7:10 p.m. ET: San Francisco Giants (4-2) at Cleveland Guardians (4-2)
Odds: Giants -145 / Guardians +135
Over/Under: 8 +100/-120
The Guardians have won 4 straight games and are leading the league in runs scored with 45 this season. Today is also the Guardians’ home opener. Rodon (0-0, 1.80 ERA) will be making his 13th career appearance and 12th as a starter at Progressive Field, all with the Chicago White Sox. He posted a 5-4 record with a 3.26 ERA in those games. Rodon has a 7-5 record with a 2.90 ERA in 20 career outings against Cleveland. Rodon received a no-decision in his opener despite allowing one run on 3 hits while striking out 12 in 5 innings in the 2-1 loss to the Marlins. Zach Plesac threw 5.2 shutout innings in his first start this season and has never faced the Giants. The Giants are still without many key bats(Crawford, Longoria, La Stella, and Wade Jr.) and the Guardians are hitting lefties to a .443 wOBA right now. The Guardians are the better team at this time with the offense clicking so take the value with the plus money on the home dog.
