The Guardians are coming into this game with a 57-35 record this season, but they have not been playing well in their recent games. They have lost 3 of their last 4 games and they are coming off of a 10-1 loss in their last game against the Tigers. Their pitching has not been great recently as they have allowed at least 8 runs in 2 of their last 3 games, allowing at least 5 runs in each of those. They are going up against a Rays team that is 46-47 this season, but they are coming off of a series win against the Yankees at home and will have some confidence coming into this game. Taj Bradley is starting for the Rays here and he is 3-4 with a 3.23 ERA this season. He has been pitching very well this season and in his recent starts, allowing 1 earned run or less in each of his last 3 as well as 5 of his last 6 starts, and he has actually allowed just 2 earned runs or less in his last 6 straight as well as 9 of his 11 starts all season. He has also been much better at home as he has only allowed 2 earned runs combined in his last 5 starts there. The Guardians have a good offense, but they have not been playing well recently so this is a good spot for the Rays with Bradley starting as he will shut this lineup down like he has been doing at home all season. Carlos Carrasco is starting for the Guardians in this game and he is 3-6 with a 5.22 ERA this season. He has not been awful in his recent starts, but he has not been great either, allowing at least 3 earned runs in each of his last 2 as well as 3 of his last 5 starts. He has not been very consistent this season as he has allowed a lot of runs in his starts all year, and when playing on the road he has allowed at least 5 runs in 3 of his last 6 starts, allowing at least 2 runs in each of those. He is not going to keep the Rays from scoring here and their bullpen has struggled recently as well. The Rays are going to win this game at home.
