Guardians bring win streak into game against the White Sox

The Cleveland Guardians are looking to prolong a four-game win streak with a victory against the Chicago White Sox
AUGUST 9, 2025 • Associated Press
Fans nine in loss Cantillo (2-2) yielded four runs on six hits and two walks over 5.2 innings Sunday, striking out nine and taking a loss against the Twins.
Impact Cantillo rebounded from a nightmare first inning to turn in a more respectable final line. He coughed up four runs in the first frame, capped off by a two-run single from Trevor Larnach. Cantillo did not allow another runner to reach scoring position for the rest of his outing. He generated 19 swinging strikes on 91 pitches, including 11 on 14 swings against his changeup. It was the first time this season he punched out more than seven batters in an outing. Cantillo now owns a 4.37 ERA with a 72:30 K:BB across 55.2 frames. He's in line for a road matchup against the White Sox next weekend.

First loss of 2025 Cantillo (2-1) took the loss Sunday against Kansas City, allowing three runs on three hits and four walks with four strikeouts over four innings.
Impact The Guardians have deployed Cantillo as a starter in July, and he took his first loss of the campaign Sunday in his fifth start, throwing 76 pitches. Control has been an issue for Cantillo as a starter, having walked at least three batters in all but one start thus far. He has a 4.57 ERA and a 27:11 K:BB across 21.2 innings since the role swap. His next appearance is expected to come next weekend against Minnesota.

Stingy in Tuesday's win Cantillo (2-0) picked up the win in Tuesday's 6-3 victory over the Orioles, allowing one run on two hits and four walks over five innings. He struck out five.
Impact The 25-year-old southpaw tossed only 57 of 95 pitches for strikes, but 35 called or swinging strikes and a couple double plays behind him kept the damage to a minimum. Cantillo's stint in the rotation may not last much longer with Shane Bieber (elbow) getting closer to his season debut, but Cantillo has held his own so far, posting a 4.08 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 23:10 K:BB in 17.2 innings over four July starts. His next outing lines up to come on the road this weekend in Kansas City.

Logs longest outing, K's up six Cantillo did not factor in the decision, allowing four runs on seven hits over 5.1 innings while striking out six in the 6-5 win over the White Sox.
Impact Making his third start of the season, Cantillo looked sharp early but ran into trouble in the middle innings. He gave up a solo homer to Austin Slater in the fourth and exited after surrendering another solo shot to Andrew Benintendi in the sixth. The outing marked his longest of the year, and the 25-year-old has shown he can sustain his swing-and-miss stuff over multiple frames, racking up 18 strikeouts across 12.2 innings in his trio of starts.

Cleveland Guardians and Chicago White Sox meet in game 4 of series

The Cleveland Guardians face the Chicago White Sox with a 2-1 series lead
JULY 13, 2025 • Associated Press
Fans season-high seven Tuesday Cantillo didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Astros, giving up three runs on five hits and three walks in four innings. He struck out seven.
Impact The seven strikeouts were a season high for Cantillo, who produced his longest outing of the year. The 25-year-old left-hander generated 15 whiffs on the evening, but he's now walked a trio of batters in both of his past two starts since joining Cleveland's rotation. Cantillo owns a serviceable 3.79 ERA and 48:20 K:BB over 35.2 innings, but his 1.46 WHIP is a cause for concern. He should still carry some streaming appeal this weekend in scheduled matchup against the lowly White Sox.

Drawing another start Cantillo is listed as the Guardians' scheduled starter for Tuesday's game in Houston.
Impact Cantillo will be making his second turn through the Cleveland rotation after he was called up from Triple-A Columbus to start in Thursday's 1-0 extra-inning loss to the Cubs after Luis L. Ortiz was placed on the restricted list. Ortiz will remain out through at least the All-Star break while he remains the subject of an ongoing league investigation, so Cantillo looks as though he'll be in line for a two-start week to close out the Guardians' first-half schedule, with the young lefty's second turn expected to come next Sunday against the White Sox. After he hadn't covered four innings in any of his four starts with Triple-A Columbus prior to being recalled Thursday, Cantillo handled a light workload in his outing against the Cubs, tossing 68 pitches over 3.1 scoreless innings while striking out five batters.

Holds Cubs in check in no-decision Cantillo didn't factor into the decision Thursday against the Cubs, giving up no runs on two hits and three walks in 3.1 innings. He struck out five.
Impact The 25-year-old left-hander was summoned from the minor leagues Thursday, and he was able to keep a tough Chicago lineup in check despite not being fully stretched out for a starter's workload. Cantillo was lifted after throwing a season-high 68 pitches in his first start of the season, and he now owns a serviceable 3.41 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 41:17 K:BB over 31.2 frames (22 outings). With Luis L. Ortiz out of action while facing gambling allegations, Cantillo's next turn in Cleveland's rotation lines up for a stiff challenge against the Astros in Houston.
