Opening-day starter Tanner Bibee signs 5-year contract with the Cleveland Guardians
CLEVELAND (AP) — Right-hander Tanner Bibee has signed a five-year contract with the Cleveland Guardians.
The team announced the deal on Saturday. It includes a club option for 2030.
Bibee will get his first opening-day assignment on Thursday at Kansas City. He went 12-8 with a 3.47 ERA last season, finishing with 12 quality starts in 31 outings and 187 strikeouts in 173 2/3 innings.
The 26-year-old California native was 0-1 with a 3.45 ERA in four postseason starts last year.
Bibee had 10 wins during his rookie season in 2023 and was second in AL Rookie of the Year voting. He is the third Cleveland pitcher since 2000 with at least 10 wins in each of his first two seasons in the big leagues. Hall of Famer CC Sabathia (2001-02) and Shane Bieber (2018-19) are the others.
Cleveland selected Bibee in the fifth round of the 2021 amateur draft. He will anchor a young rotation this season that will be missing Bieber for at least the first half as he continues to work his way back from Tommy John surgery on his right elbow.
