[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Cleveland Guardians (36-18) and Colorado Rockies (19-34) play the middle contest of a 3-game interleague series Tuesday at Coors Field. First pitch is scheduled for 8:40 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Guardians vs. Rockies odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Rockies lead 1-0

The Guardians saw their 9-game winning streak snapped in the opener Monday, losing 8-6 as the Over (11) cashed. The Over is 4-1-1 in the past 6 games, while going 4-2 in the past 6 road outings.

The Rockies have won back-to-back games against a pair of 1st-place teams, the Guardians and Philadelphia Phillies. It’s Colorado’s 1st time winning consecutive games since a season-high 7-game winning streak from May 9-15.

Colorado has cashed at a 6-1 pace in the past 7 games on the run line as an underdog, while alternating the Over and Under in each of the past 9 outings dating back to May 18.

Guardians at Rockies projected starters

RHP Triston McKenzie vs. RHP Ryan Feltner

McKenzie (2-3, 3.44 ERA) makes his 11th start. He has a 1.34 WHIP, 5.3 BB/9 and 7.7 K/9 in 52 1/3 IP.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Guardians at Rockies picks and predictions

Prediction

Guardians 9, Rockies 5

Moneyline

The GUARDIANS (-150) are a good play to bounce back at Coors Field. After having their 9-game winning streak snapped on Monday, Cleveland is a good play behind McKenzie.

The Rockies (+125) can’t be trusted with Feltner on the mound, as he has a 4.98 ERA in 21 2/3 IP in 4 starts in May. Ironically, that’s his best ERA in a month, as he had a 5.08 ERA in 5 April starts, and a 5.40 ERA in his lone March outing.

Run line/Against the spread

If you’re a little more on the adventurous side, the GUARDIANS -1.5 (+100) are a solid play at even-money on the run line. In 8 of Cleveland’s past 11 victories, it has won by at least 2 runs. If you like the Guardians to win, you should like them to cover the run line, too.

Over/Under

OVER 10.5 (-105) might be the best play on the board in this interleague battle in the rarefied air.

The Over has cashed in each of Feltner’s past 9 starts, but be a little careful, as the Under is 5-4-1 in McKenzie’s 10 outings to date.

The Over is 4-1-1 in the past 6 games for the Guardians, while the total has gone high in 9 of the previous 13 contests for the Rockies.

Guardians at Rockies projected starters

RHP Triston McKenzie vs. RHP Chad Kuhl

Guardians at Rockies picks and predictions

Run line/Against the spread

Bullpen fatigue could work against Cleveland here. Play the straight-up win and AVOID trying to get the Guardians through by 2.

Over/Under

Both starting pitchers are sporting expected-ERA figures markedly higher than their surface ERAs. The Colorado offense is due an uptick with some normalized clutch numbers. On a warm day in Denver, BACK THE OVER 11.5 (-108).

Pilkington (1-0, 3.57 ERA) makes his 5th start and 8th appearance of the season. He has a 1.54 WHIP, 5.6 BB/9 and 9.9 K/9 through 22 2/3 IP.

Guardians at Rockies picks and predictions

Prediction

Rockies 6, Guardians 5

Money line

This will be Pilkington’s first experience pitching in the thin Denver air.

The Guardians are 14-17 on the road this season but they have won 3 of their last 4 road games.

This is the longest home-losing skid the Rockies have had this season. They have uncharacteristically struggled there as of late.

I LEAN ROCKIES (-115).

Run line/Against the spread

The Rockies are the slight favorite on the money line but the Guardians are favored on the run line.

Cleveland is 6-6 ATS as a road favorite and Colorado is 10-8 ATS as a home underdog.

I like the Rockies to win outright, but even their losses have been close. Four of their last 5 losses have been by only 1 run.

If you like the Rockies to win, the money line gives you more value, but ROCKIES +1.5 (-170) is worth some action if you aren’t as confident in the straight-up victory.

Over/Under

The projected total is quite high for tonight’s game.

Only 1 of the Guardians’ last 26 games has had more than 12 runs.

Only 1 of the Rockies’ last 11 games has had more than 12 runs. However, 10 of their last 18 home games have had 13 or more runs.

That’s just too many runs to expect.

Take UNDER 12.5 (-125).

Guardians at Rockies picks and predictions

Prediction

Guardians 6, Rockies 3

Money line

The Guardians are only 13-17 on the road this season, but are playing good ball right now and have won 10 of the last 13 games. They took 2 out of 3 in  their last road trip against another last-place team like the Rockies, the Baltimore Orioles.

The Rockies are 16-16 at home this season and went 2-5 in their last homestand. They are 10-20 against teams with winning records.

Senzatela has alternated very good and bad outings in his last 5 starts and is coming off one of his best.

Take the GUARDIANS (-170).
