Seattle Poised for Dramatic Turnaround Against Guardians—Will History Repeat or Rewrite Tonight?
The Guardians are above .500 once again, but it is only good enough for third in the AL Central. This division has four genuine contenders in the running for a playoff spot long term. The Guardians have one guy on the roster who is a superstar, but the rest of the team is made up of contact hitters and just good baseball players. I’m not sitting here saying that they are full of crappy players or anything, but you aren’t picking most of them to be on your fantasy team or even to replace a lot of guys on your favorite team. They do find ways to win, though, which is the most important part of it all. Gavin Williams takes the ball for them tonight with a 5-3 record, a 3.86 ERA, and a 1.42 WHIP. He has been a bit worse on the road with an ERA about a full run higher, but it is in fewer starts. He has made back-to-back quality starts this month and in three of his past five games. He has only faced three different Mariners in his career, but held them to zero hits in 13 at-bats.
