Cantillo takes on the Reds in the Battle for Ohio

Today's Overview/Schedule/Weather: We have 15 games on tap, starting with the Mariners and Astros at 2:10 pmEST. Some major storms are approaching the East Coast, so watch potential postponements. We have some strong pitching on today’s slate, supported by one game total of nine runs or higher in Coors Field. 

 

Notable Starts:

Joey Cantillo has been great since rejoining the Guardians rotation for the injured Alex Cobb. Over the three starts since his return, he has allowed two earned runs over 16.1 innings pitched with 22 strikeouts and a 30% K-BB. Cantillo shares the top matchups rating today, taking on a Reds team that has struck out 24.9% of the time versus LHP over the past month while hitting .190 with a 48 wRC+.
