39 year old Greinke has pitched well at times for the Royals this year, but has struggled in June. His starts are 5 innings or under and his ERA is at a very poor 9.00 ERA for the month. Even when Grienke does pitch well, he can't seem to win a game as the Royals' relief pitching ERA hovers around the 5.00 mark. Not to mention the Royals are 28th in the league in OPS for the season.

The Guardians' right-hander Bieber is off a pair of poor outings but is a likely candidate for bouncing back on Thursday. While he has been uneven this season, he'll throw longer than Greinke and with far more upside. The Guardians' bullpen is, as usual, very sharp. They are 7-3 as a road favorite, and hitting right-handers more than 50 points higher than KC. The Royals still struggle at home, just 10-29 in Kansas City this season. I am wagering on Bieber and the Guardians to win on Thursday.
