Predicted Outcome

Cleveland holds a clear edge here — both in pitching matchups and season-long market confidence. Logan Allen, despite a middling 4.16 ERA, has more experience in high-leverage starts, while Tanner Gordon is only on his fifth MLB start. Colorado’s offense remains limited and they struggle as underdogs in this range. Expect Cleveland to grind out a close win, possibly by two runs, pushing final scoring slightly above the total line.
