Tigers vs Guardians Pick – MLB Predictions & Odds 4/19/23

The Cleveland Guardians and Detroit Tigers meet Wednesday in MLB action at Comerica Park. Let’s preview this game and give out a pick and prediction.

The Cleveland Guardians have scored 9 runs in their last 3 games and 3 or fewer runs in 5 of their last 8 games. The Guardians are 2-8 this season when scoring 3 or fewer runs. Jose Ramirez leads the Guardians with 19 hits and 9 RBI, while Andres Gimenez and Myles Straw have combined for 37 hits and 11 RBI. Cal Quantrill gets the ball, and he is 0-1 with a 5.47 ERA and 9 strikeouts this season. Quantrill is 2-2 with a 3.34 ERA and 31 strikeouts in his career against the Tigers.

The Detroit Tigers have scored 12 runs in their last 3 games and 3 or fewer runs in 7 of their last 11 games. The Tigers are 2-8 this season when scoring 3 or fewer runs. Riley Greene leads the Tigers with 17 hits and 5 RBI, while Spencer Torkelson and Matt Vierling have combined for 25 hits and 12 RBI. Spencer Turnbull gets the ball, and he is 1-2 with a 9.00 ERA and 10 strikeouts this season. Turnbull is 0-6 with a 5.10 ERA and 40 strikeouts in his career against the Guardians.

The Guardians are 17-7 in their last 24 road games and 35-17 in their last 52 overall. The Tigers are 4-0 in their last 4 home games and 5-0 in their last 5 overall. The over is 5-2-1 in Guardians last 8 road games. The over is 8-3 in Tigers last 11 overall. The Guardians are 3-7 in the last 10 meetings in Detroit and 71-29 in the last 100 meetings.

The Cleveland Guardians are the better team on paper and should be favored, but Quantrill hasn’t been great up to this point and the Tigers should be oozing with confidence given all of these walk off wins. Winning multiple games in walk off fashion is a shot in the arm and gives guys the belief they’re never out of a game. Quick turnaround. I’ll ride the Tigers momentum and side with the plus money.
