Guardians weigh McCarty start vs Astros as Pilkington option looms
Cleveland's plan for tonight hinges on lefty Kirk McCarty's availability. If he did not pitch Thursday he would start or open with Bryan Shaw following. if used in the series opener, Cleveland could recall Konnor Pilkington who has 12 appearances and a 4.17 ERA. Sandy Leon's trade frees him for a major league opportunity elsewhere, Francona calling the move peculiar in division play. Verlander, 39, seeks another elite outing for Houston as Cleveland leads the AL in second-half wins since 2013 and sits 36-1 when ahead after six.
