Rangers vs. Guardians Betting Prediction

The Guardians have been one of the best clubs in the American League all season. Cleveland’s straight up record of 74-55 is the third-best mark in the AL this year. Multiple relevant statistics point to the Guardians notching a victory against the Rangers on Sunday. Cleveland is 49-27 straight up as a favorite and 38-21 straight up as the home team on the campaign. Furthermore, the Guardians are 55-38 straight up in American League games and 52-38 straight up in non-division games in 2024.  Cleveland is 2-0 in left-handed hurler Matthew Boyd’s starts this season, and I like them to improve that record to 3-0 on Sunday afternoon. I’m taking the Guardians on the money line in this one.
