Prediction published on 9/19/24, 10:48 AM  by Carlos Zabala | Modified on 9/19/24 at 11:07 AM in MLB Picks

Guardians lead the series 2-1 over the Twins. Guardians have an 88-65 record over the Tigers and a very good 47-28 record at Progressive Field.

Naylor hit 2 HRs for the Guardians in yesterday's game, one in the second inning and another in the seventh, these were his 30th and 31st HRs of the season. It seems that Guardians have a comfortable lead to finish off the AL East division as they have a 5.5 game lead over the Royals who lost their last 3 games at home against the Tigers.

The Twins have been able to do little when facing the Guardians recently against whom they have a 3-9 record this season. At least Correa, since his return, has been pretty solid and is hitting .315 AVG and drove in 3 of the 4 runs in the last 4-5 loss of the Twins.

Woods Richardson is scheduled to pitch in Game 4 of the series, the first time in many years that he has managed to stay healthy throughout the season and in fact leads the Twins in starts and innings pitched with 128.
