Rays Shake Up ALCS Roster, Shut Down McClanahan As Guardians Add Slade Cecconi

Shane McClanahan won’t pitch in the postseason — after Tommy John and a nerve issue kept him out two years he returned strong and is being praised as a Comeback Player of the Year candidate, but the Rays are ending his season to keep him healthy.
Tampa added rookie right-hander Brody Hopkins to the ALCS roster and dropped lefty Garrett Cleavinger.
The Guardians added Slade Cecconi to their roster — Game 1 of the ALCS is Monday in Tampa, setting up a showdown of veterans and young arms.
