Cleveland (-110) for 2 Units
Indians are on an 11 game win streak at home and we'll ride them in this spot. The Tigers have had trouble at this ball park at 0-9. Detroit is struggling to knock in runs (left 10 runners stranded yesterday) and their bullpen is a mess (6.92 ERA). Sure, Porcello has done well against the Indians (4-0 2.28 ERA), but the new generation Indians are leading the league in batting average (.272) and if they don't get to Porcello (hasn't pitched in the 7th inning this season), they should deliver against the struggling Detroit bullpen. On the other hand, Indians' top pitching prospect Alex White has been hot in Triple A Columbus and in a good spot / good time to be called up. Unlike Detroit's Porcello, White has the backing of a steady middle relief and closer. Indians the call.
