Cleveland Guardians Promote Top Prospect Angel Genao to MLB Roster
The Cleveland Guardians have promoted highly-touted prospect Angel Genao to their Major League roster. Genao, rated as the team's No. 2 overall prospect and No. 39 overall in baseball, will join the Guardians ahead of their game against the New York Mets. The 22-year-old shortstop has spent the 2026 season split between Double-A Akron and Triple-A Columbus, batting .308 with 8 home runs, 17 doubles, 39 RBI's, and 9 stolen bases in 71 games at Triple-A. Genao's promotion comes as third baseman José Ramírez battles lingering soreness in his left wrist, leaving open the size of Genao's role immediately.18 sourcesSee all sources
