Who is the Cleveland Guardians probable starting pitcher?

Ben Lively has been designated as Monday's starter for the Cleveland Guardians against the visiting Chicago Cubs. Lively is coming off a start that saw him give up more than three runs for just the third time this season. The Guardians will be hoping for Lively to pitch as he has more often than not this season, rather than see him give up four or more runs again.

Who will the Cleveland Guardians lineup face?

Shota Imanaga gets the call for the Cubs and has been impressive in his first season in the majors. The 30-year-old has a 3.06 ERA, 1.054 WHIP, and 9.3 strikeouts per nine innings in 21 starts this year. Imanaga has managed to hold opponents to two runs or less in 15 of his outings this year, showcasing his ability to shut down some of the best teams in baseball. As intimidating as that sounds, Imanaga is not unhittable by any means, having given up seven runs in 4.1 innings against Milwaukee in May while the Mets scored 10 runs in 3 innings in June. It's been a while since Imanaga has been roughed up, perhaps the Guardians are the next team to score in bunches against him.
