"Wild Card Series to begin: Each of the four Wild Card matchups are scheduled to have their first game today. Things will kick off in Cleveland with Gavin Williams on the bump for the Guardians. He'll be facing Tigers ace Tarik Skubal. The reigning AL Cy Young winner will be looking to redeem Detroit after their shocking slump, paired with Cleveland's surge, caused the Tigers to fall out of the top spot in the AL Central."
"A potential MLB debut in the postseason? Guardians outfield prospect Chase DeLauter has not yet appeared in an MLB game. That might change this week, as Zack Meisel of The Athletic writes that DeLauter is on the club's taxi squad and participated in Cleveland's workouts at Progressive Field yesterday. That leaves him at least potentially in the conversation to make the roster, and as a consensus top-50 prospect in the sport who hit .278/.383/.476 at Triple-A this year,"
Four Wild Card Series games open today with starting pitchers Gavin Williams vs. Tarik Skubal in Cleveland, Nick Pivetta at Wrigley Field, Garrett Crochet vs. the Yankees in the Bronx, and Hunter Greene facing Blake Snell in Los Angeles. Detroit fell from first in the AL Central after a surprising slump while Cleveland surged late in the season. The Cubs aim for their first playoff win since 2017. Guardians outfield prospect Chase DeLauter is on the taxi squad and took part in workouts, making him a possible roster option after a strong Triple-A season.
