Kwan was scratched from Friday's lineup against the Rays due to body fatigue, Joe Noga of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kwan's removal from Friday's lineup appears to be a precautionary measure, and the 27-year-old outfielder could return Saturday. Daniel Schneemann took Kwan's spot in left field and in the leadoff spot for Friday's contest. Since Aug. 1, Kwan is slashing .197/.322/.265 with six stolen bases, two home runs and 13 RBI over 161 plate appearances.

Kwan (undisclosed) was scratched from Friday's lineup against the Rays, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kwan was slated to start in left field Friday, but he has been replaced by Daniel Schneemann. A reason for Kwan's removal from the lineup has yet to be provided. Kwan is in the midst of a four-game hitting streak, going 5-for-13 with six walks and five runs scored over that span.

Kwan went 1-for-3 with two walks, a stolen base and two runs scored in Monday's 5-3 win over the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Kwan began September just 1-for-23 over six games before receiving an off day Sunday. It appears to have served him well after he got on base three times. The outfielder is now at a .288/.359/.419 slash line with 13 home runs, 12 steals, 43 RBI and 78 runs scored over 117 contests as Cleveland's leadoff hitter.

Kwan went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Thursday's 6-0 loss to the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
Kwan led off the game with a single, but that was the Guardians' lone hit of the contest. Prior to Thursday, Kwan had gone just 1-for-20 over his last five games, though the Guardians have struggled in general during their road trip with stops in Milwaukee and New York. The outfielder is up to 11 steals on 15 attempts while slashing .310/.371/.457 through 101 contests this season.

Kwan went 0-for-4 with three walks, a stolen base and one run scored in Tuesday's 9-5 extra-innings win over the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
Kwan was held hitless for the fourth time in six games, which has put a damper on his usually-elite on-base numbers. In August, he's batting .221 (15-for-68) with 11 walks and four steals over 18 contests. The outfielder is now at a .313/.375/.462 slash line with 13 home runs, 10 steals, 36 RBI and 71 runs scored across 99 games this season. With only modest contributions outside of batting average and runs, he's tough to keep in fantasy lineups when he's in a slump.

Kwan went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run, two walks and two total runs scored in Monday's 9-8 win over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Kwan has homered twice over the last three games, adding four RBI and three runs scored in that span. The outfielder is batting .279 (12-for-43) over 12 contests in August after hitting just .250 in July. He's still not back to where he was early in the season, but he's not in a slump either. For the year, he's at a .326/.386/.485 slash line with 13 homers, 36 RBI, 69 runs scored and nine stolen bases through 93 contests.

Kwan went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday in a 2-1 win against Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
It looked like the game could be headed for plenty of scoring when Kwan led off the contest with a solo shot, but that ended up being one of just three runs produced in the matchup. The long ball was Kwan's 12th of the campaign through 91 games, which doubles his previous season high of six set across 147 contests in 2022. In addition to the increased power, Kwan has also shown improvement in his ability to rack up hits -- he ranks second in the majors with a .326 batting average after hitting just .268 last season.

Kwan is out of the lineup for the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Kwan had been in line to receive a day off Tuesday, but that game was ultimately postponed due to inclement weather. The 26-year-old will now get the chance to rest up for the second game of the twin bill after he occupied his usual spot atop the lineup and in left field in the Guardians' 7-3 loss earlier in the day, going 1-for-4 with a run scored. Angel Martinez will check in for Kwan in left field.
