Cantillo (2-3) earned the win against the Rays on Saturday, allowing three hits and one walk while striking out six over five scoreless innings. Cantillo threw just 45 of 78 pitches for strikes but kept the Rays off balance with an impressive 15 whiffs. The rookie has won two consecutive contests, yielding just one earned run while posting a fantastic 16:1 K:BB. On the season, he owns a 4.99 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 31:10 K:BB across 30.2 innings and lines up to face the Twins next week.

Cantillo is scheduled to start Saturday's game against the Rays in Cleveland. After returning from Triple-A Columbus on Monday and striking out 10 over seven innings of one-run ball in a win over the White Sox, Cantillo has earned himself a second straight turn through the Cleveland rotation. The left-handed rookie should hold down a rotation spot until the Guardians get Alex Cobb (finger) back from the 15-day injured list.

The Guardians recalled Cantillo from Triple-A Columbus on Monday. Cantillo will make a start Monday against the White Sox. Ben Lively had been in line to take the hill Monday, but Lively has struggled lately and will have his turn pushed back or perhaps skipped altogether. The left-handed Cantillo has produced an unsightly 7.71 ERA and 15:9 K:BB over 18.2 innings in four starts and one relief appearance with the Guardians this season.

Cantillo was optioned to Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday. Cantillo's demotion was expected after he served as the 27th man in Monday's doubleheader versus the Royals. He's pitched to a 7.71 ERA over 18.2 innings in the majors this year. With an off day Thursday, the Guardians may be able to get by with a four-man rotation until Alex Cobb (fingernail) is ready to return, which means Cantillo could be staying at Triple-A for a while.

The Guardians recalled Cantillo from Triple-A Columbus prior to Monday's doubleheader with the Royals. Cantillo is expected to pitch in the first game of the twin bill, likely serving as a bulk reliever once opening pitcher Nick Sandlin exits the contest after working an inning or two. The Guardians had previously deployed Cantillo as a traditional starter in each of his prior four outings with the big club, but the lefty submitted an 8.47 ERA and 1.76 WHIP over 17 innings across those contests. Cantillo is expected to be returned to Columbus following the twin bill.
