Why we made this MLB moneyline pick

The Cleveland Guardians are -140 against a Pinnacle fair line of -129, indicating a -3.5% EV for this side. The White Sox's bullpen is TIRED with 186 pitches / 8.6 IP in the last 2 days, which is a potential advantage for the Guardians as the game progresses. Cleveland's starter, Parker Messick, has a strong 2.85 ERA and 1.06 WHIP over 101.0 IP, while Chicago's Sean Burke has a decent 3.69 ERA and 1.22 WHIP. The Guardians' L10 record of 6-4 with a 4.0 RS/g and 3.8 RA/g also suggests better recent form than the White Sox's 5-5 with a 5.9 RS/g and 3.3 RA/g. The HP Umpire, Nic Lentz, has an under lean (8.6 R/g, -0.49 vs lg). The LINE_VELOCITY_WITH signal for the White Sox (price +5c) is a toxic signal (-CLV) that is being faded here. Sized at 1u — moderate confidence driven by the bullpen fatigue and pitching edge for the Guardians, and fading a toxic line movement signal.
