Cleveland Guardians at Texas Rangers – 8:05 ET
The Guardians are one of the hottest teams in baseball, carried mainly by their elite pitching staff. While their offense has not necessarily been a strong suit, their top end of the lineup is significantly better than the rest of the lineup. Today, Jon Gray takes the mound against them, and Gray has actually had a pretty decent first season in Texas. He has not necessarily been the ace they hoped for, but he has been slightly above average across the board. He has a K/9 over nine with about three walks per nine as well. He does allow a baserunner an inning, but as long as he can keep Jose Ramirez from doing a ton of damage, he should be able to keep the Guardians off the board.
