Series Preview: Guardians at Rays

One more series before the break. Thank God

The Guardians will have three more games before they get a break. Let's hope they haven't started their break early

Matchups:

Game one: Carlos Carrasco, RHP (4.92 FIP) vs. Taj Bradley, RHP (3.90 FIP) Friday at 6:50PM EST

Analysis: It's savvy vet vs savvy vet, here. Save us, Cookie, you're our only hope.

Game two: Gavin Williams, RHP (2.63 FIP) vs. Zach Littell, RHP (3.66 FIP), Saturday at 4:10PM EST

Analysis: oh hey look, the FIP advantage for once for starting pitchers. For once, Tampa's bullpen is very bad, 29th in MLB at 4.63 FIP. So, the Guardians need to get into that relief corps as soon as possible.

Game three: Ben Lively, RHP (4.40 FIP) vs. Ryan Pepiot, RHP (3.97 FIP) Sunday at 1:40PM EST

Analysis: Lively will look to rebound from a tough start against Detroit by controlling the Rays best hitters: Isaac Paredes, Brandon Lowe and old friends Amed Rosario and Yandy Diaz.
