Yankees vs Guardians Probable Pitchers

Gerrit Cole (2-0, 0.73) will pitch for the Yankees and oppose rookie Hunter Gaddis (0-0, 3.72). Both will be pitching on five days of rest.

Cole vs Gaddis

Gerrit Cole
VS
Hunter Gaddis
2-0 Record 0-0
0.73 ERA 3.72
2.12 xERA 2.32
0.89 WHIP 0.93
3.80 SO/W 2.67

Cole will look to continue his fine start to the season after beating the Phillies last Wednesday in Philadelphia. He limited the defending National League champions to one run on three hits in 6.1 innings with eight strikeouts and three walks.

The Guardians have struggled against Cole. He has a 9-2 record and 2.76 ERA against them in 12 career starts.

Cole, whose AL Cy Young odds are +700, has just a slightly higher ERA on the road (3.26) in his career than he does at home (3.17). His ERA is 3.10 in night games and 3.46 in the day.

Gaddis pitched six shutout innings of one-hit ball last Wednesday against the Athletics in Oakland but wound up still looking for his first career win as he had a no-decision. He struck out four and walked two.

This will be Gaddis’ first time facing the Yankees in his nascent career.

Gaddis has struggled at Progressive Field with an 18.41 ERA as compared to 3.72 on the road. He has a 6.30 mark in the day and a 15.42 ERA at night.

Yankees vs Guardians Betting Outlook

Josh Naylor’s sacrifice fly in the seventh inning broke a 2-2 tie and lifted the Guardians to victory on Monday night.

The Guardians had just four hits and three were doubles by Mike Zunino. Gleyber Torres had a double and a triple for the Yankees.
