Sure, Tigers' left-hander Tarik Skubal has emerged as an elite pitcher and will likely be the American League Cy Award winner, but Guardians lefty Matthew Boyd can also be proud of his 2.72 ERA over eight starts. Also, he's relatively fresh, having returned to the majors in mid-August.

Skubal, meanwhile, has been logging a lot of innings, and although he held Cleveland to one run over seven innings on July 22, note that he allowed 10 hits.

The Guardians are 30-11 against left-handed starters on the season.
