Guardians Offense impressed

The Guardians’ offense sure impressed in the first game of the season. The Guardians scored seven runs against the Kansas City Royals, which was enough for the three-run victory. Kyle Manzardo had a huge game to pace the offense, hitting a home run and driving in four RBIs. He also finished with three hits and two runs. Ben Lively got the start for the Guardians and went five innings, giving up four hits and three earned runs. The first run scored was in the 4th inning, and getting out to a faster start here is going to be important. 

Gavin Williams will start for the Guardians in this game. He has had an up-and-down career. In 2024, he finished with a 3-10 record and an ERA of 4.86. On Monday, the Guardians are going out west to take on the San Diego Padres. 

Royals’ Bullpen Has to be Better

I’m not saying that the whole bullpen for the Royals needs to be better, but the back end of the bullpen in extra innings blew it. Sam Long went an inning and gave up two hits and two runs. Cole Ragans got the start, and he went five innings, giving up five hits and three runs, two of them earned. Vinnie Pasquantino was the top offensive player, putting up a home run and driving in three RBIs. If he is going to have a big season, that is a great sign for the Royals’ chances to find success this year. 

Seth Lugo is going to get the start for the Royals, and last season, he was strong. He finished with a 16-9 record and an ERA of 3.00. On Monday, the Brewers go on the road to take on the Milwaukee Brewers. 

Cleveland Guardians vs Kansas City Royals Prediction

Give me the home team to bounce back in a big way here. Seth Lugo is a really good pitcher, and he’s the much better pitcher in this game. Last season, he finished with a 3.00 ERA, and he’s going to dominate here. Gavin Williams, on the other hand, can’t be trusted, and he’s going to really struggle here. The Royals’ offense will find success outside of Pasquantino, and it will be Kansas City that gets the job done. Back the Royals on the money line.
