Guardians’ Weather Dance: Sweeping Up Royals and Dodging Raindrops

Kansas City Royals vs Cleveland Guardians Prediction 6-6-24

The Cleveland Guardians took Kansas City’s ace for a spin on Tuesday, like a car in a tornado. After a brief weather-induced intermission, the Guardians are eyeing another knockout against the Royals’ next pitcher. The goal? Sweep the two-game series like a janitor with a caffeine buzz.

Fresh off their victory lap against Seth Lugo, who strutted into Tuesday’s game with a flashy 9-1 record and a sparkling 1.72 ERA, the Guardians decided to throw a wrench into his stats. Despite Lugo’s teammates giving him a comfy 5-0 lead through 3 1/2 innings, Cleveland’s bats woke up like they’d just chugged a gallon of espresso.

Josh Naylor’s two-run homer lit up the fourth inning, followed by Tyler Freeman’s seventh-inning two-run blast that tied the game. Then, in a comedy of errors, Royals’ shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. handed Cleveland the lead with a throwing error that allowed three runs to score. Guardians fans celebrated their 40th victory in the first 60 games, a feat achieved only twice since 1995. Party like it’s 1995, anyone?

Wednesday’s game was postponed due to rain, making it the universe’s way of saying, “Let’s save some excitement for later.” The rainout will be made up as part of a split doubleheader on August 26. Mark your calendars and prepare your raincoats!

With a red-hot streak of 16 wins in their last 20 games and a 19-4 tear at home, the Guardians are the third team this season to hit 40 wins. They’re sitting pretty with a five-game lead in the AL Central over the Royals, who are having a rough time, losing seven of their last nine games. Somebody give them a hug.

Now, the spotlight turns to Brady Singer (4-2, 2.63 ERA), who’s ready to face the Guardians. Singer’s track record against Cleveland is a mixed bag, featuring a 2-2 record and a 4.98 ERA in 12 career appearances (11 starts). In his last two starts in Cleveland, he’s given up 12 runs and 20 hits in just 10 2/3 innings. Yikes.

Cleveland’s Jose Ramirez loves facing Singer, batting .435 with two homers and two doubles. Steven Kwan is also a Singer enthusiast, hitting .389 against him, while Will Brennan and Bo Naylor are a combined 10-for-17 (.588) when he’s on the mound. Somebody call a therapist for Singer.

Despite these struggles, Singer has been pretty solid this season, allowing more than two earned runs only twice in his 11 starts. His last two outings were strong, giving up

Kansas City Royals vs Cleveland Guardians Pick 6-6-24
