Cleveland Indians vs Chicago CubsCleveland Indians
15* on Cleveland Indians +148


I look for the Indians to avoid the sweep Sunday in Chicago. For all of their problems in the bullpen, the Indians still have the better offense, particularly when the Cubs are facing a left-handed starter. So far this season they are 6-8 against lefty starters, hitting just .240 as a team and scoring only 4.0 runs per game. The Tribe are posting 5.8 runs per game on the road this season and their bullpen is due to close one out. Take Cleveland at a bargain price.

on Pittsburgh Pirates +128

Take the Pirates over the Rockies and their struggling starter, Jorge De La Rosa. De La Rosa is 0-5 and has a 8.29 ERA at home this season, and his numbers are getting progressively worse. Over his last three starts he has a 7.20 ERA and a 1.73 WHIP. He has a total of 13 starts this season, where he is 2-7 and the Rockies are 4-9. The Rockies have started a new winning streak, now sitting at 4 games, but I see the Pirates putting an end to that this afternoon.
