Franco Aleman, a 25-year-old right-hander, underwent surgery to repair a left hip inguinal hernia, sidelining him for four to six weeks and resulting in his absence for the rest of spring training. Aleman, who has transitioned from starter to bullpen role, had a commendable 2.78 ERA over 77 2/3 innings last season. While his recovery may delay his major league debut, Cleveland's strong bullpen presence, which excelled in 2024, is expected to absorb his absence without major issues.
Franco Aleman underwent hip hernia repair, sidelining him for 4-6 weeks and impacting his availability as Cleveland's bullpen depth remains strong overall.
