Top Guardians vs. Twins predictions
After 10,000 simulations of Twins vs. Guardians, the model is going Over 7.5 combined runs. Despite a modest total, both starters have struggled at times to keep the ball in the park this season. Bibee carries a 3-9 record to the mound despite a 3.90 ERA, and the Twins have a strong enough lineup to do damage against a Cleveland rotation that has given up plenty of runs in recent weeks.
Ryan is the better arm on paper at 2.85 ERA, but he'll face a Guardians lineup that ranks among the better contact offenses in the AL. The model projects the Twins at 4.4 runs and the Guardians at 3.9, for a combined 8.3 runs in its simulations, well above the 7.5 line. Get the Twins vs. Guardians money-line pick at SportsLine.
