The Cleveland Indians have stayed within striking distance in the AL Central as well as the Wild Card race, so their series vs. the Tigers is going to be defining in terms of their future come October. The pitching matchup here has a big name for the Tigers and a not so big name for Cleveland with Carrasco on the hill. The tale of the tape reveals otherwise as Corrasco owns a 2.69 ERA on the season compared to Price's 3.33. Price has been torched in two of his last three outings. Carrasco has been ultra dominant of late at 4-0 with a 0.70 ERA since August 10th. He has also held the Tigers' potent lineup in check with a 1.54 ERA in five appearances against them this season. This is a huge game for the dog here, with hidden value in a very favorable matchup. Make the play on Cleveland.
