Premium Pick

Cleveland had a big offensive outburst yesterday, blasting Chicago 13-2, but they had scored 10 total runs the previous four games, part of a 9-4-2 run UNDER the total. They face a Chicago lefty in Carlos Rodon (2-6, 4.28 ERA), who is having a poor campaign though he has a 1.52 ERA against Cleveland in five games. The White Sox are 8-2-1 UNDER the total when Rodon faces a team with a winning record, but this Chicago offense is terrible at #24 in baseball in runs scored, #20 in on-base percentage, and #27 in slugging. White Sox 3B Todd Frazier is 0-for-19 with nine strikeouts in his last five games. The team has been in a free-fall since a 24-12 start, riding a 9-23 run, including 3-13 on the road. Cleveland is home for the third straight game, winning seven in a row at home. The Indians have a talented arm going in Carlos Carrasco (3.40 ERA), with a 36-8 strikeout to walk ratio in 39+ innings. Cleveland is 16-5 when its opponent allows five runs or more in the previous game, plus 8-3-1 UNDER against a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30. Play Cleveland and UNDER the total.
