Now Naquin will attempt to follow the path of former Guardians relief pitcher Anthony Gose, who played five seasons as an outfielder for Toronto and Detroit before converting to a role as a relief pitcher in the Cleveland organization.

Tyler Naquin is back in the Guardians organization, and he is going to try his hand (and arm) at a new position. The 33-year-old has signed a Minor League deal with Cleveland, and he will report to Minor League camp as a pitcher.
