Cleveland Guardians Probable Pitcher and Starting Lineup vs Minnesota Twins May 1

Who is the Cleveland Guardians probable starting pitcher?

The Cleveland Guardians have bounced back after an embarrassing series-opening loss and have rattled off two straight wins over the visiting Minnesota Twins. With a series split in hand, the Guardians will be looking to secure a series win over Minnesota and will be doing so with veteran Ben Lively on the mound.

Lively has alternated between allowing four and zero runs over his last five starts, with shutouts of the Chicago White Sox and Pittsburgh Pirates being sandwiched between allowing four runs to the San Diego Padres, Kansas City Royals, and Boston Red Sox. If this pattern were to continue, Lively should be in for a productive start against Minnesota on Thursday afternoon.

Who will the Cleveland Guardians lineup face?

Simeon Woods Richardson will start for the Twins, as they look to avoid losing the series to the Guardians. Wood Richardson has allowed 11 runs on 29 hits and six walks in 24.1 innings across five starts this season.

Kyle Manzardo (2-2), Steven Kwan (1-3), Bo Naylor (1-4), and Brayan Rocchio (1-1) are the only Cleveland batters who have recorded hits against Woods Richardson previously, with Manzardo, Kwan, and Naylor all homering off of the 24-year-old right-hander.
