The Guardians list DeLauter (hamstring) as one the organization's eight prospects on the Surprise Saguaros' Arizona Fall League roster.
DeLauter finished the 2024 season on Triple-A Columbus' 7-day injured list with a right hamstring strain, but the expectation is that he'll be ready to play when Fall League play opens Oct. 7. In addition to the hamstring strain, injuries to both of DeLauter's feet limited him to just 159 plate appearances between Columbus and Double-A Akron in 2024. The assignment to the Fall League will afford DeLauter the opportunity to get some more competitive at-bats in before spring training.
