Cleared for game action
Valera (calf) played in a minor-league spring training game Monday, Guardians Prospective reports.
Análisis
Valera will begin the 2026 campaign on the injured list, but the fact that he's already been cleared to appear in a game is a sign that he could be activated shortly after the season begins. He'll likely need to appear in at least a few more exhibitions before the club considers bringing him back from the IL.

Expected to start season on IL
Valera (calf) is highly likely to start the regular season on the injured list, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.
Análisis
Valera has been dealing with a strained left calf since early March, and it looks like the issue will put him on the sidelines to start the regular season. The 25-year-old had been competing with the likes of Chase DeLauter and CJ Kayfus for a starting spot in the Cleveland outfield.

Adds running to rehab
Valera (calf) began running Tuesday as part of his activity, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
Análisis
Valera had begun throwing and hitting earlier in the week, and the Guardians are hopeful he can return to game action in the coming days. Based on the calendar, there is some question whether Valera will be ready to go by Opening Day. Cleveland's outfield picture is unclear beyond Steven Kwan, and Valera is one of seven outfielders competing for three or four spots.
