Episode Details

Cleveland Guardians vs. Baltimore Orioles by Tony T.

Baltimore owns the lower starter ERA, but this is not a one-number pitching comparison. Bibee has the cleaner WHIP at 1.18, while Young has allowed more traffic at 1.31 despite his 3.42 ERA. Both right-handers carry below-20% strikeout rates, so each defense should be asked to convert a meaningful volume of balls in play.
