Detroit Tigers ML over Cleveland Guardians (-120)
The Guardians have fallen out of playoff contention in August. They are 6-12 in their last 18 games and now 4.5 games out of the AL Central. Of course, a 4.5 game deficit is far from insurmountable with around 40 games left. But given their recent form, the Twins' division lead feels safe. Cleveland has not won a series in their past 6 series' and now have a 4-game series against a team that has had their number this season.
The Tigers have won 6 out of the last 9 head to head games against the Guardians, as well as 4 out of the last 6 played against the Guardians on the road in Cleveland. Detroit is a respectable 7-7 in August considering they only played 2 games against a team with a losing record. Things are just looking up a bit more for the Tigers right now as the Guardians are on a bit of a slide.
