I really dig this one. Tyler Glasnow has hit this prop in seven straight outings and has a great history against Cleveland. All signs point to him having another stellar outing, as Tampa Bay is in the thick of a tight race in their division.
Cleveland Guardians vs. Tampa Bay Rays Prediction
The cool thing about this prop is that we have seen Glasnow hit this number even in outings; he has struggled. On August 19th against the Angels he allowed five earned runs and still managed to go six innings. With a total of 7.5 in this game, I don’t envision that happening but it’s good to know that’s possible.
Cleveland bats have faced Glasnow 36 times and have managed just six hits combined. That’s a team average of .167 against him in a small sample size. The only concern here is that Tampa got the day off yesterday so they have a rested bullpen. With that being said, Glasnow goes six innings routinely as of late and barely cracks 90 pitches. I don’t see him extended today, but I think he can hit it within his normal pitch count. We just need 15 pitch innings on average.
Cleveland sees the seventh fewest pitches per plate appearance so we’re hoping for some early swings and quick outs. Glasnow has a better night ERA, and each game means a lot at this point in the season. Let's roll!
