Guardians vs Blue Jays: Critical Game for Playoff Hopes

Along with maybe the important game for both these teams, the Guardians and the Blue Jays. Gavin Williams on the mound for the Guardians at home. Both these teams need to keep winning games. I mean, the Blue Jays, if they're gonna have a shot to get back to the postseason, they gotta keep winning these games, but the Guardians and Gavin Williams has been so good at home. Is he not? Yeah, hard to go against Gavin Williams and I think Cleveland is the better team between the two. I don't ask Max Scherzer, though. Max Scherzer thinks he's like all the way back now. He's like a superstar again. Yeah, this is a huge number. Wow. Minus 180, I see over on FanDuel with a total of seven and a half. What could we play here in this game? Maybe as long as Stephen Kwan is leading off in this game, I could see multiple hits from him. That may be a direction that I potentially would want to go. As far as the side, there's nowhere to go here because I'm not going to take Toronto. That's not happening. So, it would just be not laying one and a half. Total seven and a half sort of feels right here, Joe. Could be an eight, could be seven because Williams is going to pitch six innings. He's going to give up two runs. It's usually what he does. It's more of how many runs Cleveland scores and you know this, Joe. Cleveland usually doesn't score a lot of runs. So, nothing strong for me here on this one tonight. Although, Kwan is a guy that I would look to because it seems like he's just getting on base a lot more often here in the second half. Yeah, he is. He is good. It is a big number too for a team with such inconsistent offense. Yeesh. I know Arroganti was supposed to start this game but apparently that was a late scratch. I don't know if this is a bulk roll or what they're going to be doing here but yikes. The Guardians here did salvage I think the finale of that three against Kansas City on Sunday but wow. They did go eight and two I think to end the month. So, they feel like they've gone in the right direction. I've always said you thought especially with the moves at the trade deadline that the Guardians were a team that yeah, I trust them. I trust them more than the White Sox. Are you still on that bandwagon? Do you still think they're better than the White Sox and can they actually be dangerous if they can make it into the postseason? Yeah, I don't I don't think they'd be a dangerous postseason team, Joe but I definitely still think they can catch the White Sox and if you think about it after all, they were as I've said like a million times already, ten games behind with just like twenty games to go and ended up catching them. So, yeah, I mean III think Cleveland could definitely catch Chicago but I don't think they'll be as hot as they were a year ago.
