third strike — his first of five strikeouts in the game — Monday. The lack of hustle earned Arias a talking-to from manager Stephen Vogt, who declined to delve into the specifics of the conversation but conveyed he was less than thrilled.Fairchild watched a fastball sail through the heart of the zone for a third strike and the third out; he’s now 3-for-19 with 14 strikeouts (and, to his credit, seven walks). The Guardians went quietly into the night and secured a series loss in each stop along their three-city trip.Why MLB's draft proposal would be bad for baseball's futureKeith LawThis is life as José Ramírez, Chase DeLauter and Angel Martínez heal from a fractured hamate bone, a fractured rib and a fractured foot, respectively, though it’s imperative to point out that Cleveland’s lineup was slumping for weeks before the trio landed on the injured list. Vogt is left trying to find production in the rubble. It’s not going well.“I think we’re playing the guys that we want to play,” he said, “and I think we’re matching up when we need to, or when we have to, but we have to trust all 13, like we are, and (we’re) figuring it out. But we’re just not getting anything going right now. And it’s tough.”
