Dominic Nuñez: Breaking News

Returns to Cleveland as NRI

The Guardians re-signed Nunez to a minor-league contract Wednesday that includes an invitation to spring training. Nunez went 2-for-7 at the plate during his brief time with the Guardians in 2025 and slashed .176/.330/.349 at Triple-A Columbus. He's likely headed back to Columbus to begin the 2026 season.

Hits open market

Nunez was outrighted to Triple-A Columbus and elected free agency Thursday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports. Nunez had a very brief stint in the majors in early June, but he otherwise spent his season in Columbus. He could get a minor-league deal elsewhere this winter.

Optioned to Triple-A

The Guardians optioned Nunez to Triple-A Columbus on Thursday. The Guardians haven't announced a corresponding move, but sending Nunez down suggests Austin Hedges (concussion) will be ready to return when first eligible Friday. Nunez drew two starts and went 2-for-7 at the plate during his brief time with the big club.
