Cleveland (33-29), on the other hand, is looking to bounce back after dropping two of three to the Yankees. The Guardians have hit a bit of a skid, going just 4-6 over their last ten contests, with the under cashing in six of those games.

Cleveland Guardians vs Houston Astros team news, injury reports & key players

Cleveland Guardians team news

Cleveland will hand the ball to Tanner Bibee for Sunday’s finale. The right-hander gave up three runs on four hits over 6.1 innings in his last outing against the Yankees. In 12 starts this year, the third-year pro holds a 4-6 record with a 3.89 ERA and 1.20 WHIP. He’s been particularly sharp at home, posting a 2.43 ERA and 1.18 WHIP in five Progressive Field starts.

Houston is expected to counter with veteran Lance McCullers Jr., who appears to be finding his footing after a long injury layoff. The 31-year-old tossed six shutout innings against Pittsburgh in his last start, allowing just two hits and striking out seven for his first win since 2021. McCullers owns a 1-1 record with a 4.44 ERA and 1.40 WHIP across six starts this season. On the road, however, he’s been nearly untouchable, going 1-0 with a spotless ERA (0.00) and a 1.02 WHIP over three appearances.

Houston Astros team news

Jose Ramirez remains the heartbeat of the Guardians’ offense, leading the club in home runs (12), RBIs (31), and batting average (.333). His recent stretch at the plate has been nothing short of scorching, Ramirez has now hit safely in seven straight games and is batting .436 over his last 10, with three home runs, two doubles, five RBIs, and five walks.

Steven Kwan has been another bright spot, hitting .314 with 14 doubles and five long balls, though his power numbers remain modest on a league scale. Carlos Santana has chipped in seven home runs and 31 walks while batting .255, and Kyle Manzardo has shown pop with 11 homers despite a low average (.205).
