Record: 15-22-1
Guardians -120
The Tigers limp into Detroit after a tough series sweep by the Yankees, struggling mightily at the plate with just six runs across those three games. They face a challenge in Cleveland's Tristan McKenzie, who, despite a middling 3.86 ERA at home, has been largely effective this season-aside from one poor start against the Yankees. McKenzie has historically dominated the Tigers, boasting a .088 batting average against and a .162 OBP over 34 at-bats. Conversely, Detroit's Jack Flaherty comes off a standout performance against a weak-hitting Cardinals team, striking out 14 over 6 2/3 shutout innings. However, he now faces a much stiffer test against the Guardians, who rank as the seventh-best scoring offense in the majors. With both teams' bullpens performing comparably, Cleveland's superior hitting form should give them the edge in this matchup.
Good Luck!
