According to the club, bench coach DeMarlo Hale will take over as acting manager for the foreseeable future.

This announcement is a bit concerning for Francona, as he missed 63 games following a knee replacement surgery last season. He was also only on the bench for only 14 games in 2020 for gastrointestinal issues.

The Guardians have had an up-and-down start to the season. They’re currently in third place in the AL Central, with an even record of 15-15.
