00:00Next, speaking of the American League Central,
00:02the Detroit Tigers win their midweek set against the St. Louis Cardinals,
00:06taking the final two games of that series.
00:08The Guardians, because of bad weather in Minneapolis,
00:11only two completed games against Minnesota.
00:14They lost the suspended game from Monday yesterday.
00:17Early did respond, taking the finale against the Twins.
00:21An American League Central duel this weekend in Detroit,
00:25the first of four DRS today in the Motor City.
00:28Jack Flaherty on the bump for the Tigers.
00:30Minus 142, that money line price.
00:32Tanner Bybee gets the start for Cleveland.
00:35Total at eight.
00:35What's the play today in Motown?
00:38It's 53 degrees, similar to what we talked about in the Bronx.
00:41There's no rain, which is positive.
00:42Instead of a wind blowing in,
00:44it's actually blowing out at double digits to center field.
00:46But still, temperatures in the low 50s never help.
00:48You take a look at Bybee on the mound.
00:50Last 126 batters he's faced over the past month.
00:53A 169 ISO, about average.
00:55And a 313 weighted on base percentage, that's about average as well.
00:58Much better than in season-long totals, where he got beat up just a little bit.
01:01I really like that Detroit lineup.
01:03I do.
01:03Left-handed bats can really get going.
01:05Kerry Carpenter, Zach McKinstry, Riley Green, Cole Keith, Trey Sweeney,
01:08the same guys that we speak about.
01:09And then, of course, Torkelson in the middle of that lineup.
01:12If we flip one over to Cleveland, going up against Flaherty,
01:14he has struggled a little bit here with his non-analytical numbers,
01:17like the ISO and the weighted on base percentages against lefty and righties.
01:20But having said that, I still look at the eight.
01:23It's cold temperatures.
01:24I'm always going to lean towards the under.
01:26Don't care where that wind is blowing here.
01:28Give me warmer temperatures.
01:29Maybe we look at an over here.
01:30But I can't take the over in this game here today.
01:32I just can't.
01:33Let's get some warm weather.
01:35It's baseball.
01:36It's springtime.
01:37It's snowstorm, right?
