Right now, the Guardians have too many starting pitchers. Yes, this is still the same team that has been forced to start Kolby Allard on two separate occasions. But now the Guardians have an abundance of starting pitchers and may not have enough innings for all of them across the rest of the year.
On Wednesday, Joey Cantillo added to that (good) problem by tossing six strong innings in the Guardians’ win over the Red Sox at Fenway Park in his first start since being recalled from Triple-A.
While having too many viable starting pitchers is a good problem, the Guardians are going to have to get creative to make it all work for the rest of the season.
