Giants vs. Guardians MLB Picks: Hoping for the Good Foster Griffin on Tuesday
Carson Whisenhunt and Foster Griffin are the probable starters as Cleveland opens a three-game home series against San Francisco, with both teams below .500.
- On Tuesday, the Cleveland Guardians defeated the San Francisco Giants 8-1 at Progressive Field, with outfielder Jo Adell recording three hits and a career-high six RBIs.
- Giants rookie left-hander Carson Whisenhunt allowed a career-high seven runs over four innings, as the 25-year-old struggles to secure his place in San Francisco's rotation.
- Adell ignited the offense in the first inning with a three-run home run against Whisenhunt that traveled an estimated 455 feet, setting an early tone for Cleveland's dominance.
- With pitcher Matt Wilkinson expected to join the team Wednesday, the Giants may consider replacing Whisenhunt in the rotation, intensifying pressure on first-year manager Tony Vitello.
- Defending division champion Cleveland remains in playoff contention, sitting 1.5 games out of the final wild-card spot while managing injuries to rookie outfielder Chase DeLauter.
