Cecil Fielders bring a record of 2-0. Run differential is in the black: 48 plated against 18 allowed over the season. As a club they are hitting 0.632. In five-score games going back from today, they are 2 wins and 0 losses. They are riding a 2-game win streak. In the AL, Cecil Fielders sit 1st at 0.0 games back.

Paul Molitors post 2-1. For and against sit basically level at 48 and 48 runs. As a club they are hitting 0.567. In five-score games going back from today, they are 2 wins and 1 losses. They won their most recent final. In the AL, Paul Molitors sit 5th at 0.5 games back.

What we expect: Cecil Fielders have the cleaner season line—wins, run margin, team average, and recent finals all tilt their way. Paul Molitors can still steal it with a big inning, but Cecil Fielders look like the steadier bet to control the pace.

Not real betting.
