Terry Francona's teams are known to have good second halves and this season is no different as the Indians have won 37 of their last 52 games and climbed within two games of the Twins in the AL Central. Minnesota is 1-8 in Kyle Gibson's last nine home starts versus Cleveland and in one appearance against the Tribe this year, he gave up three runs (one earned) on four hits in 3 2/3 innings. Gibson also allowed 15 earned runs in 29 innings against Cleveland in 2018. Meanwhile, Mike Clevinger has won his last four starts and he has allowed only seven runs his last six starts. Clevinger gave up a run on four hits in five innings in one start against the Twins this year. Cleveland has also won 11 of its last 13 road contests. Take the Indians.
