Matt Dery of the Dery Brothers Guardians Cast says he had no issue with Stephen Vogt sending Gavin Williams back out for the sixth, pointing to the offense going hitless with runners in scoring position, while the hosts argue Williams earned the chance to keep rolling. Dery would move a slumping Jose Ramirez down the order, wants hitting coach Grant Fink replaced and still believes the Guardians can win in Chicago. He also isn't thrilled with the White Sox bullpen game approach, but admits it's working, and he likes Tanner Bibee to start Game 3.
