Part 3/7:
In a notable year prior, Boyd encountered significant setbacks due to a torn flexor tendon in 2021, followed by undergoing Tommy John surgery for a UCL injury in 2023. Subsequently, Boyd found himself without a team during the summer but latched onto the Cleveland Guardians, where he quickly became an asset to their rotation. Over the span of eight starts, Boyd maintained an impressive 2.72 ERA, managing to strike out 27.7% of batters and effectively curbing the home runs that had previously plagued him.
