Game Prediction
Is this Cleveland really this good? WOW, they have dominated the Twins, and I don’t see things being any different in this one. Ober is off to a rough start, and I don’t see him getting things going against this Guardians lineup that is grinding out runs daily. Considering how bad Minnesota’s offense has been, McKenzie should have another solid outing. My theory in this one is: if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it. Back Cleveland to win and sweep the series on the road. How they are underdogs again is beyond me.
Final Pick
Cleveland Guardians (+110)
