Analyst Backs Guardians Moneyline at Plus Odds Against 36-42 Astros
3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jun 21
Summary
Cleveland is the recommended Sunday play, with the analyst arguing the first-place Guardians offer value at plus money against Houston.
Slade Cecconi has steadied lately for Cleveland, allowing three or fewer runs in eight straight starts and two or fewer in each of his last three outings.
Houston counters with Kai-Wei Teng, who owns a 4.31 ERA and was tagged for 14 earned runs in 12.1 innings this month after moving from the bullpen.
The main caution is Astros hitters' familiarity with Cecconi—Houston is 12-for-36 against him—though the analyst still prefers Cleveland over an over-8.5 total bet.
