Why bet on the Cleveland Guardians?

The Guardians ended the night with the win, albeit a narrow one-point win. This brings their season record to 30-27 and they have now won five of their last six games. Cleveland was in a matchup with Oakland before heading out to Denver to face the Rockies and won the series, three out of four games.

Cleveland’s pitching staff records a 3.66 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, and a .226 opponent batting average. Their most recent victory saw Jose Ramirez start the game and doubled home the go-ahead run in the tenth inning to help create the gap. Shane Bieber also got the previous start. He features a 3.01 ERA and 1.16 WHIP with 75 strikes this season. Bieber went 6 ⅔ innings and gave up three runs on nine hits, eventually striking out seven.

Taking the starting pitcher role for the visitors on Wednesday Night is Konnor Pilkington. He has a 3.57 ERA with 25 strikes and a 1.54 WHIP. The 24-year-old is 1-0 this season and should have more confidence coming into the game after the 4-3 victory.

Why bet on the Colorado Rockies?

Tuesday was a disappointing day for the hosts after giving up the one-run defeat. They sit dead last in the NL West division with 27 wins and 34 losses. It’s been a tough few weeks for the team, but they managed to sneak in four wins in ten games. They also have a better home record at 16-16, which could help close down the advantage Cleveland holds over the side.

Antonio Senzatela started the recent game for Colorado, having recorded a 4.79 ERA, with 24 strikes and a 1.81 WHIP this season. He found six innings and allowed eight hits and three runs, two earned during his stint. He struck out four and walked one in the defeat.

Traditional pitcher Austin Gomber takes the mound for this one. The pitcher holds a 6.17 ERA and 1.42 WHIP on top of 45 strikes. He is 3-6 in the season and records a .284 batting average against.

Guardians vs. Rockies Betting Prediction

We anticipate another close fight brewing between the two, especially after their performance in Game 1. The Rockies have a confident pitcher on the mound but might deliver some unexpected moments throughout the game. Although Gomber has lower-ranking numbers, he’s had more exposure and playing time this season which could prove crucial against the Guardians. The margins are narrow for both teams and we look forward to another great contest on Wednesday night.
