Without a doubt, the Royals and Guardians, both well-armed teams that play good baseball, make few errors, and take the necessary risks to win close games, played the most evenly matched series so far in MLB's opening week.

The Guardians won the first game 4-7 in extra innings, and the second ended 4-3 in favor of the Royals, with a strong relief performance from Daniel Lynch, who ended up taking the W. That was what defined Game 2, as while Lynch went hitless from the bullpen, Sewald gave up Maikel García's home run for the Guardians, and Witt Jr.'s RBI double gave the Royals the victory in front of more than 20,000 fans.

In discouraging news for the Guardians, their star and offensive driving force, José Ramirez, left the game in the sixth inning after spraining his right wrist. Before Sunday's game, Ramirez is day-to-day, but he's expected to miss the decisive game as he will undergo further testing tomorrow.

Kansas City had a solid performance from the top of their lineup on Saturday, with Witt Jr., India, Pasquantino, and Perez going 5-for-14 between the four.

Cleveland Guardians - Kansas City Royals Key Points

  1. The Royals recorded three stolen bases in their first two games
  2. Eight of the Royals' last 10 official games resulted in a Game Total of UNDER
  3. Wacha had a 1.19 WHIP in 2024 with the Royals
  4. Wacha went 13-8 last season

Our Cleveland Guardians vs Kansas City Royals Prediction

Wacha had a solid year in 2024, in fact, pitching the most innings since his golden years with the Cardinals in 2015. The Guardians are familiar with Wacha, having faced him at least three times last season. However, while the same could be said of Bibee with the Royals, the Guardians won the last three times he started against Kansas City. A low-scoring game could be the case in the decider. Our prediction for Royals vs Guardians is: Under 8.

Prediction:

 

Under 8.
