Gavin Williams' Cy Young Potential on Display

On March 27, Cleveland Guardians pitcher Gavin Williams steps up for his season debut on Friday

March 27 against the Seattle Mariners.

National analysts see this as his chance to break out and join the Sai Young talk after

a strong off-season build-up.

He wraps spring training with solid command, striking out 19 batters over five starts while

issuing just two walks.

His sinkers show real promise, setting him up to mix five reliable pitches more freely

this year.

Here Steven Boat raves about Williams' focus, calling it the best he's seen in three years.

That determination fueled a hot finish to 2025, where Williams went 12 and 5 with a near-no-hitter

against the Mets and 12.

Strikeouts in his final start.

The Guardians carry momentum from their opening day win into this match-up.

Williams faces a Mariners lineup that slugged four home runs than I before, so stretching

the zone and varying speeds will be crucial.

Williams run high for Williams to deliver early and help Cleveland build on their division

title from last year.
