The pitching matchup is Shane Bieber versus Dean Kremer. That is misleading. So are the Guardians being the favorites.
Cleveland is eight games below .500 on the season. Baltimore is 37 games above .500.
The Guardians are trying to keep their faint playoff hopes alive. It's not realistic. The Orioles have motivation, too, being just 1 1/2 games ahead of the Rays in the AL East.
Bieber isn't the Bieber of past dominant seasons. He was 5-6 with a 3.77 ERA before going on the IL following his July 9 start. He hadn't pitched since and will be on around an 80-pitch count.
Kremer is 12-5 with a 4.17 ERA. That ERA drops to 3.51 when he pitches on the road.
