Premium Pick

The Oakland A's may not have a roster that jumps off the page with big names, but they continue to win with a high rate of frequency. They have won the AL West two straight years, and appear to be on their way to a third with a 26-16 record on the season. Josh Tomlin is just another example of how Tommy John surgery is no longer a career breaker, and in some cases, pitchers come back stronger. Tomlin has been 2-0 with a 2.13 ERA on the season. Tomlin has faced the Tribe just one time, allowing just 2 runs on 3 hits. Oakland wins the games they are supposed to now 84-41 in their last 125 vs. a team with a losing record, while the Tribe shows no bite as a dog at 2-9 in their last 11. Take Oakland in this one.
