Guardians recall another hot-hitting prospect to join big league roster; OF heads to injured list
CLEVELAND, Ohio — On the heels of Jhonkensy Noel’s smashing debut Wednesday, the Guardians have recalled another hot-hitting prospect from Triple-A Columbus to join the major league roster. It’s a face already familiar to the big league crew.
Infielder José Tena, ranked as Cleveland’s No. 22 prospect by MLB Pipeline, will join the Guardians for their series opener in Kansas City tonight, a club source confirmed to cleveland.com. Outfielder Will Brennan has been placed on the 10-day injured list, according to the club.
Additionally, right-hander Darren McCaughan has been recalled from Columbus and righty Xzavion Curry has been optioned back to Triple-A.
Tena, 23, made his major league debut in August of 2023 and appeared in 18 games for the Guardians, batting .226 with 13 strikeouts in 34 plate appearances. But the Dominican native has been on a tear lately in Columbus, totaling six home runs and 23 RBI while batting .296 during the month of June.

Tena is slugging .480 with an .821 OPS in 73 games this season.
Fewer than 24 hours ago, Tena was in the Columbus clubhouse during a rain delay, celebrating with his teammates as Noel launched his first career big league home run into the bullpens at Camden Yards. Now, Tena will be back in Cleveland’s clubhouse as the Guardians take on Kansas City in an important American League Central Division matchup.
