The right-hander was arguably the club&#8217;s most consistent pitcher for the first three months of the season.<\/p>\n<p>The Guardians and Tigers announced their rosters about three hours before Game 1 on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Added to give Cleveland depth, Lively helped the AL Central champions overcome the loss of former Cy Young winner <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/mlb\/player\/_\/id\/40912\/shane-bieber\">Shane Bieber<\/a>, who made just two starts before having season-ending Tommy John surgery.<\/p>\n<p>The Guardians also were without starter <a href=\"http:\/\/www.espn.com\/mlb\/player\/_\/id\/4345076\/gavin-williams\">Gavin Williams<\/a> until July because of an elbow injury, and Triston McKenzie and Logan Allen &#8212; both penciled in as starters &#8212; struggled and were sent to the minor leagues.<\/p>\n<p>Cleveland&#8217;s bullpen has been MLB&#8217;s best all season, and manager Stephen Vogt elected to carry 12 pitchers. Two notable contributors were left off: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.espn.com\/mlb\/player\/_\/id\/41385\/nick-sandlin\">Nick Sandlin<\/a>, who went 8-0 with a 3.75 ERA in 68 games, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.espn.com\/mlb\/player\/_\/id\/39740\/pedro-avila\">Pedro Avila<\/a>, who was 6-1 with a 3.81 ERA in 54 appearances.<\/p>\n<p>Starter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/mlb\/player\/_\/id\/31086\/alex-cobb\">Alex Cobb<\/a>, who ended the season on the injured list because of a finger blister, is on the ALDS roster. He is a candidate to start Game 3, though Vogt could choose to use his bullpen from start to finish.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/mlb\/story\/_\/id\/41622134\/guardians-rhp-ben-lively-left-alds-roster-vs-tigers\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ben Lively was left off Cleveland&#8216;s roster for the American League Division Series against Detroit despite being an invaluable addition to the Guardians&#8217; starting rotation this season.
