Orioles vs. Guardians: Bettors Backing Cleveland in Opener

Holliday collects two hits, including double
Jackson Holliday went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI, and a run scored in a win over the Guardians. The 20-year-old is now 5-for-14 with two extra-base hits in four games since beginning his second stint in the majors. He’s too good of a hitter to continue to struggle the way he did earlier in the season, but it may take a few years before his power comes to a level that makes him a fantasy asset in that category, He should provide a solid batting average with the chance for good counting stats in a strong lineup the rest of the way.
Martinez hits two-home run
Angel Martínez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Orioles on Saturday. The 22-year-old continues to operate as the regular center fielder in Cleveland even after the team acquired Lane Thomas at the deadline. Martínez has three home runs since being called up and doesn’t pack a huge punch, never having hit more than 14 in a minor league season or stolen more than 13 bases. However, he makes a lot of contact and should be a typical high-batting-average hitter near the top of the Guardians’ lineup.
