Zac Gallen gets the ball, and Freeman is 7-for-27 lifetime against him with a pair of long balls. Sixteen of Freddie Freeman's homers in 2025 were off right-handers, and Gallen gave up 31 bombs last year —12 of them to left-handed batters.

If anyone is going to homer in this game, it will be Cal Raleigh, MLB’s reigning home-run leader, playing in his home opener. Bibee’s struggles with the long ball make this an even better bet

Cleveland's offense struggled throughout 2025 and will draw a tough matchup in Mariners right-hander Logan Gilbert tonight. Combine that with Tanner Bibee's uneven results while facing a strong Seattle lineup, and the home team wins by multiple runs.

Daulton Varsho is projected to hit 2nd on the lineup card in this matchup..
