Who is the Cleveland Guardians probable starting pitcher?

Gavin Williams has been tabbed to start the first of four games for the Cleveland Guardians as they take on the visiting Tampa Bay Rays. Cleveland is coming off a three-game sweep of the Chicago White Sox and are looking to extend their current win streak.

Williams will be looking to improve upon his last outing, a start which can be described as the worst in his major league career. Giving up five runs on two hits and three walks to the Los Angeles Dodgers while failing to get out of the 1st inning is a pretty rough look. On the other hand, it will not take much from Williams to be better than that, and he should easily outperform last Saturday's start rather quickly.

Who will the Cleveland Guardians lineup face?

Ryan Pepiot will be taking the mound for the Tampa Bay Rays in Thursday night's contest as they look to play spoiler. The Rays are pretty much out of the playoff hunt and will be hoping to disrupt any team on the edge's postseason hopes, a distinction that does not belong to the first-place Cleveland Guardians.

Pepiot has faced Cleveland once this season, holding the Guardians to two hits and zero runs in 6 innings of work. Cleveland will be hoping for a better offensive performance this time out as they look to build their lead in the American League Central.
