Who is the Cleveland Guardians probable starting pitcher?

Gavin Williams draws the start for the first of three games set to take place between the Cleveland Guardians and the visiting Philadelphia Phillies. Cleveland has won three straight series and are looking to make it a fourth with a successful weekend of baseball against Philly.

Williams has been very inconsistent this season, and that has caused some problems early on. The right-hander can go from shutting down the New York Yankees in one start and then getting lit up by the Minnesota Twins in the next. Finding some level of consistency over multiple starts would go a long way for Williams and the Guardians, with Friday presenting the perfect opportunity for him to start.

Who will the Cleveland Guardians lineup face?

Philadelphia will have Aaron Nola start Friday night's matchup in Cleveland, and he is looking to continue his strong performance from his last two outings. Nola has allowed just one run on seven hits with 14 strikeouts and two walks in 13 innings of work against the Chicago Cubs and Arizona Diamondbacks.

It sure seems like the Guardians are going to have a tough time attempting to solve Nola, but luckily, there is a track record of success for a few of Cleveland's batters. Carlos Santana is 2-4 with a double and a home run, Steven Kwan is 3-3 with a home run, and Austin Hedges is 2-8.
