What a disappointing second Half for Guardians
The Guardians at the All-Star Break were in a position to make the playoffs but they really struggled down the stretch and now they are going to miss out on the playoffs. Coming into this series the Guardians have lost four of their last five games, but the one win came in their last game. The Guardians are averaging 4.1 runs while their pitching is giving up 4.27 runs per game. The offense is ranked 27th in the league while the pitching is ranked 8th. On the mound for the Guardians will be Cal Quantrill who sits with a 3-7 record and an ERA of 5.13.
Tigers Look to Season Strong
The Tigers have struggled this season but they are coming off a big victory on Thursday. The Tigers scored seven runs against the Kansas City Royals and that was enough for the victory. The Tigers are averaging 4.04 runs while their pitching is giving up 4.6 runs per game. The offense is ranked 28th in baseball and it’s been what has held them back all season. On the mound for the Tigers will be Joey Wentz who sits with a 3-12 record and an ERA of 6.45.
Shane’s Free Pick
This total is too low. These aren’t pitchers that have been good all season and they are both going to have some major issues getting even four innings here. Especially Wentz is going to be lit up by the Guardians offense. Both of these teams are going to finish with at least five runs and this game is going to go over the total.
