Guardians, Chicago White Sox series preview, pitching matchups

The Guardians are hosting the White Sox for a three-game series at Progressive Field. Cleveland currently holds a 4-6 season record against Chicago, although they have shown strong offensive and bullpen performances throughout September. This series is pivotal for the AL Central standings, as the Guardians trail the White Sox by only a half-game. Consequently, every victory in this matchup represents a crucial swing in the competitive race for the division lead.
