NEW YORK — Unfortunately, the weather for tonight's Cleveland Guardians vs. New York Yankees American League Division Series game doesn't look promising and the MLB made the decision to postpone the game until Friday at 1:07 p.m.

What does this mean for the Guardians' pitching staff?

Guardians ace pitcher Shane Bieber was scheduled to hit the mound tonight, and if necessary game five scheduled for Monday.

Since the game was moved to Friday, there is a good chance he won't be able to pitch on Monday, which could mean a pitching staff rotation change.

The Guardians have decided to go with a three-starter rotation for the playoffs, using Bieber, Triston McKenzie, and Cal Quantrill.

If the series goes to game five, the Guardians will potentially have to play four days in a row.
