The Cleveland Guardians have been horrible as of late. They’re 2-6 in their last eight games. Bare with me as I do some tricky math here: Cleveland has scored 0, 7, 2, 1, 3 and 0 runs in their last six games. If you throw that seven-run effort out, you’ve got five games where they only scored a total of six runs! That’s 1.2 runs per game! On the flip side, the Rockies are always smelly on the road and Battenfield appears to be a plus pitcher. Lastly, temperatures in Cleveland yesterday were in the 40’s. Not fun baseball weather. I really like this game to go UNDER 8.5 runs.
