Who is the Cleveland Guardians probable starting pitcher?

The Cleveland Guardians have tabbed Carlos Carrasco as their starter for their first game with the Tampa Bay Rays. Carrasco has been pretty consistent as of late, allowing three runs or fewer in each of his last four starts. This comes after an inconsistent stretch where Carrasco gave up five runs in two out of three starts to begin the month of June. Seeing Carrasco settle back in has allowed the Guardians to win three of his last four starts.

Only a few members of the Rays have faced Carrasco previously, and they have mostly been successful in those matchups. Brandon Lowe leads the way with a 4-8 line against Cookie, all four hits going for extrabases (two home runs, one triple, and one double). Issac Paredes (2-4) and Amed Rosario (2-3) have also recorded multiple hits against Carrasco, while Alex Jackson has a double in two at-bats.

Who will the Cleveland Guardians lineup face?

Tampa Bay will counter with Taj Bradley for Friday night's contest. Back on June 1st, Bradley was knocked around by the Baltimore Orioles to the tune of nine runs on nine hits in 3.1 innings, far from an ideal outing. Since then, Bradley has not allowed more than two runs in any start. With how locked in he has been on the mound, it will be a tough task for the Guardians to solve the 23-year-old right-hander.
