Chicago at Cleveland
WIN
The Cleveland Guardians are 8-3 to start the season. Do the Guardians have a free pass in the weak AL Central? The Tigers have started well but Kansas City and the White Sox have a long way to go to contend. The Guardians have rock solid pitching and to this point of the season have outscored their opponent 62-28. They split the first two with the White Sox, who have started the season 2-9. They will hand the ball to Erick Fedde who couldn't win in Washington, and has yet to win in Cleveland his first two decisions. Decided edge for the Guardians this evening. Make the play on Cleveland.
