- A.L. Central Total of the Week. My selection is on the 'under' between Kansas City and Cleveland at 1:40 pm et on Sunday.
On what may be a damp afternoon in Cleveland, I expect this game to move along at a fast pace with a pair of crafty starters on the hill in Seth Lugo and Parker Messick. The Guardians turned in an uncharacteristically bad pitching performance in yesterday's 8-3 loss as they were unable to make an early lead stand up. As they look to avoid the series sweep on Sunday, I expect runs to come at a premium. The Guardians bullpen is far better than it showed yesterday while Lugo is a quality right-hander that's familiar with getting outs against this Cleveland lineup (current Guardians hitters are 17-for-74 (.230) with a .643 OPS against him). Take the under (10*).
