Guardians claim former Angels pitchers Giolito, López and Moore off waivers, sources tells AP

Still in the AL Central race, the Cleveland Guardians claimed starter Lucas Giolito and relievers Matt Moore and Reynaldo López off waivers from the Los Angeles Angels on Thursday, two people familiar with the roster moves told The Associated Press. The Guardians made the claims to help get them through the remainder of this season and perhaps for the future, said the sources who spoke on condition of anonymity because the team has not announced the acquistions. Cleveland has remained in contention — currently five games back of first-place Minnesota — despite a rash of injuries to its starting rotation.
