Cleveland is about to sign a long-term contract extension with Andres Jimenez.
The Cleveland Guardians of the American Major League are about to sign a contract extension of up to eight years with second baseman Jimenez.

Jimenez is a rookie second baseman who appeared온라인바카라 like a comet last season. He joined the New York Mets in 2020, and immediately transferred to Cleveland in 2021, going back and forth between the major and minor leagues. And he exploded his potential last season.
