Series Preview: Guardians at Pirates
I’ve been to 23 Major League baseball stadiums, and, for my money, the Guardians will play a series in a top three stadium in the game this weekend when they meet the Pirates. Will the results be as beautiful as the environs?
The Guardians are 9-9 with a -19 run differential, 16th in MLB with a 99 wRC+, 29th in Baserunning Runs Above Average at -2.2, 17th in Defense at -3.3, last in starting pitching SIERA at 4.61, and eighth in 2.99 SIERA. The Pirates are 8-12 with a -18 run differential, 27th in MLB with a 66 wRC+. 28th in Baserunning Runs above average at -2, 19th in Defense at -3.7, 11th in starting pitching SIERA at 3.80, and 25th in bullpen SIERA at 4.05.
