Guardians' Will Brennan: Not starting Game 1 of ALDS
Will Brennan is not in Cleveland's lineup for Game 1 of the American League Division Series versus Detroit.Brennan started all three games during the Cleveland Guardians' final series of the regular season against Houston, playing twice in right field and once in left field. However, Jhonkensy Noel will start in right field in the first game of the ALDS while Steven Kwan gets the start in left. Brennan plays mostly against right-handed pitchers, and Detroit is opening Game 1 with southpaw Tyler Holton, which likely explains Brennan's exclusion from the lineup. However, Brennan could enter the game at some point, as righty Reese Olson is expected to work in bulk relief Saturday.
