Rain postponed the beginning of this Ohio-based battle in a cross-conference series between the Cleveland Guardians and Cincinnati Reds. Luckily the teams are expected back out on the diamond tomorrow, Tuesday, July 28, 2026. First pitch is scheduled for 7:10 p.m. EST airing on MLB.TV.
Gavin Williams (10-5, 3.78) gets the start on the mound in this matchup with the Reds starting Brady Singer (5-9, 4.53). Williams’ last start came last Thursday against the Minnesota Twins where he pitched seven innings allowing five runs and striking out eleven batters in a no decision.
The pressure is on for the Guardians, as the team has been slipping a bit in the AL Central standings. Currently two games behind the Chicago White Sox, they’ll look to make some progress in this series against the Reds.
Following the latest injury updates, the Guardians will be fully healthy while the Reds will be without Spencer Steer (wrist) and Matt McLain (calf). As a result, the data analysts at Dimers released their Guardians-Reds score prediction after conducting new simulations that took into account every element of matchup data.
The results of Dimers’ simulations were compared to updated sportsbook odds to compile the data-driven Reds vs. Guardians preview below.
