Colorado only has seven wins so far this season, but they were able to get the win in Game 1 of this series. The Rockies pitching staff has been horrible this year, but they shutout the Guardians on Monday. Colorado is starting Ryan Feltner in this game, who has allowed 13 earned runs over 19 innings pitched. The Guardians will turn to Peyton Battenfield, who has only allowed two earned runs over 10.2 innings pitched this year. I like the Guardians to get the win by at least two runs.
