Gavin Williams Punches Out Five On Tuesday
9 months agoCleveland Guardians right-hander Gavin Williams was solid in his second outing of the spring on Tuesday against the Seattle Mariners. The 24-year-old yielded one earned run on four hits across his 2 2/3 innings of work but also struck out five and did not walk a batter. He now has allowed just one earned run in his 4 2/3 innings of work this spring and has also punched out a hefty nine batters in that time. Williams was stellar in his rookie season in 2023, working to a 3.29 ERA across 16 starts and 82 innings of work. However, he also posted a subpar 12.8% K-BB% and his 4.61 SIERA was well above his surface ERA. That said, Williams sports excellent fantasy value heading into his sophomore season and projects for a 3.96 ERA and a superior 14.4% K-BB% across 26 starts by ATC for the upcoming campaign.
