The Almanac's Take

Only one lineup is confirmed so far, so don't treat this as a full slate read. The lead angle is Bobby Witt Jr. hitting second for KC — nine home runs and a .824 OPS, and he's not even in the cleanup spot, which means more at-bats with the lineup turning over. On the Cleveland side, David Fry is the quieter name worth noting: .863 OPS out of the four-hole is a genuine production line, not a small-sample fluke at three home runs. Rhys Hoskins follows him at fifth with six HR and a .795 OPS, so the middle of the Guardians order has some teeth.
