Fans seven against Red Sox Cantillo (4-3) earned the win over the Red Sox on Wednesday, allowing one run on five hits and two walks while striking out seven over six innings.
Impact Cantillo was impressive against a tough Boston lineup, completing six innings for the first time this season. The southpaw's lone blemish came in the fourth inning, but he quickly rebounded to retire seven of the final eight batters he faced before exiting. Wednesday's performance continued a strong stretch in which Cantillo has now allowed fewer than two runs in three straight starts, and across his nine starts this year, the 25-year-old has posted a 3.68 ERA and a 51:24 K:BB over 44 innings.

Expected to start Wednesday Cantillo has joined the Guardians in Boston and is expected to start Wednesday's game versus the Red Sox, Paul Hoynes of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Impact It's Logan Allen's turn in the rotation, but it's not clear whether his start is being pushed back or he's being moved to the bullpen. Cantillo posted a 6.52 ERA and 12:4 K:BB over 9.2 innings in his two starts with Triple-A Columbus after being demoted last month. He's collected a 3.93 ERA and 80:36 K:BB over 66.1 frames covering eight starts and 21 relief appearances in the majors this season.

Guardians recall LHP Tim Herrin, option LHP Joey Cantillo to Triple-A Columbus before hosting Braves

The Cleveland Guardians have recalled left-hander Tim Herrin and optioned lefty Joey Cantillo to Triple-A Columbus
AUGUST 17, 2025 • Associated Press
Demoted to Triple-A The Guardians optioned Cantillo to Triple-A Columbus on Sunday.
Impact Cleveland called up lefty reliever Tim Herrin to replace Cantillo on the active roster, but the Guardians will likely wait until Cantillo's next turn in the rotation comes up during the upcoming week before announcing a new fifth starter. Cantillo owns a respectable 3.93 ERA over 66.1 innings in the majors this season, but he had issued at least four walks in three of his five starts since the All-Star break. The Guardians may want the young lefty to iron out his control at Triple-A before giving him another look in the big-league rotation.

Takes loss despite solid outing Cantillo (3-3) took the loss against Atlanta on Friday, allowing one run on four hits and four walks while striking out five over five innings.
Impact The left-hander was effective for most of the night but faltered in the fourth inning, issuing a bases-loaded walk to Nacho Alvarez that gave Atlanta a lead it wouldn't relinquish. Cantillo has now issued at least four walks in three of his last five outings, though he's managed to limit the damage during that stretch, recording a 3.55 ERA with 26 strikeouts across 25.1 innings. The 25-year-old will look to rein in the free passes and build on his recent outings in his next scheduled start against Arizona.
