INJURIES

Makes first Cactus League start Williams allowed two runs (one earned) on one hit and one walk while striking out one over 1.1 innings in Tuesday's start against the Dodgers.
Impact A first-inning walk and fielding error by third baseman Juan Brito drove up Williams' pitch count and forced an early exit with one out. The right-hander then returned for the second inning and set down the side in order. He threw 33 pitches (17 strikes). Reducing walks and better location to limit pitch counts are his focus heading into 2026. In some order, Williams and Tanner Bibee will top the Guardians' rotation this season.

Mechanical tweak leads to success Williams credits a midseason mechanical adjustment to explain his improvement in the second half of 2025, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
Impact Williams made a subtle adjustment during on off-day in June, raising the position of his hands from resting at the belt to the chest. The goal was to create a longer arm path to better locate his pitches, and he described it as "night and day" from that point on. Following a period of adjustment, Williams was one of the better pitchers in the game after the All-Star break. He went 7-1 with a 2.18 ERA while pitching at least six innings in eight of 12 starts following the break. And the walks (5.3 BB/9) that were a pesky issue and raised his pitch counts over the first half of the season dropped to 3.3 per nine innings in the second half. The right-hander, who made 31 starts in 2025, is now an anchor in the Guardians rotation entering 2026.

Impact The Tigers plated their first run in the top of the first inning thanks to a pair of two-out singles and an error, and they added another in the top of the seventh on a squeeze bunt after Williams was pulled from the game. That turned out to be enough, as Tarik Skubal and the Tigers' bullpen kept the Guardians in check. Williams accrued up 19 whiffs on his 88 pitches, picking up where he left off after closing out the regular season on a high note. He would likely pitch Game 2 of the ALDS versus the Mariners on Sunday, should the Guardians advance.

Last Night in Baseball: Mets Take Back Wild Card Spot, But Diamondbacks Loom
Punches out 12 Williams (12-5) allowed two runs on four hits and two walks over six innings Tuesday, striking out 12 and earning a win over the Tigers.
Impact Williams gave up one run through five frames before serving up a solo homer to Riley Greene in the sixth inning. Williams was in line for the loss before the Guardians tallied three runs in the bottom of the inning. He's won four straight decisions, posting a 1.74 ERA over five starts during that stretch. The 26-year-old forced 18 whiffs on 91 total pitches Tuesday, including seven with his curveball and six with the sweeper. Williams now owns a 3.06 ERA with a 173:83 K:BB through 167.2 innings this season. He's tentatively scheduled to make his final regular-season start this weekend at home against the Rangers.
