Clase struck out two in a perfect inning and earned a save over the Brewers on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Clase threw 10 of 14 pitches for strikes to retire Milwaukee's 2-3-4 hitters in order and finish off the 2-0 victory. He's converted nine of his 11 save chances this season, including five straight. Clase has tossed five consecutive scoreless innings as he's seemingly regained his usual form. He now owns a 4.91 ERA with a 19:4 K:BB through 18.1 frames.

Clase gave up a hit and struck out one in a scoreless ninth inning Wednesday to record his eighth save of the season in an 8-6 win over the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

After some early-season struggles, Clase appears to be regaining his usual form. The right-hander has converted four straight save chances, and he's given up just one earned run over his last six appearances with a 7:0 K:BB. He still has some work to do to dig out from the statistical hole he dug, however -- through 16.1 innings on the season, Clase carries a 5.51 ERA and 1.71 WHIP.

Clase earned the save in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Blue Jays, allowing one unearned run on one hit in the ninth inning. He struck out one.

EDGE Analysis

After Andres Gimenez reached on an error to start the ninth, Clase gave up a base hit to Bo Bichette, who'd eventually move to third on an Anthony Santander groundout. However, Clase stranded him there, striking out George Springer to close out the one-run victory. It's been a shaky start to the year for the 27-year-old Clase, though he's been better recently, allowing just one earned run in his last five innings. His ERA now sits at 5.87 with a 1.76 WHIP and 15:3 K:BB across 15.1 innings this season.

Clase recorded his sixth save of the season Saturday, working a perfect ninth inning in a 5-3 win over the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

Two groundouts and a pop-up from the top of the Toronto order got the job done for Clase. It's his second straight successful save conversion after getting a brief break from ninth-inning duties in late April, but the right-hander is still looking to put together a lengthy stretch of effectiveness -- he has yet to go more than three straight appearances this season without giving up a run. Through 14.1 innings, he carries a 6.28 ERA, 1.81 WHIP and 14:3 K:BB.

Clase earned the save in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Twins, allowing one run on two hits while striking out three in the ninth inning. He did not issue a walk.

EDGE Analysis

Clase got the call for the ninth inning to protect a three-run lead. He struck out two of the first three batters faced, and after giving up a run on a wild pitch, fanned Kody Clemens to come away with the save. It was Clase's first save since April 19, but Wednesday marked the sixth time that he has given up at least one earned run in 14 outings this season. He's up to a 6.75 ERA, 1.95 WHIP and 14:3 K:BB across 13.1 innings in 2025 and will continue to split closing duties with Cade Smith.

Clase (4-0) allowed a hit in a scoreless ninth inning to earn the win Tuesday against the Twins. He did not strike out or walk a batter.

EDGE Analysis

It wasn't a save situation, but the right-hander was called upon for the top of the ninth inning of a 1-1 tie and was awarded the win after Kyle Manzardo clubbed a walk-off homer in the bottom of the frame. Cade Smith -- who has converted Cleveland's past three saves -- worked the eighth inning Tuesday, which is an indication that Clase is still firmly in the mix at closer. His 6.57 ERA and 1.95 WHIP for the campaign may mean that he and Smith split the role for a bit, but Clase has now delivered two straight scoreless outings after dealing with a bout of shoulder discomfort.

Clase (shoulder) tossed a scoreless eighth inning in Game 1 of the Guardians' doubleheader against the Red Sox on Saturday, striking out two batters without allowing a walk or a hit.

EDGE Analysis

Clase was experiencing right shoulder discomfort following his last outing against the Pirates on April 20. He was not used out of the Guardians' bullpen this past week, but he felt good enough to come in for the first game of Saturday's doubleheader, striking out the first two batters he faced before forcing a Blake Sabol ground out to record his first hold. It appears to be a temporary break from ninth-inning duties for Clase, with Guardians manager Stephen Vogt saying after Game 1 that Clase "will be back in that closer role... he was great," per Brian Dulik of The Associated Press. Clase has a 7.15 ERA, 2.03 WHIP, four saves and an 11:3 K:BB across 11.1 innings this season.

Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said Wednesday that Clase experienced some shoulder discomfort after his most recent appearance in Sunday's 5-4 extra-inning win over the Pirates, Tom Withers of the Associated Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

Clase came away with his third win but was charged with his second blown save of the season Sunday, giving up three earned runs on four hits and one walk before retiring the final batter of the ninth inning. The reliever had worked on three consecutive days over the weekend, so the Guardians' decision not to use him in save situations Monday and Tuesday against the Yankees in favor of Cade Smith was initially believed to be rest-related. With Vogt now disclosing that Clase is managing a shoulder issue, the right-hander's availability for Wednesday's series finale isn't known. Clase was able to play catch Wednesday, so for now, the shoulder injury isn't considered serious enough for the Guardians to shut him down from throwing.

Clase (3-0) blew the save but collected the win Sunday against the Pirates in a game that went 10 innings. He allowed three runs on four hits and one walk with no strikeouts over an inning.

EDGE Analysis

Entering on a streak of three consecutive scoreless outings and pitching on the third straight day, Clase unraveled in this appearance and picked up his second blown save. This game marked the Cleveland closer's second time allowing four hits in 2025 after going all of the 2024 regular season without one such instance. Clase's confounding start to the season continues, as he's now pitched to an abysmal 7.84 ERA, 2.23 WHIP and 9:3 K:BB across 10.1 innings.

Clase earned the save in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Pirates, allowing one hit in a scoreless ninth inning. He did issue a walk nor record a strikeout.

EDGE Analysis

Clase allowed a triple to Enmanuel Valdez to start the ninth inning, but the latter ended up being tagged out by Jose Ramirez after unsuccessfully calling for time. Clase needed only three pitches to retire the next two batters to capture his fourth save of the season. He has a 5.79 ERA, 1.93 WHIP and 9:2 K:BB across 9.1 innings to start the season.
