Athletics vs. Cleveland Guardians Prediction

I’m on the Guardians in this one. I get the case to be made for an underdog in some spots, but the thing is that the Athletics haven’t been able to put up wins with Luis Severino on the bump and it looks like the Guardians are starting to right the ship after their tough end to the first half of the season. The Guardians are far from being world-beaters in my eyes, but I think they’re going to be good enough here behind another strong start from Logan Allen to secure the win at home on Saturday. Give me the Guardians here.
