Not sure if it's a Sportsnet+ exclusive game or what, but I see all 4 games on SN+ online.

Fangraph odds:

Tigers - 58.9%   Guardians - 41.1%

Yankees - 64.9%    Red Sox - 35.1%

Cubs - 53.4%   Padres - 46.6%

Dodgers - 65.8%   Reds - 34.2%

The win %'s for the Yanks and Dodgers is as high as I've ever seen for a playoff series.  I'm going with the Guardians, Yankees, Cubs and Dodgers.

[G-Snarls]

Tigers

Yankees

Dodgers

Padres

Cleveland's defense spotting Skubal a run doesn't bode well 

[Wake n bake]

I got

detroit in 2

boston in 3

reds in 3

padres in 2 

 

[Orgfiller]

Detroit with the early lead and Skubal painting 100 on the black. Brutal start for the Guardians.

[Brownie19]

I said this already today, but I think it's insane the Guardians team is in the playoffs.  Look at this f*cking lineup!  I've listed their wRC+ next to their name

Kwan - 99

Martinez - 74

Ramirez - 157

Rodriguez - 74

Manzardo - 113

Arias - 77

Rocchio - 77

Noel - 28

Hedges - 51

That is so gross.  Stephen Vogt has to be the AL Manager of the Year.

Third worst offense in the league by wRC+. 3rd best defense, 7th best baserunning team. Starters are only 19th best and bullpen is 3rd best. Like I said before, they'll slap hit and run you wild on the bases since it's the only way they can consistently score runs outside hoping Jose Ramirez is coming up to hit every AB. Excellent defense and a good bullpen is how they stay in games if they can get a lead.

[Orgfiller]

Home plate ump with the tight zone early on. Already seen multiple potential strikeout pitches not called despite being rather definitively in the strikezone.

[Stangstag]

Wow I didn’t realize Kwan’s numbers had dropped THAT much since his hot start. I guess nobody is really mad they didn’t acquire him at the deadline lol

[G-Snarls]

CLE only got in because DET collapsed so badly and all on their own.  They've been lucky AF. 

[BTS]

Skubal is absolutely carving that weak lineup up. The slap hitting and base-stealing can start any time plz 

[G-Snarls]

How can you even get a bat on these 100 mph balls on the corners

[Orgfiller]

Skubal just walked Austin Hedges on 4 pitches lol. That's gotta drive you up the wall if you want Detroit to win this game.

[G-Snarls]

This is fun!

Jays fans have have never been able to do this before 

[Orgfiller]

Gavin Williams is dealing which is making that error hurt even more right now.

[Orgfiller]

Camera behind home plate just got absolutely shattered. Kind of an amazing 1 in 1 million type batted ball.

[BTS]

That's a great PA from J-Ram

Sure was

But who is going to drive in the runs

Ugh, probably nobody. Rodriguez has been awful. 0-2 and the error that caused the only run

[Jays24]

The Cleveland lineup makes me want to puke man.  How is this even a playoff team.

Yes, I know pitching but jeez lol

A bloop here to score the run would be the most Cleveland thing ever. The question really is if anyone can make contact against Skubal.

[Jays24]

He looked safe live

[BTS]

I thought MArtinez was in there 

[G-Snarls]

Looks safe at home

There you go haha

[Orgfiller]

[BTS]

lol, not even close. Brutal call from the umpire
