Why These Picks?
DET Tigers v CLE Guardians: Plain and simple, Casey Mize has not been the Tigers’ most reliable starter this season. To boot, he’s carrying an ERA of 4.04 around on the road, and this will be his first stint in the post-season; the Guardians should be able to to capitalize with the home advantage. Cleveland has won 4 of Tanner Bibee’s (4.24 ERA) last 5 starts, and 3 of those 4 wins have been by at least 2 runs. Comically, Bibee’s last two starts were against the Detroit Tigers (the Guardians covered the RL in both encounters). I know it’s a tall order during a post-season elimination game, but my money’s on Cleveland to clap back and win by at least two here, and on the home squad to put at least 4 in the bag.
BOS Red Sox v NY Yankees: I'm on a higher-scoring affair here today, friends. Both of these teams have already sent out their best pitchers, and to be frank, only their best pitchers could keep these two offenses from sending the final total Over 8 in my opinion. I expect Brayan Bello (3.35 ERA) to let more than few get past him this evening, and solid as Carlos Rodon (3.09 ERA) can be, I don't think he keeps the Red Sox off the board. Correct score prediction? I like this game to finish 5-3. I'm on the Over to hit and I'll take NY to win by two.
