Guardians vs Red Sox prediction
The Guardians are playing great ball, and they’re probably a team you should be looking to back if they can keep this up. However, Tanner Bibee has been rough through 13.2 innings as he’s walked 8 and allowed 17 hits and 9 runs. Garrett Whitlock hasn’t gotten run support in his last 2 starts, but he’s allowed just 11 hits and 2 runs through 14.1 innings while striking out 16. The Red Sox have the pitching edge in this one. Cheap price, give me the Red Sox to get a bounce back victory.
