Oakland at Cleveland

In this matchup we get Oakland's ace, Barry Zito. Zito enters this one with a 2.87 ERA and he's been even better over his last three starts going 6.8 innings in each and yielding just 4 total runs against Minnesota, Texas and the White Sox. They'll need him today to overcome so poor recent performances at Jacobs. Oakland has only won twice here in the last 12 games but I like 'em today. Oakland is on a bit of a rush having won four of five games. In those five games, they have allowed a total of 4 runs while scoring 19. Let's ride the hotter team with the better pitcher.
