Cleveland Guardians' Historic Comeback Ignites Chase DeLauter's Postseason Debut
The Guardians' improbable run to the playoffs has catapulted top prospect Chase DeLauter into the national spotlight. The 23-year-old outfielder will make his highly anticipated major league debut in the postseason.
"It would be an absolute dream come true" to make his debut in the postseason, DeLauter expressed. The team's manager, Stephen Vogt, acknowledged the need for additional depth in the outfield, citing DeLauter as the best bat available.
DeLauter will start in center field and bat seventh in the order, as the Guardians face the Detroit Tigers in the Wild Card series. The team's historic comeback to the playoffs has opened doors for DeLauter, who has overcome injuries and a stint in the Arizona Fall League to reach the big leagues.
