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?
